    That's a cactus, but to answer your other question: Cacti aren't able to connect to the internet despite looking vaguely like antennae, so it's a decent symbol to get the point across.

          some* dinosaurs predate the invention of the internet

          also the desert is a remote location less likely to get a signal

                  What dinosaurs were discovered to have evolved after the internet? Otherwise even if they still exist in some way they predate it.

                        Boring answer: T-Rex has proportionally short arms. It can't reach the Internet.

                        Actual answer: They didn't have a choice in that. They programmed it at gunpoint, held by a T-Rex.

                          And then runs. Forever. Until cacti or a crow kills it.

                            because having no internet feels like being in the stone age, when dinosaurs coexisted with humans.

                            (this was before Jesus invented the internet)

                                  Say this is a joke?

                                  The developers chose the dinosaur theme as a reference to the game's function, a joke that not having an internet connection is equivalent to living in the "prehistoric ages".

                                    So that you could play the funny T-rex game.

                                          It starts a dinosaur themed game where you scroll endlessly and have to avoid obstacles
