Paleo Pines Needs Your Help

A lot of you have been asking what’s next for Paleo Pines and we wanted to provide our community with an update on the challenges we are facing. The sad truth is, the future is uncertain. 

For the better part of this year we’ve been working behind the scenes to create a plan for the next iteration of Paleo Pines, filled with stunning new regions, quirky new NPCs, plenty more adorable dinosaurs, plus eggs, babies and - yes - multiplayer. The job after launch seemed simple - listen to our community, provide a roadmap full of updates and DLC to ensure that our players can continue to enjoy the existing world… and double-down on that enjoyment with the plan for bigger, better, shinier Paleo Pines for you to enjoy with friends and family.

We've been searching high and low for a production partner, one that felt your love and passion to help us bring the next Paleo Pines to life. On several occasions in our journey, we were within a few small steps of the finish line, only to have circumstances beyond our control cause the future to fall through.

This isn't happening just to us. It seems the whole indie game scene is facing a sudden drying up of publishing and investment opportunities. Thanks to the unwavering dedication of our small team and the massive love from all of you, we've been able to support the first year of Paleo Pines on a shoestring budget. 

We’ve managed to keep the lights on… until now. Unless we can find a partner who is keen to see the Paleo Pines universe grow, we won’t be able to keep our team together for much longer. 

So, we’re making our situation public. Here's how you can help:

Do you know a publisher/investor who would be a great partner for Paleo Pines 2? If you're a serious publisher or investor and are interested in seeing a production plan, financial model, game design document and more, please reach out to kevin@italicpig.com. (By the way, Paleo Pines isn’t the only property we’re working on... Our talented team has a diverse collection of small, medium and large scale projects, for PC, console and mobile. If you’re looking for something fun and a little bit different, get in here.)

Can you help in smaller ways? Every little bit helps! Here are a few ways you can directly support the devs:

Have you got our DLC yet? We've just released our very first Halloween DLCs – a great way to support us while getting more gameplay for yourself.

Still playing the demo? Are we on your Wishlist? Please consider buying the full game today, or in the next sale. We promise it'll bring you hours of dino-tastic joy! 

Befriend a Paleo Pines plushie. These adorable creatures aren't just cute, our portion of the sales goes towards development. Our latest, Boo, the albino Styracosaurus, is available now. Our previous plushies helped fund our new Halloween DLCs and free update.

Order Paleo Pines merchandise. We’ve got dozens of fun items celebrating your favourite dinos available in time for gifting this year.

Even if you can't offer financial support, you can still be a hero! Share this post with anyone who might be interested in helping. Wishlist us, buy the game, talk about how it makes you feel, and share share share. The power of community is real, and every share brings us closer to making more Paleo Pines!

The team here can't express enough gratitude to the incredible Paleo Pines community. You've been with us through every step of this amazing journey, from the demo launch to the release last September, and through our adorable plushie collaborations with Makeship. You've become more than players and we couldn't have imagined building this world with a kinder, more supportive group.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting us on this roller coaster of a year since launch, and your patience and understanding with our current situation. Hopefully with your help, this won’t be the end of the Paleo Pines adventure.

Lots of love, The Paleo Pines Team

Oh to have a dinosaur that behaves like a big, friendly Golden Retriever.

Do you think I wouldn't forfeit all of my worldly possessions to Lucky? You'd be wrong. The Rancher literally upped moved to find a bigger home for their prehistoric child and that is a VALID life choice.

Slowly gonna make my way through drawing all of my dinos on my ranch.

Today we have Turtle, Ivory, and Tiznado

This game is so cute, and I love it.

If Paleo Pines stegosaurus wears santa hat, does she wear it like this or like this?

It doesn't snow in Paleo Pines, but what would our dino friends think if it did?

I bet they would be bewildered and look up at it with their big cute eyes.

Here's my two stegos, left to right: Shilo and Bluebell.

i need everyone to see how gorgeous @paleopinesofficial can be. i wanted to give nimbus the albino sarcosuchus some water time (even if we were only able to stand in one of the water crossings) and just happened to catch the sunset behind the waterfall in dapplewood forest.

Went to a pottery studio with @spooky-pumpkinz today for my birthday, and painted cups together. Here's what mine looks like pre-kiln. There our protos from Paleo pines (blue: Comet) (purple: Smarties)

OKAY! SO-

Was looking around desperately for any way to see what Pudding looked like, when I came across this concept art:

I saw the fact that Pippin is so small compared to their Dimetrodon friend that I had to draw them together.

I do not often draw humans since I tend to get overwhelmed when I struggle too much at drawing. But Pippin was the exception I was willing to make here, and they turned out to be really easy to draw, actually.

So here's these two having a nice nap under a tree.

It's hard to see here, but I did aim to make Pudding a bit chonky, just because I read that he eats leftover treats:

And that's all!

Thanks for looking at my silly fanart for paleo pines!!!

Do gallimimus necks get cold in the fall? I wish I could knit them snoods.

This is Berryburst (left) and Seabiscuit (right).
