Today marks 1 year since REPTILAND's announcement!
And to make this day special, I have some news to show! There's a lot we have to cover, so let's get right to it!
Teaser Trailer 1
The first teaser trailer for the game premiered a moment ago, here's a link to it in case you missed it:
Someone got out of the package...
Meet Frankie, a little dino boy! Your personal helper and motivator at REPTILAND! Make sure you treat him well, as he's a bit sensitive...
I really wanted to model him so badly, I never made an organic model before so I gave it a try, and I think I did pretty alright. Since I have little experience with bone rigging, I asked @DaRadsla 
to help me rig him and he got it done pretty quickly in a matter of few days!
Here's his concept art made by @MWaves 
which was made in March!
Game Page Updates
You may have noticed I made some changes to the game page over the past month or two, such as game trophies, updated Cody's ice cream render, and right now as we speak, I updated the header and added game screenshots!
Trophies:
The game will most likely feature 13 trophies.
Updated Cody's Ice Cream Render:
New Header:
Game Screenshots:
Tell me if you like the camera rooms! I'm putting everything I can into them! All hail C4D slop!
These are still subject to change, and more screenshots will come in the future!
Main Gameplay (Night Madness)
The main gameplay's code is around halfway done. The heating system is fully functional and half of the characters are coded in. Coding this game has been both fun and quite challenging so far. I've been tackling the character AIs to make them as advanced as I can, and trying to balance them out so they blend in with the gameplay without making them an absolute mess. Also yes, the game will feature a custom night with various challenges. Now, that's the main gameplay, I'll also have to make 5 side missions that will progressively unlock by beating each night of Night Madness. (Those have to wait until I'm fully done with the map.)
Oh! Speaking of the map, only 4 rooms are left to be done, we are getting close! I know it's taking a really long time but bear with me!
Just gonna throw these here as well...
Game Length
I was curious enough to calculate an estimated time length of how long it would take to fully 100% the game. Turns out, it would take at least 2 hours to complete it in one sitting and without failing. However, this is just an estimate, but I think the final product might be somewhere around that.
Estimated Release Date
I'm currently going with sometime around 2024, most likely late 2024 and I expect the game to be somewhere around 500 MBs in size, I think it's a pretty decent size by today's standards. Well, we'll see how things go out!
I'll keep you guys posted if some changes regarding the release date arise.
Sticker Pack
A REPTILAND sticker pack is now available, it's a reward pack so you get them by giving me a charged sticker!
These stickers are also included in the game as a purchasable office decoration in the game's shop menu.
Drawn by the mighty @MWaves !
Fanarts
Throughout the time, the game has received some fanarts! Any piece of fanart really means a lot to me and I want to show them off here, with each image linked to the original post! Go support them!

Greg will also make an appearance in Chomping with Chomper: Reborn by the @SkullCaseStudios 
team!
Now to the most dedicated person!
If I missed anybody's fanart, let me know and I will make sure to include it in the next devlog!
I never thought my project would really stand out to people to the point it would receive 2D art, let alone 3D models! This project means a lot to me, I made a lot of games throughout my time here (for nearly a decade) and none of them were as personal to me as REPTILAND. Really, thank you! Also letting you guys know, that every single piece of fanart will be included in the extras menu! If you wanna put out any piece of art, make sure to post it in the game community so I can see it!
Also, welcome @Aurdey 
(VA) to the team!
That's about everything I can show, I would love to show more but that has to wait! ;)
Thank you all for the continued support, for 1.4k followers on the game page and 4.8k followers on my profile (road to 5k...), it really means a lot to me, and see you next time!
