Caveman Chuck: A Prehistoric Rescue Mission
Caveman Chuck throws players into a chaotic Stone Age adventure where Chuck, a lovable but clumsy caveman, must outsmart dinosaurs, swing across lava pits, and reclaim his stolen breakfast from a thieving T-Rex. This fast-paced 2D platformer combines slapstick humor, retro-inspired visuals, and surprisingly strategic egg-tossing mechanics. Perfect for fans of chaotic couch co-op or solo spelunking!
Features of Caveman Chuck:
🦖 Dino Mayhem: Battle stegosaurus bouncers, evade velociraptor stampedes, and chuck rocks at a grumpy pterodactyl boss.

Development Team
Created by *Stone Age Studios*, a indie dev trio known for blending absurd humor with tight platformer mechanics. Their previous hit, *Viking Vinny’s Taxi Chaos*, earned praise for creative level design—a strength evident in Caveman Chuck’s clever traps and vertical maps.
Competitors
*Dino Dash Deluxe*: Offers smoother controls but lacks Caveman Chuck’s charm and co-op chaos.
*Cave Quest 3D*: Focuses on serious survival mechanics, missing the lighthearted tone that makes Chuck stand out.
