Let's get the year off to a good start with this small update containing a number of improvements and bug fixes. steamhappy There's no new content, just changes to improve the game's stability and enhance the experience for players in both single-player and co-op modes. Here's the full list:

End-of-level screen

• Return to the map;
• Repeat the level;
• Move on to the next level;

Colored checkpoints

Improvements

• Bubbled players will now bound to left or right of viewport when they are too far from alive players. They wont disappear off screen. They will always at least stick to the extreme left or right of the screen so that they are always visible;
• A heart will now remain if the player collecting it already has 3 lives, allowing other players with less than 3 lives to collect it;
• Removed Twitter (R.I.P) and Newsletter social links from start screen. Mostly unused from players. Plus I no longer want to use X. You can find me on Bluesky instead. I often share news and my progress about the development of the game;
• Reworked stun and sleep animations to fix a couple of bugs related. No more additional objects creation every tick. This should fix lots of issues and enhance performance in bigger levels with up to 4 players;
• Fixed some steaks not falling down after crates being destroyed at end of level 11 (1st beach level with crabs);
• Changed old studio logo to new one on Loading page. Thank you, Solluco for the art;

Bug fixes

• As reported by nebelpelz, it was possible to fall down from a bridge in level 27 and get stuck. I couldnt reproduce the bug yet, but in the mean time I removed the invisible solid ground as a quick fix so that if dino falls down here, he will die and the level will restart;
• Sometimes moving the analog stick while overlapping a door unintentionally makes the player quit a level. I removed the ability to do so. Players can use Y button or up arrow from directional axis on gamepad to enter a door and finish/exit a level;
• When a npc level was already completed, dialogs were auto skipped and npc already started its actions. This leaded to some bad experiences such as in levels with npcs and boss fights. There was no real added value here so this feature has been removed as of now;
• Removed deprecated Construct features from project to keep project compatible with future releases of the engine;

Here's a regular update just before the summer holidays. steamhappy In a nutshell, this update is important because following a request from a player and his niece, I've decided to add a checkpoint mechanic to some of the more difficult and/or longer levels. I've also taken the opportunity to fix 2-3 annoying bugs here and there, add a new level (level 28) and a few improvements. Blah blah blah... I'm not so good at introductions so let's get straight to the details:

Level 28

Checkpoints

Improvements

• Enhanced pterodactyl bosss animation when players defeat him;
• If the food falls into the water, it falls more slowly and can no longer be collected;
• Cleaned a lot of old code no longer needed (approx. 152 event lines that were here for legacy);

Bug fixes

• If a player dies and the level is restarted, sometimes the black overlay did not disappear;
• As reported by this Steam review, the ant npc dialog sometimes was not showing up on the overworld map;

Since the last update in April, I've spent a lot of time replaying old levels. On my own, but also with my son to check that everything seems to be working properly in co-op. Unfortunately, we've found two glitches. One that prevents you from progressing through the level with the spider queen (level 23) and another that can sometimes ruin the experience in co-op mode. If one player dies (and is put in a bubble) and the other is alive, the level still restarts. That's why this update. And I'm taking the opportunity to add a new level with a new non-player character, 3 new achievements to unlock, and 2 accessibility options as requested by some of you. Here are some more details about what this update includes:

Level 27

Accessibility options

Quality of life improvements

• Added some fireworks visual effects to make the end of level 23 look more like a spider party;
• Enhanced automatic restart level animation when a npc dies or is blocked;
• Added particles to pea plants projectiles so that it is easier to identify them while moving/jumping around;

Bug fixes

• In level 23, sometimes Queen Charlene (the spider Queen) was stuck at the end of the level preventing players from completing it;
• Sometimes npcs pin sprite was shown opposite direction;
• Fixed an issue that could ruin co-op as if a player dies, the level restarts even if the others are alive;
• Fixed an issue where sometimes when hitting enter or using arrow keys at start of a level it showed part of the pause menu;

