Dino Trauma News

Hey Dino Fans!

Even during Holidays a lot of work needs to be done in Dino Trauma. We found issue with reseting progress for old saves (from versions 0.4.407 and below) and it's related to pretty big changes and refactor for Expedition update (if you didn't override save all should be ok now).

Huge Thank You for your patience and for reporting issues, and happy Holidays! 🧑‍🎄

• Save upgrade for old saves (issues with missing progress)
  
• Fixed issue with counting lockers for challenges.

Happy Holidays, Dino Fans!

This update brings some new features to Dino Trauma while also laying the ground work for future updates. From new game mode and enemies, to many improvements and fixes.

[h2]Expedition Mode[/h2]

Expeditions are optional activities during which you go to Abandoned Area and face incredibly strong opponents. These expeditions can be compared to raids - Agent Grant moves to a location with strong enemies and has to complete all the objectives within a time limit.



[h2]Crisis Monitor[/h2]

Crisis Monitor unlocks expedtion and makes story levels more unpredictable. Some content will be locked for you until you increase your Crisis Level (higher expedition tiers).



[h2]Inventory[/h2]

From now In Dino Trauma you have several items that can be bought, found or aquired. Those items serve different purposes from opening chests, doors, increasing crisis etc. Also we added Agent Grant avatar with visualisation of currently used gear.



[h2]Is the game dead?[/h2]

Nope! Honestly, it's not surprising that many people thought Dino Trauma was inactive given how little we've posted here. But I want to reassure everyone that it's very much still alive. Progress on the game has been slow, though, especially until recently. It's a two-person project (just me and my wife—who I married a few months ago, yay! ❤️). Since I'm working full-time as a Unity Developer for another studio, the only time we can focus on Dino Trauma is during my off-hours or when life gives us a break.

However, Episode 2 is about 70% complete! There's still some work left to get it to a point we're happy with, but... fingers crossed guys. I think it won't be too long 😊.
