We are running a challenge over on our >>Discord server<<!
The challenge is simply to create something Paleo Pines themed. This can be absolutely anything from drawings, paintings, sculptures, animation, baking, writing, music, costumes, embroidery, needle-felting, jewellery, coding, anything goes!
Although we’re running this competition as something fun to do during lockdown, We’re giving away an ✨exclusive Paleo Pines shirt✨ as a prize for the most unique or creative entry (Any size & shipping is on us!)
Some early Paleo Pines character concepts! The player model in-game will be gender neutral and can be customised and accessorised to the player’s choosing ✨
Say hi to Mari! Mari is a field researcher who tracks and documents wild dino numbers and behaviours. She’s hard to miss, roaming across the wilderness on the back of her huge Utharaptor, Paprika. She will introduce you to the world of dino taming!
Allosaurus is a large theropod dinosaur found fairly early on in your adventure in Paleo Pines. They are desirable as a steed due to their fast speed and ability to sprint - but require more work to gain their trust. Their chipper and inquisitive personality make them an ideal theropod for newbie ranchers, but be sure you can keep up with their very high energy levels! Wishlist Discord
Meet the Paleo Pines Coelophysis! Coelophysis is a swift and flighty companion dino which are notoriously fussy. They might scream at random objects they dislike in their enclosure until it’s removed. Although common, they can throw off new ranchers with their high speed and agility. Too small to be a steed, they can accompany the player on adventures and help track down specific selected dinos.
Paleo Pines Concepts! Early concept art for the ranch and what different houses & structures would look like in-game.
We wanted to establish the world of Paleo Pines as simple, peaceful and close to nature so we played with the idea that all houses are built on or around trees!
Howdy Ranchers! We’ve gained a lot of followers recently- welcome! Thank you for supporting us and the game! We’d like to give a few small updates to all our tumblr followers (●'◡'●)

We realise that our posts here haven’t been very frequent- it’s been a very busy few months of development. We’re going to incrementally start posting all of our work from the last few months here so stay tuned for more dino reveals and new animations!
If you’d like to keep up with PPines on other platforms, you can do so here:
Desmatosuchus is an archosaur companion with a curious and peppy nature, often found near rivers and bushes looking for a snack! If tamed, they can accompany the player on adventures and sniff out food resources

This regal spino is usually calm and gentle, spending most of its time swimming and lounging on the shore.
Spinosaurus uses its paddle-like tail to swim, carrying players across bodies of water to discover new areas!
So excited to share our Spino with everyone!
Here’s my rework of its design!
We actually already had the spino pretty far in development, but when the news dropped last week, we went back and made some alterations to reflect the new knowledge✨
