Cozy.

And another dual feeding.

The chicks have already grown so much since hatching! E21 is 11 days old, and E22 8 days old today.

Zoopark

Started working on another sandbox park in Jurassic World Evolution.

I want to make it look mostly like a regular zoo that just happens to house (mostly) non-avian dinosaurs, and I also want to take my time to decorate the enclosures more than I've bothered to in campaign and challenge mode. There's one hotel, but I don't know if this would be located on a remote island where a multi-day stay is encouraged while you're already there, it's more city zoo than theme park. You can also pretend some of the other guest buildings are indoor exhibits of small animals rather than dedicated to selling merch.

I've also installed a bunch of dinosaur mods, mostly having to do with making them more scientifically accurate. A few I'd like to still install require DLC I don't have, so I've left empty spots for dinos I can't have yet.

Here's a little tour of what I have now, and of course I'll eventually use this as an environment to run around in with an imaginary camera and take aesthetic screenshots of every critter.

Feedings and fluffings

Not my proudest work on park design but tulipahan tehtyä

Finally! "New fastest time" is for this particular challenge, looks like it took me literally twice as long to complete this as Isla Nublar. Matanceros is actually the first island I tried on Jurassic difficulty, and after like ten failures in a row, I pretty much ragequit the Jurassic challenges altogether until a bit later I tried Sorna and it was surprisingly doable. I made the nightmare map I had a lot of fun with on Matanceros specifically to give myself a positive association with the island again, lol. The buildable area is smaller than Nublar or Sorna, and I think that at least is a factor in why this one was so tough.

Anyway, the Cerato skin is lovely. More highlights:

The ugliest Spinosaurus enclosure I've ever made. She just has enough of everything.

Maybe we shouldn't have put the steak restaurant that close to the Acro enclosure.

Really? You people want your dinos bigger, louder, more teeth, and most importantly more expensive for that 5 star rating, but you're happy to stay in a hotel that's on fire?

Well, that would probably at least make a nicer-looking hybrid than the other Diplo one we have available is. Carry on.