5 months have already passed since the last update and here I am again with a new one. steamhappy The content in this update is already paving the way for the next one, but after weeks of fixing bugs and improving some features I thought it was time to release them so that I can focus on what's next: latest cave levels. Here are some more details about what this update includes:

Additional food types

Quality of life improvements

• On overworld map, you can now see the total number of eggs collected;
• If an egg has been collected already in a level, this egg will have a fade effect of 50% opacity in that level so that it is easier to understand it has been collected already. You can recollect it, but it won't be added to the total eggs you own;
• Added some screen transition animations between the overworld map and levels;
• Simplified layout on character select screen by removing a couple of not so useful texts and replacing them with icons and input sprites related to input method (gamepad or keyboard);
• New input buttons and less texts on following screens: character selection screen, overworld map screen, dialogs in levels;
• Back action on overworld map screen now redirects players to character selection screen instead of start screen;

Bug fixes

• Start screen: fixed a bug where sometimes the Zzz animation was shown when baby dino was walking to the right of the screen;
• Savegame file: fixed a bug where egg collected was added twice to total eggs collected;
• Character select screen: fixed a bug where dinos for player 2, 3 or 4 were not shown sometimes;
• Level 17 (Beach): fixed a bug where it was impossible to break the egg crate preventing players to collect the egg in this level;
• Level 22 (Cave): mushroom was not falling down after tnt explodes resulting in players being stuck and can not go back up to finish level;

Title sums it all. I pushed a new update on the beta branch of the game which includes the boss fight with the pterodactyl, and 5 first levels of the cave environment.

The update should be stable enough in solo, but may have a few bugs here and there in co-op. Feedbacks on difficulty are also very welcome. I'll leave this update in the beta branch until end of August waiting for feedbacks from testers and players and then push it to production if everything goes well. I'll try to stick to this workflow in the future. I mean releasing small updates on the beta branch with upcoming levels, leave them a moment for testing & debugging, then push to production and so on. I plan to publish such updates every 3 to 6 months max, depending on my availability to work on the game in my free time. Talk to you later, Antoine G. ---

I am about to release a new content update on the beta branch this summer with 5 first levels of the new Cave environment. This level with the Spider Queen will be included, and will be the third one of World 3. The only last thing I need to push the update is a name for our dear 8 legged lady. In a recent tweet I asked for name ideas and honestly it was a blast to read your nice suggestions. As I did for previous NPCs, I created a poll to help me make a decision and I would like you to make a choice following your preferences. Level design-wise you start this level like other ones with a NPC. Once dialog ends, your quest starts. You have to help the Spider Queen reach the end of the Cave by toggling on/off red and blue blocks. If Spider Queen is not on the ground, she will spread a spider web and will stay in the air safely. Jump on her back to make her walk again. That's the main mechanic you'll have to deal with in the whole level, plus ofcourse a few extra secret areas.

Since the last update back in January this year, some of you recently reported that the game was not working anymore on SteamOS and on the SteamDeck. It took me some time to figure things out. Apparently this bug is on a more higher level as it affects all games on Steam that are using NWJS technology as a wrapper for native builds. Valve is also working on an official fix. Anyway before waiting for that official fix, here is a quick update we - together with some other Steam players - have been testing on the beta branch and that seems to work fine. If you want to learn more about this issue, you can find the related Steam forum post here. Thanks again for your help and for playing Baby Dino Adventures. I'm going back to work on World 3 levels. Talk to you soon, Antoine G. :coolcera:

Time flies, and I progress one step at a time on the development of the next content update. I'm currently finalizing the 2nd boss that Baby Dino will face at the end of the Beach level, and I can't figure out how to name him/her properly. I asked for a few ideas last year via this tweet back in December, and so far we received 30 different suggestions. Ofcourse I have some preferences, but I'd like to have your opinion as well so I put together a Google Form so that you can participate in the poll.

