A Life Before
You hatch alone. Pick an egg. You get one life, and most dinosaurs don’t make it to adulthood.
You need water, food and sleep. Be careful, you can be ambushed from an enemy when you least expect it.
Tap the pond to drink. Tap a carcass to eat. Tap a neighbor to see what it’s up to.
You can hunt, but prey that spots you will run.
You can fight, but the wounds stay with you.
One bad night can cost you days of recovery. A deep cut can still kill you long after the fight is over. The world keeps changing while you’re in it, with floods, droughts, fires, sickness and rival dinosaurs.
The art is all painted, with dawn, day, dusk and night. Headphones are worth it. It plays in your browser, works on a phone, and saves on its own.
This is a work in progress, and open to changes. Please feel free to leave comments, or email me at GravelRockStudios@gmail.com
