About Primal Planet

Primal Planet is a solo-developed metroidvania that combines survival and crafting with pixel-art visuals, set on a lush planet filled with dinosaurs. You play a cave dweller fighting to protect his family, and the story takes a sci-fi turn as you uncover the truth behind an alien presence.

You craft tools, weapons and mixtures, upgrade your skills and explore forests, plains, mountains and ocean depths, using combat, bait, traps and stealth against dinosaurs and aliens. A second player can join in local co-op as Sino, a nimble sinosauropteryx companion.
