One angle I'm taking on this dive into game development is cloning/modeling games off of classic genres and games themselves.
I hope to fill dino with examples across a variety of genres. This feels like a useful set of capabilities to develop, and it should make it easier to up-and-run with misc game jam ideas.
Maybe a good list to pick a new clone from, or a place to visit when brainstorming.

A Dino minigame project named 'dungeon-crawler' is available here:
This is so named as part of my classic-game-clones project.
A genre I've not identified for myself until recently, but that I'm now seeing is at the core of it all!
I suppose you could instead say Roguelike.
