Urvogel launched a Kickstarter campaign in May 2016, hoping to raise $55,000 to fund full development of the game. The developers sought to accurately recreate the area's prehistoric flora and fauna. Hell Creek was chosen as the game's setting due to an extensive amount of research that had been undertaken there. An emu, owned by one of the game's animators, was studied as a model for the game's dinosaurs. The development team conducted various research into dinosaurs to ensure up-to-date authenticity, an idea supported by paleontologists who expressed interest in the project. Turinetti finalized the basic concept around early 2013, when part-time development began, with the use of the Unity game engine. Saurian was largely inspired by Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis (2003), although other games were also influential, including Jaws Unleashed (2006), Spore (2008), and Red Dead Redemption (2010). He eventually began assembling a team of developers to put the game together. Over the years, Turinetti would carry around a notepad to write down ideas whenever he felt inspired. Turinetti conceived the idea for a dinosaur simulation game around 2008, after playing a dinosaur shoot 'em up game, which sparked an interest in developing a scientifically accurate dinosaur game. The game was conceived by Nick Turinetti, a dinosaur enthusiast who owned a 10-percent stake in Urvogel. Saurian was developed by Urvogel Games, based in Duluth, Minnesota. The player's Dakotaraptor parents sometimes resort to cannibalistic behavior, or may abandon the player. Older raptors ignore the player as a baby, but will fight back as the player ages and becomes a competitor for food. Upon growing into a young adult, the player can leap onto other dinosaurs and tear into them using its toe claws. The player starts out with a biting ability. A scent-tracking feature is used to locate other dinosaurs, as well as lizards which can be consumed for nourishment. The player's goal is to survive through life, which requires eating and sleeping. Īs a Dakotaraptor, the player has a family consisting of parents and siblings. New playable animals were subsequently added, including Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pachycephalosaurus, Anzu and Ankylosaurus. Originally, the player would take on the role of a lightly feathered Dakotaraptor. The game is set in the Hell Creek Formation during the Cretaceous. Saurian is a survival simulation game focused on the life of a dinosaur.
Versions were also planned for MacOS and Linux, but have yet to be released as of 2022. It was launched on Steam as an Early Access game on August 2, 2017. The game uses the Unity engine as its base. It focuses upon accurately simulating the natural ecosystem of the Hell Creek Formation in an interactive format where players take control of a dinosaur. Saurian is an upcoming survival simulation video game developed and published by American studio Urvogel Games for Microsoft Windows.
