Parkasaurus - Takiyah


Time to wipe off the dust on my keyboard and make a Steam post! Hi friends! 2 updates:

1) As you can see above, we're in the Earth Appreciation Festival at 70% discount! This festival is a great vibe and a nice reminder that we have some work to do fix up the planet otherwise, we become the dinosaurs from Parkasaurus :) Great time to pick up a copy of Parkasaurus for you or a friend!

2) What are we even doing??? Great question from the back. We are aiming to announce new game in June! To stay up to date join our newsletter or other social media channels!

New Dino Toys

Hello! Well - it is true, we spend a lot of time working on our new game. But, but, we do like updating Parkasaurus once and a while!

Dinos now can exact revenge on those pesky security guards.



I asked all of you for some toy suggestions (Discord & TikTok) and this is what we added:

  • Barbell
  • Ice Block Meat
  • Ice Block Fruit
  • Hand Scratcher
  • Security Doll
  • Teddy Bear
  • Toy Traffic Cone
  • Volleyball
  • Rubber Duck
  • Outdoor Shower




There are some pretty funny ones - the barbell might be my favorite:



Anyway, I hope you're all doing well. We're exciting about announcing our new game in the near future!

Parkasaurus - Takiyah
Hey friends! Long time, we miss you.

Two things!

Cozy & Family Friendly Games Celebration
It's a funny thing - we never set out with the intention of Parkasaurus to be considered a cozy game, we really just wanted to make a unique looking game with cool mechanics! Anyway, we're really happy Parkasaurus was dug by such a range of players! Alright, why all the talking?

Well Parkasaurus is part of Cozy & Family Friendly Games Celebration 2024 which is pretty cool! If you liked Parkasaurus there is a chance you'll find another game to love.

Free Hat Update Live!
We added 10 free hats to the game! Who says Parkasaurus isn't a GaaS amirite? Seriously, I'll post more about this next week - but in the mean time you can do wonderful things like this:



See you next week!

DINOS VS ROBOTS

The time has come!
Well folks, if there ever has been a time to grab Parkasaurus or pick a copy up for a friend (sharing is caring) now is the time. Not only does it help our studio out, but also solidifies that Dinos are obviously better than robots.

Do you already own a copy?
If you already own a copy of Parkasaurus then how about write up a review for the game! This helps a lot.



What the heck are you guys up to anyway?
You might have notice things have been a little…quiet lately. Well, turns out Washbear Studio (us) are working on a new (unannounced) game! We’re excited to share more details and hoping to have a trailer ready for April or May.



Can I playtest this new secret game?
Maybe yes? We’re going to offer signups to try the new game out in the near future through our mailing list and Discord channel. Sign up to either to be the first to know!

Hi all! Hope you're having a great summer (or winter? living on a tilted planet makes things so complicated). We just released a little Prehistoric Wonders DLC. This means a lot of creatures that existed not that long ago! (either from extinction on their own or by human hand :( )





This includes: American Lion, Mammoth, Sabertooth, Megatherium, Eastern Puma ,Giant Capybara, Short Faced Bear, Dodo, Dire Wolf, Dwarf Pronghorn




As a side note we also have a bundle: Parkasaurus Deluxe if you're looking to pick up the entire enchilada.

Thanks all for the love and support!

Hey friends! The Parkasaurus OST is now available! If you want to hear the tunes of your dino park outside the game this is your chance.

Two really rad musicians worked on the sound track: Tim Grabowski and Jonnie Dredge. They're crazy talented, I don't even know how they do it.

Stay safe!

Hello friendos! Our favorite time of year is upcoming so we obviously are updating Parkasaurus with some free spooky DLC. The Ghostly Dinos now allows you to turn your dinos into marvellous ghosts who can also wear an assortment of Halloween-like hats. Why not make your fenced-in exhibit Halloween themed? Let’s chat about it.
Update:
  • Ghostly Dinosaurs
  • Frightful Fences
  • Costume Hats
  • Pumpkin Toy
  • Ghouly Guests
Ghostly Dinosaurs



Wait. Is a Trex not scary enough? How about a GHOST TREX?!. Step 1. Buy a pumpkin from the Gem Store. Step 2. Slot the pumpkin into a dino egg slot. Step 3. Scare everyone. Note: The Spooky trait is permanent so I hope you love spooky dinos.




Frightful Fences

Why use boring old metal fences for an exhibit that isn’t going to scare the socks off any of your guests? Start setting the mood with some spooky fences!




Costume Hats

Let me share with you how I decorate my dinos up for Halloween. While my favorite is obviously Space Hat (what dino doesn’t want to be a Space Dino), my top costume hats are:



  • Space Hat
  • Pumpkin Hat
  • Witch Hat
  • Mushroom Hat
  • Unicorn Hat
  • Scuba Diver Hat
  • Flower Hat



Pumpkin Toy
Want to see your dinos play with their food? The Halloween spirit is real with Pumpkin toys your besties can toss around!



Ghouly Guests

Check out the Gem Store at night to buy your own Scary Pumpkin to invite an entire new crowd; Vampires, Zombies and Ghosts. Here’s the thing, Zombies love balloons, and Ghosts love dinosaur gazing. Who knew?

Thanks. Xoxo

For those looking to extend the Parkasaurus experience, there also is Sea Monster DLC available!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1931130/Parkasaurus__Sea_Monsters/



We have another post that goes into detail about what you find in the DLC, but here is a quick overview:

What more is there to say, hats! Some aquatic themed, some not! You can find the new hats in the store and some unlocked in the Heart technology tree.



Toys
Find all your favorite poolside toys! Floating Flamingo? Of course! All your favorite birds.



Experimental Controller Support
Experimental! Parkasaurus plays great on the Steam Deck, and also with a controller. See below as I zip around the menus using a controller.


UI can be increased to 125%
The devs finally got to this amirite? See below what 125% UI looks like:



Modified Water System (rendering)
The water has a re-work because of the aquatic systems found in the DLC. We like to think the water looks much nicer, we hope you think so too!

Improved Performance
Build bigger, not slower!

Max people in park increased from 300 to 600
Will your park melt if you get to 600 guests? Maybe. Let us know!

Many bug fixes major and minor
Thanks to everyone who submitted bugs – we do read the reports and try to fix a lot of what you suggest.

Finally, a shout-out to the awesome community we have. Washbear has some exciting projects in the mix and we can’t wait to share them with you in the future.
