Cretaceous Board Game

[Cretaceous Board Game @cretaceous_game]

Thanks to everyone that came and checked out the demos over at Ketch'um All Con! I have a few other conventions I am planning to attend before Kickstarter next year. I'll be sure to post here once it gets closer to the dates.

Near Pittsburgh and want a demo? We will have a table at the Ketch'um All Collectable Convention at the Heinz History Center this Sunday!

Good news! I have starting talking with a few different companies to get some quotes and figure out the specific numbers needed for a Kickstarter. I don't have a date right now, but soon. Sorry it has taken years, but I wanted it to feel finished before I pushed for crowdfunding!

Had a blast playing testing my game Cretaceous at Pax Unplugged. Thanks to all that helped test or just swing by to check out the game!

Origins 2023 was a blast. Thanks to everyone that came out and took the time to playtest Cretaceous. There were many games with experiences developers and excited gamers alike. The reception was great and even walked away with some solid ways to improve on the game.

It took a long time, but the art rework is done and I got the first physical copy of Cretaceous from the Game Crafter!

With over 90% of the art rework complete here is a quick look at how much the gate base tile changed.

Here is a quick look at the current state of the game. This is REALLY early so some elements are not complete or have placeholders.

Started on a Unity version of the game for PC. It would be a free addition to the kickstarter pledge. Still a way to go, but a promising start!

Been a bit since the last update, but I have been working on redesigning the support cards. Seemed more fun to show them all off at once!

Deinonychus was the dinosaur that inspired John H. Ostrom to first suggest that birds could have evolved from dinosaurs.

Going through the long process of reworking all the location tile art, so here is a look at the new oasis!

Oviraptors name means "Egg Thief", but related discoveries lead paleontologists to believe that they were protecting nests, not stealing.

Thanks to a well preserved breeding ground called "egg mountain" we know Maiasaura could lay up to 30 or 40 eggs at a time.

One theory for the back spikes of Amargasaurus is it could have shook its neck and banged them together to scare off predators.
