History

Dino Cleanup is a solo-developed project by Caden Marofke. Dino Cleanup started as Caden's side project in mid-2023, and is now his full-time focus. The project was created from Caden's desire to make a wholesome non-violent game with an environmental message that potentially encourages players to clean up their local environment after game sessions. The game has many influences from Caden's childhood, including numerous Nintendo 64 and Gamecube titles, and is targeted at all audiences. Karina Lebedeva included her 3D modeling prowess for most of the 3D models in the game, and Cody Edwards created the main theme used in all of the promotional material so far. Liam Berry was recently added to the game to create an original soundtrack. The game is planned to release some time in 2026 on Steam for Windows and macOS. Dino Cleanup hopes to provide players with a fun, colourful, wholesome, and satisfying experience to share with all of their loved ones.
