12.3 Notes
We have taken all the upgrades from the last game-world and put it into a slightly smaller but more interesting game-world. The game-world now looks even more natural thanks to some advanced techniques applied to our terrain generator. The bigger dinosaurs will now be more rare, we have increased the amount of dinosaurs, made them roam and patrol more & improved their behaviour. The XP System has been revised and the requirements for skills have been increased. Building is now quite differently, you create platforms and build on them (a bit more Minecraft Style but we like it and we hope you do to!)
- Added new Game World representing the final game-world for Beasts of Prey. This allows us to extend the game-world at any time by adding more islands. (You might need to build ships at some point)
