Dinothawr is a simple puzzle game made by Agnes Heyer and Hans-Kristian Arntzen AKA Themaister (original creator of the RetroArch/libretro project).

Features:
* 50+ levels
* Level editor
* Shaders for enhanced graphics, and/or plain retro graphics for pixel purists

This game comes with a customized standalone version of RetroArch serving as the frontend. This is the first game based solely around the libretro API.
