GladiEATers - MilkBubblesGames

You can currently command over 50 GladiEATers! Each GladiEATer comes with 3 abilities, usually allowing you to attack enemies, buff allies and more.

Now, if you do the math (which I did with a calculator), that’s over 150 unique abilities that were hand animated in our favourite medium - pixel art. Give my compliments to our sprite artists and animators…

Now, if you remember from our previous dev blog, the longer a creature takes to cook, the stronger it is! So, as a Combat Chef, with a strict, limited time to cook every match, you need to decide;

Put more time into one or two mighty GladiEATers

Spread your efforts wide and get six weaker (but still quite strong) food creatures.

The variety of approaches to team building here means that no creature is ever power crept. Even the smallest creatures have a presence, even in the end game.

Most of the GladiEATer designs don't fall into the classic Damage, Support, Tank categories. We wanted to give our GladiEATers varied roles and different ways for you to play them.

Take for example our Fried Egg GladiEATer, which pivots around the Damage role with Yolk Beam blasting an enemy GladiEATer with heavy damage. Meanwhile, its’ other ability, Yolk Stare is a significant power debuff and Gooey Guilding provides a strong buff and shield to a fellow GladiEATer, embracing the Support role.

Alternatively, some GladiEATers take such little time to cook that they’re relegated to consumable-like effects.

For example, the Raw Egg GladiEATer can use Throw Guard, which prevents an ally from taking damage once at the cost of destroying itself – a common trait amongst all raw foods.

Hope you enjoy enjoyed this taster of the GladiEATer mechanical designs. We’ve got so much more to talk to you about. Be sure to comment below and join our Discord to ask any more questions.

Hello. This is Ferry and Ollie, the creators of "Defendun."

We are in the process of developing the game while taking into consideration reviews and discussions on platforms like Steam, as well as other websites. Currently, in the card box, players can choose one of three types of cards: "Special Unit Enhancement Cards," "-Type Enhancement Cards," and "Gold Cards."

We believe this is an engaging system, but due to imbalanced balance, situations have arisen where only specific cards are chosen. To address this, we are considering reinforcing the relatively less chosen cards to achieve a better balance.

We will continue to put in effort to create an even more enjoyable game, and we are determined to persevere until the official release.

We appreciate the valuable reviews and feedback we've received. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Ferry and Ollie

(sorry, I don't speak English
I'm using a translator, so please understand even if it's hard to see

I am studying English...)

Jurassic World Evolution 2: Prehistoric Marine Species Pack and Update 7 Out Now

Jurassic World Evolution 2 - Francesca Frontier

Hello Park Managers!

We're so excited to announce that the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Prehistoric Marine Species Pack is out now, alongside Free Update 7!

Welcome four incredible marine species and give your park guests an unforgettable underwater experience. You'll discover powerful, armoured predators and gentle giants, housing prehistoric reptiles that are bound to astound and amaze.

New Prehistoric Species

Archelon

The largest turtle ever discovered, Archelon boasts a hooked beak, leathery carapace, and large flippers. Your park guests are going to flip out at seeing this incredible species! You can find out more about Archelon in our Species Field Guide.

Dunkleosteus

There's no arguing that Dunkleosteus is a formidable marine species. With a massive, sharpened jaw, this voracious predator is sure to catch the eye of your guests as it feeds from your Lagoon's shark feeder.

Nothosaurus

There she glows...! Not only does Nothosaurus possess an impressive set of teeth and nimble frame, but you'll also be able to select a bioluminescent skin for them!

Shonisaurus

The graceful giant of the Late Triassic Period, Shonisaurus' size is its biggest defence against predators. With a distinctively long, skinny snout, your park guests are sure to be excited to see them, too.

Lagoon Rock Platform

Two of the prehistoric reptiles included in the the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Prehistoric Marine Species Pack will also have a brand new requirement for their enclosures: Lagoon Rock Platforms! This platform is designed to give both Archelon and Nothosaurus an above-water resting spot, so you'll want to make sure you incorporate it into your Lagoons for those species!

Free Update 7

Of course, there's also plenty to enjoy in Update 7, which is also out now - simply update your game to discover these features.

Give your guests a whole new underwater view with Lagoon Viewing Domes, which function much like Remote Viewing Galleries; you can even snap the entrance tunnel for these domes to your Lagoon walls, allowing your guests easy access to their favourite marine species.

In Update 7, you can also now enjoy brand new Custom Challenge Mode, where you can create your own challenges to share with your friends. Using over 40 customisable settings, you can create something truly unique, and we're excited to see what you come up with. We'll even be sharing some of our own in coming weeks, so keep an eye on our social channels.

Of course, that's not everything included in Update 7, and you can take a look at our Free Update Highlight to learn all about the Placeable Ampitheatre, Skin and Dinosaur Favouriting, and new Sandbox Settings. You can also see below for the full changelog!
If you're wanting to see how some of these new features (or the new prehistoric species) function in-game, take a look at yesterday's preview livestream here on our YouTube channel.

We hope you enjoy the new Jurassic World Evolution 2: Prehistoric Marine Species Pack and Update 7, park managers. What are you most looking forward to?

You can purchase the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Prehistoric Marine Species Pack here.
