The development for this game took place from the 20th of February until the 1st of May in 2024 for my first end of year project in college, as my response to the brief “Create a game that promotes discovery and adventure”. I created an educational experience for player where they can learn about prehistoric life as they discover fossils in the cave systems of the game, inspired by the effect and charm that BBC documentary “Walking with Dinosaurs” had on me growing up.