Happy New Year everyone! I wish you all the best for this new year. steamhappy It has been months that I did not release an update for the game so I thought it was finally time for me to do so, and what a better time than right now to start this new year correctly? Well, this update doesn't contain any additional content as I have been fixing issues reported by players on our Discord server for the past months and added some small enhancements on existing features here and there. The gaming experience should feel better, and especially for you playing in local multiplayer or online via the Steam Remote Play Together feature. Lots of bug fixes are mostly related to issues found while more than 2 players are playing together. Thanks a lot for playing Baby Dino and your help! I'll now continue working on this World 3 content update. So far 5 levels of 10 are already done. See you later, Antoine G. [hr][/hr] Below you can find a complete list of all changes included in this patch note:

• All moving objects (players, enemies, npcs, collectibles, etc) are now paused accordingly when you pause the game;
• Replaced overworld map tileset and sprites color palette with default one used by the game: ENDESGA64. Previously it was ENDESGA16 so there were less colors available which leaded us with less possibilities;
• This stars vfx when a player is damaged is now following its related player position accordingly;
• In local coop, if a player was dead because of water and then pop out of a bubble, this player would remain rotated. Now fixed;
• Dinos were not falling asleep anymore. Now fixed. Code was commented because a rework was needed. isSleeping variable is now on playerCollision object and not on playerSprite object as previously done;
• Sometimes hearts werent positioned correctly on their related player position;
• Do not show heart count of player on start screen;
• Seaguls werent triggered with other players than player 1. Added a pick nearest player to seagul condition to make it work;
• Disabled player collisions with water if a player is inside a bubble;
• Added missing translation to texts on character select screen;
• On player select screen, only player 1 was shown if we already selected players at least once;
• Disabled collisions for bubbled players when they collide with a boss. This could lead to unintended boss or player damages;
• Food icon was always showing meat regardless of food chosen. Now fixed;
• Some levels (like Beach - Level 15) did have a wrong total amount of boxes. So I added a function that counts automatically the total amount of breakable boxes in a level;
• Some metal boxes that were supposed to surround the heart box on a platform in roughly the middle of the level did not spawn in correctly;
• Input helper sprites position for doors and npcs dialog fixed. Sometimes these were shown completly off screen;
• Triceratops attack will now only trigger when it is visible on screen to avoid having surprising attacks;
• Triceratops should no longer start attacking while in a dialog;

Here we go for yet another update full of bug fixes and enhancements. The co-op feature should now be stable enough for you to enjoy it up to 4 players as I have been carefully debugging and testing each bugs you sent me. I can't say how much your help means a lot to me. Baby Dino couldn't be the game it is today without your help.. So.. Thank you again, and I hope youll enjoy these changes. If you find any issues, please keep reporting them here on our Steam Community forum or on our Discord server. Ill now get back to World 3 stuff, and continue working on these 10 new levels for the next content update - which is Cave. Talk to you soon, Antoine G.

• Fixed trap platform (as seen in Beach levels) issues where sometimes other players than player 1 could simply not land on trap platform and just fall through it;

Following your feedbacks with the recent local co-op update release, I decided to postpone the next devlog post and focus on following bugfixes/enhancements that you reported/asked for. No new content again, but these changes should make your overall gaming experience (solo or co-op) much better. Here is a complete list of what to expect with this update.

Enhancements

No more fall damage

• Fixed several issues where sometimes in local co-op, players could fall through moving platforms;
• Fixed several issues where players werent able to pop-out bubbles of other players in local co-op;

