You can also play online

Many of your friends have played the Little dinosaur game in chrome when the Internet is down

It can also be played with a net

Just type Chrome ://dino in your browser’s address bar and press Enter

It also automatically zooms in, making it easier to play with in a browser

Replace the baby dinosaur with another character

The first step

Open your browser and type Chrome ://dino in the address bar and press Enter

The second step

F12 Open console, find div with id offline-resources, find SRC in img tag with id offline-resources-1x.

Copy the content from SRC and paste it into your browser’s address bar. You can see the following image:

The last eight dinosaurs are the ones we see in the screen, the ones we want to change and replace.

The movement represented by eight dinosaurs is

  • One or two are jumps
  • Three or four are walking movements
  • Five or six are dead moves
  • Seven and eight are squat movements

The third step

We found some character images from the website www.spriters-resource.com/ to use as an alternative resource. There are many familiar characters like Mario

The fourth step

We downloaded all the resource pictures and original game pictures of little dinosaurs and replaced them with Photoshop. (If you are not familiar with Photoshop, you can ask a friend who is familiar with Photoshop for help. I’m looking for my wife, haha)

The final product looks something like this:

The last step

Export the edited image to PNG and upload a photo bed (as long as it is accessible over the Internet)

Go back to your browser, type chrome://dino/ to open the little dinosaur. F12 go to SRC in the img tag with the id offline-resources-1x and replace the address content with our address on the map bed

Rerun the game, and the dinosaur is Mario
