PROJECT: DINO

Project Dino is an ambitious multiplayer survival game that puts players in the skin of prehistoric creatures. Experience life as a dinosaur in a breathtaking open-world environment where every decision can mean the difference between life and death. From the first moment after hatching from your egg to becoming a fully-grown apex predator, your fate rests in your own claws.

This game is a realistic dinosaur simulation that presents players with the ultimate challenge: survive as a prehistoric reptile in a world full of dangers, competitors, and natural obstacles. The game combines deep survival mechanics with authentic dinosaur behavior, offering both solo players and groups an unforgettable experience.
In Project Dino, you don't begin your life as a mighty hunter but as a vulnerable juvenile that must first fight its way out of its egg. Through skillful survival, adequate nutrition, and physical activity, your dinosaur grows dynamically and develops stronger attributes with increasing size. This organic growth system rewards patient and strategic gameplay.


Authentic Dinosaur Simulation

  • Carnivores hunt other dinosaurs and feed on carcasses
  • Herbivores search for specific plant types they can tolerate
  • Piscivores specialize in fishing in bodies of water
  • Omnivores can flexibly switch between different food sources

Each dinosaur species has unique tolerances for different plant types. What is nutritious for one herbivore may be toxic to another and cause damage.


Dynamic Growth System

  • Nutritional Status: Well-fed dinosaurs grow faster
  • Hydration: Adequate fluid intake promotes growth
  • Health: Injured animals grow more slowly
  • Activity: Physical exertion through running and hunting accelerates development


Survival System
Project Dino's survival system simulates the basic needs of a living organism:

  • Hunger: Find and consume food according to your dietary type
  • Thirst: Regularly seek out water sources
  • Stamina: Manage your energy for sprints, swimming, and attacks
  • Air: Non-aquatic dinosaurs must monitor their air reserves while diving
  • Health: Regenerates only while resting with adequate sustenance

A special feature of the system: stamina and health regenerate exclusively while lying down in a resting state. Active dinosaurs must consciously take breaks to recover, requiring strategic decisions about rest times and safe resting spots.


Temperature and Climate System

  • Cold regions reduce maximum stamina for heat-loving species
  • Hot areas burden cold-adapted dinosaurs
  • Each dinosaur species has individual tolerance values for heat and cold
  • Temperature effects build up and dissipate gradually, allowing tactical crossings


Water System

  • Wave Simulation: Dinosaurs react to wave movements and are influenced by currents
  • Swimming and Diving: Aquatic and semi-aquatic species can swim and dive
  • Buoyancy and Depth Correction: Realistic water dynamics based on body size and mass
  • Flow Effects: Water currents affect movement differently depending on dinosaur size
  • Underwater Breathing: Certain species can breathe underwater, others must surface regularly


Living AI Ecosystems

  • Fish schools populate waters with realistic swarm behavior
  • Fish flee from players and avoid obstacles
  • Unique catching system: fish must be grabbed, then killed, and finally eaten
  • Fish can escape and flee after successful liberation


Land AI

  • AI-controlled dinosaurs with autonomous behavior
  • Territorial behavior and reactions to players
  • Carcasses of AI dinosaurs serve as food sources


Carcass and Decay System

  • Freshness States: Carcasses progress through stages from fresh to stale to rotten
  • Time-based Decay: Condition deteriorates over time
  • Food Amount: Larger dinosaurs provide more meat
  • Despawn Logic: Fully consumed carcasses disappear


Multiplayer and Networking

  • Dedicated Servers: Support for dedicated game servers
  • Synchronized Game World: All players experience the same persistent world
  • Server Browser: Browse and join available servers
  • Save System: Game progress is saved server-side and restored upon rejoining
  • Optimized Network Performance: Interpolation and lag compensation for smooth gameplay


Character Unlocking and Progression

  • Start with a starter dinosaur
  • Reach maximum growth to unlock new dinosaur species
  • Unlocks are tied to save files
  • Chained unlocks: Each dinosaur can unlock another


Egg Hatching System

  • Hatch by repeatedly pressing to break out of your egg
  • Hatching sounds and visual effects accompany the process
  • Different dinosaurs have differently sized eggs
  • Configurable hatching difficulty depending on species