What a ride since the last stable release and patch notes back in April last year.. I got a new full-time job, 2nd son was born in August 2021, and we - my wife & our children - finally moved to our new house beginning this year. Well, Im not really here to talk about my IRL events (unless you want to know more?), but more to announce that this new stable release brings a lot of bug fixes and enhancements that I have been carefully working on last year. See all changes list at the bottom of this post to learn more. The most important news is indeed that the local co-operation mode is now out of beta and available to all players. No new content, but a devlog showing whats next this year will follow in a couple of weeks.
So, this local co-op mode will allow up to 4 players to play locally on the same screen, or using the Remote Play Together feature from Steam. Full gamepad support, but player 1 may use the keyboard instead if prefered while others must play using gamepads. Another important thing to mention is that I reworked entirely the game camera to make it flexible enough for whats next. Currently the camera will stick to a random player that is alive (normally the most advanced one in the current level). Players who die or fall will pop into a bubble. Bubbles should pop-out once they overlay another non-bubbled players around safe areas. Anyway it is possible to remain bubbled the whole level. If no players are alive, current level will restart and current progression in that level will be reset.
Additionally this update brings a lot of bug fixes, enhancements, and non visible changes that should enhance your gaming experience. This was also a good opportunity to prepare lots of stuff for whats next, but I'll talk about that specifically in a separate post. [hr][/hr]

Update installation insctructions

Using an archive save file

• Bugs & Issues (link to sub-forum)
• Feedbacks & Ideas (link to sub-forum)

Changes list

New features

• Local co-op feature up to 4 players out of beta!
• Characters selection screen - It is also possibilite to select different food type: currently steak, chicken leg, carrot, and brocoli are available;
• New camera system - Reworked the camera entirely. Added lerp functions to smooth camera moves and avoid eye sicknesses. In local coop, camera will always target the player with the highest X position value. This local coop camera is a temporary solution for now and will evolve depending on players feedback;

Enhancements

• Controls - Player 1 can play using a keyboard or gamepad, while others (player 2, 3, and 4) must play using gamepads;
• Level HUDs - Now invisible by default. Steak and crate counts are shown for a few seconds when you collect them, and then disappear. You can see them anytime while pausing the game;
• Crates - Added Squash & Stretch animations to all crates (wood, metal, metal wood, TNT, and Nitro);
• Player Lifes - If a player takes a damage and has no heart left, Dino won't rise up, and level will restart;
• Overworld map - One cloud chosen randomly will pull out his tongue for a few seconds - as suggested by @EighthRikks during his Twitch stream - Thanks for this funny idea!
• Level updates:
  • Level 5 (Forest): Moved a hive further to avoid a very complex situation where too much bees spawn at the same time (see screenshot below);
    
  • Level 8 (Forest): Added one non breakable crate at the beginning of the level to give players an alternative path to climb for these who struggle with bridges and bridge posts (see screenshot below);
    
  • Level 19 (Beach): Monkeys should no longer attack players while speaking to octopus;

Bug fixes

• Overworld Map:
  • Fixed a couple of issues related to the bottom bar showing inappropriate tiles in a few cases;
  • Removed unused enemies count on bottom bar;
• HUDs - Food icon will now match your food preference set on the character select screen;
• Bees - Fixed a bug where bees sometimes got stuck;
• Crates:
  • Fixed a bug while sometimes players can't destroy or jump on a crate;
  • Fixed another bug while player 2, 3, or 4 couldn't bounce on bouncing crates;
  • Metal jump crates - spawned via transparent crates - weren't making player jump anymore (as seen in screenshot below). This was a regression issue due to a rework on transparent crates behavior. Now fixed;
    
• Level bug fixes:
  • Level 13 (Beach): Heart animation wasn't starting automatically;
    
  • Level 15 (Beach): Fixed a bug where a heart could be stuck between metal crates in some cases. Thanks @Dark_Lake89 for the bug report!;

That's it. That's the news. I have been working on this local co-op feature for months last year, and I'm really excited to announce that it is ready. In beta. We had to optimize lots of things for local co-op including existing mechanics. I won't dive in into too much details for now. I'll post a detailed devlog later and a list of what you may expect next this year.

