I get what you're saying, but this was way out of the scope I settled on for this jam x) Getting just the basic combat system was a nightmare in a half, and I did plan to get a few more mechanics in (namely, the ability to change the formation of your dinos) but I didn't have the time and I really needed to save as much time as possible for drawing the sprites and making the game as pretty as possible.
Next time maybe? I do intend to push the idea of dino battling further in a future project :)
