So when it comes to the core game loop, it’s prey tight: You get your team of three together and pick the mission you want to take on. Can you speak a bit more about this, and how this dictates the design philosophy for the game’s missions and combat? Second Extinction describes its combat scenarios as “short but intense”. But it’s a challenge many are going through right now, and hopefully, we’ll be returning to normal in the not too distant future. Thankfully the majority of the team have been working together for quite some me now, and we onboard our newcomers as welcoming and supportive as possible. We’re not in the same room, we’re all interacting a bit differently over remote calls or chat.
Aside from that we all stay in touch and receive support from all our departments. This all happened in a matter of days, it was quite impressive. We have had outstanding IT, tech and operations support, essentially enabling us to continue working on the game from home. We’ve had to move our entire development out of the studio and into peoples’ homes. Of course, it’s been tough, as it has been for everyone in our industry and beyond. How have you been dealing with the challenges of making your debut game with lockdown restrictions in place essentially all over the world? And yes, this is our first title, and we’re very proud of our small, international team down here in Malmö. And how could it not? It’s a great pitch, and we’ve ended up going along with it. It was one of his final pitches before he moved on, and the overall idea of “Evil Mutated Dinosaurs have taken over the planet” kind of stuck with us.
The idea actually came from one of our founders, Christopher Sundberg. "This is our first title, and we’re very proud of our small, international team down here in Malmö."Īs a newly formed studio, what drove you to landing on Second Extinction for your debut project?
You can read our conversation with lead producer Brynley Gibson below. As their debut title, the co-op first person shooter is looking like an interesting prospect, and to learn more about the game, we recently sent across some of our questions about it to its developers. Video games – like all other entertainment media – have had a long-standing love affair with the idea of going up against dinosaurs, and later this year, Systemic Reaction’s Second Extinction will be toying with that idea once again.
