Hunger, thirst, sanity, illness, bleeding, and fatigue are tracked, and seasonal shifts change what survival requires. Base building goes past walls and roofs into treehouses, with construction that uses branches, dinosaur hide, and mud. Combat reads enemy attack motions for timed guards, and spears, bows, and slingshots are among the weapons. Creatures can be tamed without killing them, then bred and ridden, including firing a bow from a Triceratops.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaleokin\u003c/strong\u003e: Co-op prehistoric dinosaur survival game with taming and base building\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTape 101: Liminal Descent\u003c/strong\u003e: Psychological horror game exploring liminal spaces using an RC car\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBatomon Showdown\u003c/strong\u003e: Monster-collecting asynchronous multiplayer battle game where you evolve Batomon\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e","blueskyPost":"Paleokin, a co-op open-world survival crafting game set among mammoths and dinosaurs, is one of Game Spark's three indie picks this week.
