Hello! It’s been a while.

Today I’m happy to announce that Firekeep’s getting a long-awaited, much needed overhaul in this latest update. I’ve completely overhauled the UI, the core building systems, the level selection AND rebuilt the upgrade trees to make them modular!

This update has been a long time coming, and is based on all the great feedback I've been getting from players. In previous versions, the only major challenge was learning how all the different buildings upgrade, then choosing your preferred optimal building combinations, then using that combination until you reach the final island. With this update, I'm hoping to give players a wide array of options to express themselves and explore, while also having to plan strategically around their current building options - that being said, there's still a ton of buildings to come, so you likely won't be able to complete tougher islands in this build just yet. Don't worry - more buildings are coming, and you won't have to wait as long as it took for this update. There's also an updated Demo with all of the new changes if you just want to sample the new stuff!

Thanks again for your patience, I really think this update was needed, and I can't wait to hear your feedback in the Discord!

Ever wished for a certain kind of game and wondered why it hasn’t been made yet? That's exactly what happened to me with Primal Planet.

I’m Albert van Zyl, the solo caveman behind this dinovania. Today, I’m thrilled to share the journey and inspirations that have shaped Primal Planet, giving you a glimpse into the heart of this game.

Rewinding back to a few years ago when I was watching Jurassic Park for the first time since I was a kid. The nostalgia hit hard, reigniting my childhood love for dinosaurs. Growing up in South Africa, I was surrounded by breathtaking nature and wildlife, which left a lasting impression. Combining this with my love for metroidvanias, the idea for Primal Planet was born—a game where you could immerse yourself in a world of dinosaurs.

My vision for Primal Planet was clear: create a metroidvania where the environment feels alive. Not just obstacles to overcome, but a world where creatures interact with each other—predators hunt, prey flee. Inspired by the conceptual depth of games like Rain World, I wanted to craft a dynamic ecosystem that keeps players on their toes.

In Primal Planet, I aim to immerse players in the life of a cave dweller who must hunt, gather resources, and craft tools. However, I'm cautious to avoid turning these activities into a tedious grind. My objective is to ensure these systems are streamlined, sustainable, and enjoyable. Three of my favorite games — Subnautica, Far Cry Primal, and Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie — have been massive inspirations for Primal Planet. Although none of these are traditional 2D platformers (though one might argue Subnautica shares metroidvania elements), they all excel in creating systems that remain engaging throughout the game. These games also feature richly atmospheric worlds with incredible flora and fauna, all underscored by compelling, high-concept stories. If these three games had a pixel-art dinosaur metroidvania baby, Primal Planet would be it.

I've been a fan of metroidvanias since childhood. Back in the early 90s as a little kid, I played my first ever metroidvania called Zeliard—a classic crafted in 1987 that completely captivated my young imagination. Since that moment, I've dreamed of creating my own metroidvania, and now, with the necessary skills and resources at my disposal, that dream has become a reality.
I draw inspiration from some of the giants in the genre, such as Hollow Knight and Axiom Verge, as well as newer additions like Outbuddies and The Messenger. Each game has contributed to the fabric of Primal Planet, influencing everything from storytelling to gameplay dynamics. I'm also a big fan of the fluid movement found in platformers like Celeste, which has inspired the responsive controls in Primal Planet.

At the heart of Primal Planet lies a story designed to resonate deeply with players. My goal has always been to create a game that not only entertains but also evokes strong emotions and creates lasting connections with its characters and narrative. Over the past few years, my increasing fascination with story-telling structure has significantly influenced Primal Planet's development.
Drawing inspiration from a variety of sources, including Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal and H.G. Wells' War of The Worlds, has enriched the storyline. I even find value in unexpected places, such as the conceptually intriguing, but very poorly executed film Battlefield Earth. While controversial, its core ideas have contributed to the depth of the game's narrative.
Primal Planet is a story about the bonds of family and how far one would go to save your loved ones, while also reflecting modern society issues., But above all else, it is meant to be an entertaining and action-packed adventure on a dinosaur planet.


I hope this gave some idea of my inspirations for Primal Planet, but if you have any comments, questions, or if you would like me to clarify some things, feel free to ask.

Join the Discord community, follow on Twitter, wishlist and follow the game on Steam to ensure you’re always kept in the loop.

Thank you so much for everyone's support so far, it means the world to me!

When creating The Vigilante Diaries, we have drawn inspiration from many different forms of media to create a compelling experience with the aesthetics we envisioned.

As far as the gameplay is concerned, we drew inspiration from narrative RPGs such as The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante, Suzerain or The Pale Beyond. We wanted a story with choices, where the narrative was at the center, and there was a lot of branching and replay value. We were also aiming for a story focused on conflict and that was politically and ethically charged.



As for the vigilante himself, depending on your decisions he can turn out very differently, but within a range of possibilities. There was an article about Captain America that said Republicans would want him to kill Bin Laden, while the democrats would want him to expose the president, and those two sides are the kind of choice we wanted to give our players.

To create the image of our vigilante, we’ve looked at many different characters and stories, but mainly those with mundane superheroes, meaning those that don’t have powers and don’t use unbelievable gadgets. From things like Kick Ass by Mark Millar to Kill Or Be Killed by Brubaker and Phillips, and from classics like The Spirit, The Shadow, to more modern vigilantes like Question or Rorschach from Watchmen.



We have looked at other heroes like Batman or Spiderman too. Because, even though sometimes we forget, they’re also masked vigilantes who beat up people, and technically, that’s against the law. Does that mean that their way of fighting crime and helping those in need is wrong? Well, that’s not for us to judge or decide.

Finally, as for the setting and the general vibe and aesthetic of the game, we’ve also looked at movies and TV shows that represent the different types of vigilantes you can become in the game, such as V for Vendetta or The Punisher, movies from the 70s and 80s set in the United States of the time, such as Taxi Driver, others like Unbreakable, which addresses the plausibility of a superhero existing in the real world.



As you can see, The Vigilante Diaries is a mix of inspirations, but we’re trying to take a realistic approach to the situation and looking at the political and moral implications of it all. What do you think of these inspirations? Are you a fan of any of these works? We encourage you to leave a comment.

If you’re interested in the vigilante and his story, remember to add the game to your Steam wishlist.
