A former Call of Duty developer is making a game where dinosaurs fight each other with massive swords, and it got 10,000 wishlists in its first day on Steam.
Dinoblade is the kind of video game that makes me love video games. Developed by Jean Nguyen, who currently works at Sucker Punch as a senior gameplay animator, it first started off as a joke after a video they posted of a Spinosaurus going buck-wild with a Buster Sword had people clamoring for them to turn it into a full game.
The game's Steam description describes it as an action RPG that "takes place right after a major event that changed what we know about dinosaurs." Clearly, they've got massive swords now. "You shall set out on a journey as a young Spinosaurus that can use a Great Sword fighting against other Dinosaurs that uses weapons as well to stop an extinction." How can a dinosaur sword stop an extinction?
Maybe by parrying a meteorite. There's already a game that lets you parry a nuke. Dinoblade is now available to Steam Wishlist!
Started out as just animations for my demo reel, to gaining so much attention to make a game out of it so here we are. Dinoblade has been in development for a little over 1 year now and wishlisting it will help alot!
