Hello and welcome to another DINODRIFTERS dev diary!
During Chapter 1 of Story Mode, you will use the Tranqchanger as your primary Drifter Gear. However, once Chapter 2 rolls around, you shall gain access to the Dinodriver - the most powerful piece of technology that the Dinodrifters can employ. This is what I shall talk about today.
The Dinodriver is a belt worn around the waist. It is made of metal and has a clear glass window to the inside. When a button is pressed on top, two slots spring up from within, upright.
Up to two cards can be placed into these slots. All Drift Cards can be used - Technique, Time and Animal, the last of which are exclusively used with the Dinodriver.
If a Technique Card is inserted, then the effects that would have in the Tranqchanger is bestowed onto the wearer (the player in this case). If two are placed, then both benefits will occur.
If a Time Card is inserted, then the player will henshin, like the Tranqchanger. If two Time Cards are inserted, in most cases, the Dinodriver will simply use the one placed in the left slot. However, if certain combinations are placed...
More on this to come later.
Finally, we come to Animal Cards. If an Animal Card is inserted, then the user will Drift into that animal's body. An animation will play, transforming the user. If two Animal Cards are inserted, the one on the right is used.

Combinations of different cards work too. A Time Card and Animal Card will transform the user into a Drifter and then an animal. Likewise Technique cards will bestow their benefits.
The Dinodriver is not the last piece of Drifter Gear in Dinodrifters. There are more that come with the arrival of new Drifters and new villains as the story unfolds. More on those another day.
Next diary, I will talk about flying mechanics and aerial animals in DINODRIFTERS!
Until next time!
