First thing's first, we have to do a bunch of dinosaurs puns, okay. It's just... the right thing to do.

Now that's out of the way we've dug up (๐Ÿ˜ƒ) some exciting news for you. In November 2022 we were fortunate enough to be awarded our second Epic Grant for Fossil Diggers VR (thanks Epic)! This has allowed us to really dig deep, polish our vertical slice and implement almost all major game systems. Weโ€™ve also unearthed (๐Ÿ˜‰) our dinosaur line upโ€”perhaps more on that in another post? Or better yet, what do you think our line up is? What do you want the line up to be? ๐Ÿค”


Here are a few gifs showing off the core loop of a puzzleโ€”Explore environment, solve puzzles, uncover fossils, builds dinosaurs. Simple.

Complete mega fossils and gain access to digsites.

Break open dig sites and collect fossils.

Complete the armature to bring dinosaurs back to life.

Roarrrr...

News item numero deux! - Dinosaur day! ๐Ÿฆ•

Today (June 1) is International Dinosaur Day and to celebrate, Epic Games has included Fossil Diggers VR in their dinosaur game showcase! It's not just a bunch of bones, check out the video below. It's dino-mite! ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

As our vertical slice has largely been complete for a while now weโ€™ve been charging full steam ahead, focusing all our energy on building the rest of Fossil Diggers VR. We're digging in and not afraid to get our hands dirty! ๐Ÿ˜’

Finally, weโ€™re in the process of talking with publishers to help with development andโ€ฆ publishing. Going forward, weโ€™ll be more open with the production progress and what weโ€™re up to.

To all of you whoโ€™ve been patiently waiting for Fossil Diggers VR, thank you for sticking with us! To all the new folks whoโ€™ve arrived, welcome!

Don't forget to join us on our Discord server, and also follow us on Twitter for upcoming news.

Until next time. Take care! ๐Ÿฆ–