Opt-in Instructions

Another patch note for version 122 which fixes two important glitches reported by EvilPenguinKing from our Discord community and a couple of English typos. Bug fixes:

• If multiple ladders/vines are aside each others (as seen in Beach - Level 18), Baby Dino would sometimes bounce off unexpectedly.
• When you get hit while on a ladder, you get stuck on the ladder. You can move up and down the ladder just fine but you can't leave the ladder. Issue fixed.

You know how community is important, right? Well, today we would like to thank one of our Discord member (Creeva) who kindly reported us an annoying bug that made it impossible to complete the 2nd level of the Beach environment. Here is a small update that fixes this player collision sprite issue. Make sure to update the game accordingly before playing again. Note that if you previously installed the version 122, you should not loose your current progression.
If you run into troubles or find annoying bugs like this one, make sure to join our Discord server so we can help you and fix bugs quickly. Thank you for reading and for your amazing support, - Antoine G. A very big thanks to our patrons for their amazing support:

Hello dino's, While we already started working on the 3rd environment of the game (Cave/Mountain), we thought it was time to provide you with a small update. This one brings lots enhancements and bug fixes that you reported us these last 2 months after the Beach update launch and should make your gaming experience way better. You can view the full changes list below. Installation reminder Once you downloaded the update and launched the game, make sure you're playing the version 122. If not, you will probably need to uninstall and reinstall the game. Since we made lots of changes on the structure of the game again, you will need to play it back from its beginning. I'm still thinking about a better solution and I hope to provide it within the next content update. In the meantime, find below a save game file that you can use to start directly at the first boss fight right after the level with the snail (Shelldon). Here is the install instructions: [olist]

You have been waiting for months since the initial Early Access release, and we are glad to officially announce the first content update of Baby Dino Adventures! In a nutshell, here is what is included in this major update:

• The very first boss of the game
• 9 new levels featuring the Beach environment
• 3 new npc's to meet
• 5 new achievements to unlock
• New translation languages: Danish, Portuguese, Spanish Latino America, and Turkish

Howdy dino's It's almost Christmas so I wanted to let you know that Baby Dino Adventures is participating in the Steam Winter Sale 2020 and will be -15% off until January 5, 2021. If you haven't already, it's probably the right time to get your copy or gift it to your beloved one(s). Well, in the meantime thank you for reading thus far. Your support this year has been amazing and means a lot to me. What's next? You will hear some more news about Baby Dino beginning next year as we are currently preparing a lot of stuff to release the next content update. This one will feature the new Beach environment which contains 10 more levels, one boss, 3 new npcs/quests and some more bug fixes/improvements. Yes, that's what I was doing since the Early Access release back in July.. Time flies. And.. You know what? Here are a few GIFs featuring the next update as another gift for you steamhappy - Forest Boss -
- Beach Seagulls -
- Beach Monkeys -
- Beach Waterfall -
I hope you enjoy these so far. If you want to share with us your thoughts or help us beta testing, then you may join our Discord community or follow us on Twitter for more updates. A video trailer will be announced very soon on our YouTube channel, and a Steam event will be created once the update is ready. That's it for today. I wish you some very good holidays, and please take care of yourself. Thank you for reading, - Antoine G.

Hey, little dino's! Long time since I posted an update here. These past 5 months have been very busy. I have tons of interesting news to share with you guys, and I'm currently preparing a devlog post to announce what's coming next for Baby Dino Adventures. In the meantime, you probably heard about it already but it's time to nominate your favorite games of the year for the Steam Awards 2020. Would you mind nominating Baby Dino Adventures for the "Outstanding Visual Style" Award? This would help us a lot, and would be a good way to show your support. Talk to you soon! Antoine P.S.: Get ready for the Beach environment.. It's happening beginning next year! ;-)

Hello there, First I'd like to thank everyone for your support, and kind words. This EA release is getting me a lot of motivations for what's next. So this patch note is mostly about an annoying bug that came up with the latest update (v103). It prevents following Steam achievements from working:

• This is only the beginning of your adventure - Complete the first forest level
• Forest completed - Complete all forest levels
