Parkasaurus Update #015 : Everybody needs a little private time
Lot’s to share for this Parkasaurus Update. In addition to improvements to the game, we’re also starting to tie in all the non-gameplay tasks that are really important like translations and reaching out to people who might be interested in previewing the game. There have been a few requests for a roadmap so I’d like to get that up for everybody sometime this week. Alright, let’s get to it:
Update 015 Topics
- A Little Privacy Please
- Late Night Dino Gazing
- Employee Micro-managing
- Seasons are back in style!
A Little Privacy Please
Our continuing series that dives a little deeper into a few of the mechanics in Parkasaurus this week covers the Privacy System. This is one of the mechanics we think really makes Parkasaurus unique from the other dino park simulators and allows people who love to design a chance to be really creative with both form and function.

Late Night Dino Gazing
As we start to get closer to an Early Access release we’ve been going back over some of our original features to figure out which ones we want available for day 1 EA, and which ones we need to receive additional feedback from the community about. The general consensus from our Discord channel has been night lights are awesome – so we had to do a little work to get our night lights functioning again with our new shader system.
Employee Micro-managing
The employees in Parkasaurus automatically find appropriate tasks in the park to do based on a scoring system; this consists of distance to the tasks, dire need of the task to be done, assigned priority, etc. Sometimes though you might see an overflowing garbage can that you just need to get cleaned; so, we added the feature to directly assign tasks to your employees in the world.
Seasons are back in style!
Autumn is here. Well, more is the case the two of us have been fixing free cam bugs. This includes inspecting all our seasons using the free cam. My favorite season currently in the game is autumn but I must say winter is right up there.

The two of us are trying our hardest to get the Parkasaurus word out to the interwebz, and we see all of you helping out! Keep it up! Tell your neighbour to Wishlist us, get your boyfriend to follow us on Twitter or get your boss to post about us on reddit or your company forums. Being a
