About the Game

Survive when familiar places become hunting grounds

Suburbs, streets, and forests are no longer safe. They belong to dinosaurs now.

Epoch Extinction is a top down survival shooter set on a modern island where dinosaurs have escaped containment and reclaimed human territory. Houses, streets, and forests that once felt safe are now places where predators listen, stalk, and strike.

You are not a hero. Supplies are limited, weapons are unreliable, and every encounter carries risk. Raptors hunt in tight spaces, react to sound and movement, and punish careless decisions. Massive predators like the T Rex roam areas you may have to cross, but can rarely afford to fight head on.

Survival depends on preparation and restraint. Search abandoned homes, scavenge tools and food, manage hunger and thirst, and decide when to move quietly, when to hide, and when to run. Some places offer temporary safety, but never for long.

The island is alive. Sounds travel, visibility shifts with time of day, and predators patrol dynamically. Familiar environments become tense hostile spaces where a single mistake can end a run.


Key Features

  • Tense Survival Gameplay
    Manage hunger, thirst, and health while scavenging scarce resources in a hostile world.

  • Dinosaurs as Persistent Threats
    Face fast aggressive raptors and overwhelming predators such as the T Rex that dominate entire areas.

  • Scavenge and Craft
    Loot abandoned houses, purify water, cook food, and improvise tools to stay alive.

  • Human Spaces Turned Hostile
    Explore residential areas, streets, forests, and interiors where danger hides around every corner.

  • Dynamic Atmosphere
    Day night cycles, shifting visibility, and sound based danger create constant tension.

  • Environmental Interaction
    Chop trees, gather resources, and use the environment to survive.

  • Environmental Storytelling
    Discover notes and traces left behind by those who did not survive the outbreak.


Every choice matters

Do you risk searching a house after dark? Do you confront the raptor stalking you or stay still and hope it passes?

The island does not forgive mistakes.

Epoch Extinction is developed by a solo indie developer and built step by step with community feedback.

Online co op is planned for the full release.
