Latest Updates from Our Project:

80% of Goal Reached
over 5 years ago – Wed, Jul 22, 2020 at 06:49:10 AM

We're hyped to have reached 80% of our goal this weekend! Not much further to go now to reach 100% but we still need all the support we can get. The early bird tier ends in 10 hours so if you haven't backed, now's your chance to get the game for a super discounted price. And if you have backed, we'd appreciate if you could share with any friends who might be into the game!

We've had someone snap up the Spinosaurus tier so far, which is amazing. Will we see someone do the same with the T-Rex tier?

A monstrous moment deep in the jungle. Another early concept piece by Max Schiller.

Early Bird Ending Soon!

We hope everyone's having a great weekend. There's not long to go now before the "Raptor - Early Bird" tier comes to an end. This is the last chance to grab the game for a super discounted price of £12. It ends at midnight, Sunday, west coast USA time. Go go go!

Great start to the campaign!

Update One

What an incredible first day to the campaign! Thank you so much to everyone who has backed the game so far. We’re currently at 14% of reaching our goal within the first 24 hours so hats off to you. It’s been amazing to unveil the game and bring you on this journey with us as the team has been incredibly hard at work leading up to this point.

Coverage

We’ve had some ace coverage so far and we’ll be sharing throughout the campaign. First off, TheGamingBeaver did a reaction video of the reveal trailer and of the Kickstarter campaign, which was awesome! He’s already a fan of the game. You can watch at this link: https://youtu.be/9tXLrsZXEOk

Key Points To Mention

  •  FAQs: We’ve added information to the FAQs to cover many of the questions that have been coming through so far so go check those out and do ask us any questions you might have.
  •  Solo Play: We’ve now clarified some information on the page around solo play. The base game will support 1-3 players. This means you can team up with friends for squad-based action or enter alone for a solo session in the same locations. Our goal is to accommodate both modes of play.
  •  Console support: Definitely a big question! We've shipped all of our previous games onto consoles and we have the same intentions with this game, especially with next-gen upon us. However, at the moment we're focused on delivering the game for PC. With that being said, if we start hitting our funding goals, console versions become more realistic.

Gameplay Teaser!
over 5 years ago – Sun, Jul 19, 2020 at 10:29:07 AM

We've just dropped a gameplay teaser trailer! Watch now on YouTube: https://youtu.be/3Emdd7_77Ic

People have been wondering what the gameplay looks like and today we're sharing a few teaser clips showing a glimpse into Deathground. There's plenty more action to come. All content shown is Pre-Alpha. A lot, notably the dinosaurs, animations and models, will improve during development. 

Hope you enjoy the teaser - watch, like and share it with your dinosaur/horror game friends! And of course, if this is a game you want to play, please consider backing it, if you haven't already.

Let us know in the comments what you think so far.

We've had our first Spinosaurus back the game!  Big thanks to Snarcra for their epic pledge to support the game. We're very close to 70% funded now.

One Week In
over 5 years ago – Sun, Jul 19, 2020 at 08:04:53 AM

Wow, one week in already and what a week it's been. It actually feels like a month for us! It's been non-stop over here at Jaw Drop HQ. It's been exciting to watch everything come alive with the community, especially in the Discord channel. Our Discord admin, "RaptorBot" is already a community favourite and already has its own Twitter account and dedicated memes!

We're now at 63% of our goal, which is incredible so once again, thanks to everyone for supporting the game!

We're gearing up to reveal a peek at some early gameplay content from our internal demo very soon so keep your eyes peeled. For now you can check out the GIFs on the Kickstarter page, which are from the demo as well as a couple of snippets here:

We've now introduced a new tier, "Raptors - Trio Edition." This is very much like the co-operative edition but instead of 2 copies, you get 3 and at a discounted price than buying 3 copies of the standard edition. Perfect for three friends to team up once the Deathground opens.
