So I hear the raptors could possibly hunt in packs ? That reminds me of a scene from the first Jurassic Park when he is scaring the kid hehe.

So may I ask what type of game this will be ? Open world survivor ? I have played a game called Primal Hunter and it is okay but a problem I have with it is its more survival then action and the dino AI isn't quite brilliant. I want to shoot and maybe explode a few dinos To like I AM TUROK. So question about weapons will we beable to carry more then two weapons? I like the old school games where you could have all weapons at once but you budget your ammo.

I also think a dino encounter should be scary. But lets not misinterpret fear from scared because you cant do anything about it. I like the idea of raptors breaking through glass and hunting in packs that will cause some fear to players but can we feel confident in our weaponry to fight back with them or must we result to hiding in a bush ?

Here's an update for you guys  :)

I've posted an interview with Daryl Mandryk, who is my variant cover artist and a good friend of mine. We both worked together on Turok and he's one of the best concept artists in the world, bar none.

Daryl has worked on SSX, Shadows of Mordor, the Def Jam fighting series, plus he's done many covers for Dark Horse, Star Wars and Conan graphic novels. I'm really happy we found a way to work together again, especially considering he's just as big a dinosaur fan as I am!

Hope you enjoy the read. Thanks again for the support, and if you haven't signed up for the Thunderclap pre-KS campaign, please do. https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/26923-savage-empire-kickstarter

We wish you luck with this game I supported on the link and shared on my social medias to :) I read the story also and it is pretty clean and I actually have some images in my mind of what some of the areas would look like in the game. Images like inverted cracked streets with a pit to a volcanic area with flames. The dinosaurs portals/pods/eggs are down there. With the streets looking as if animals live here now with vines and moss across the buildings and nature life growing through the pavements.

Old school sense of action is a good idea have you seen or played Shadow Warrior 2013 and or the new Wolfenstein games? They are the latest games that did great on capturing the old school feel while still keeping it fresh and new.

Anyway, you got my interest look forward to seeing something like this I have big interest in dinosaurs to.

Sounds like you have done a ton of thinking, planning, and work on this. I like the plot and idea sounds great. Its really nice to hear from the dev himself. Interesting photo you used on that support link. It looks like a Turok comic ;)

Hey everyone! Thanks for the link and the support of my project! https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/26923-savage-empire-kickstarter

A quick primer - I've been in software development for nearly 20 years now, most of it in gaming. Among other projects, I was senior designer and associate director on Disney's TUROK 2008, mainly responsible for gameplay balance, dinosaur AI, marketing, etc. On Turok 2 (sadly canceled) those roles expanded to include weapon design and storyboarding. After T2 got the chop, I started running my own studio but always had the itch to scratch re: dinos. I've always loved them and wanted to create an IP that didn't deal with the existing restrictions of TUROK, but could share similar themes of survival, strength and redemption - but in present day. The title I came up with is called SAVAGE EMPIRE (and if you're an old school Origin fan you'll appreciate the callback!)

What it's all about:
A massive earthquake has shattered the West Coast, tearing a large swathe of California coastline free. At the quake's epicenter, pulsing energy portals appear - random gateways to another world. Through these portals, ancient creatures reclaim their territory, killing indiscriminately and acting as harbingers of an even more malevolent force in the Pacific.

This is the story of a group of wetworks operatives, sent into the zone to retrieve the technology that holds the key while acting as the reluctant handler for a man who specializes in finding those who don't want to be found.

A thrilling tale of extraordinary people and extraordinary odds, set against a backdrop of the ultimate apex predators - dinosaurs vs humanity!

I'm happy to answer any questions you have about the Kickstarter, and Turok development in general. Thanks for your interest and sign up to help signal boost the campaign on June 2nd at https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/26923-savage-empire-kickstarter

Cheers!

Wow feels like alot is going on today! First I would like to say welcome :D As for the subject that is awesome I would support it big time. Maybe it can turn into Turok :) but either way cool news and if its better then all the Jurassic Park games that are available that will be a good thing because I didnt enjoy them very much. There was one old Jurassic Park I liked I think it was on snes. After that it got to cinematic. But black hawk is action packed. Nice news :)
