About This Game
β οΈ WARNING: The Remote Play Together tag is used solely to enable multi-device play and does not indicate any multiplayer functionality.
DinoSystem is a 2D top-down ecosystem and survival simulation. Play as a godlike overseer managing the ecology of an evolving island populated by dinosaurs β or as a human trying to survive in it, facing realistic survival mechanics and a deep character progression system that tracks your bodyβs physical adaptation over time.
π¦ A Living, Emergent World
Every element on the island follows biological and physical rules. Nothing spawns from thin air: will you hunt the last dinosaur of its species for a steak, or protect it from extinction and ensure its eggs hatch? These are the dilemmas you'll face β if you donβt go extinct first.
βοΈ Development
To learn more about the upcoming features planned for 1.0 and beyond, check out the development roadmap. Feel free to join the discussion and suggest new ideas!
πΉοΈ Game Modes
God Mode: Control the island's ecology, change the weather, trigger disasters, and observe how nature reacts.
Survival Mode: Start as a stranded human. See how long you can survive β and how your body changes with your lifestyle.
π World Simulation Features
True ecological simulation: animals and plants are born, grow, reproduce, and die. No artificial βspawnsβ.
Seasons and day/night cycle: gradual transitions with sun angle, temperature, and light dynamically affecting the environment.
Advanced weather model: dynamic rain, fog, storms, snow, wind, and sandstorms, driven by real variables like humidity and air pressure.
Realistic water cycle: puddles form, evaporate or turn into lakes depending on temperature, humidity, and sun exposure.
Terrain evolves: fertility, vegetation, and water presence can transform areas over time.
Dynamic fire system: reacts to weather, spreads with fuel and wind, and affects all nearby objects and characters. Wildfires triggered by lightning can spread and destroy forests.
Animal AI: survival-driven behavior with reproduction, parenting, foraging, and territorial conflict.
Procedural island generation at game start, based on player settings.
Real decomposition: items decay based on weather and environment, not artificial timers.
π§ Survival Features
Dynamic body evolution: your appearance and abilities change based on fat, muscle, and diet. Adapt for winter, combat, or speed.
Needs are systemic, not scripted: thirst, hunger, and fatigue respond to climate, weight, exertion, metabolism, and more.
Complex skill system: skills improve with use and decay with neglect.
Crafting & building: create gear, weapons, clothes, and build shelters (or find a cave).
Food system: nutritional values matter. Protein from meat helps muscle growth β but donβt forget to cook it!
Many more features will be added throughout development. Follow the roadmap, and get involved in shaping the game!
π Note for Laptop Users
If you experience poor performance despite having a dedicated GPU, Windows might be running the game on the integrated graphics.
To ensure optimal performance, open Settings β System β Display β Graphics, search for DinoSystem.exe, and set it to use your High Performance GPU (usually your dedicated graphics card).
