Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Some new test footage of Jetpack Brontosaurus has been released. In this first video, it shows off how the Brontosaurus can fly around and land on the simple test level. From the new information, it looks like the game will be set in some sort of dream world. The colors change randomly and you can also get an X-Ray view of the dinosaur due to the jetpacks.

Jetpack Brontosaurus will include some other Dinosaurs as you can see by the concept art above of the Dream Stegosaurus. The concept art is extremely clever too. I love that this is some sort of nature-dinosaur hybrid and how the leaves are being portrayed as the Stegosaurus's spikes. 

There's also another video but nothing as pretty as the first video. In this video, it just shows off a simple design of the Brontosauruses and the ragdoll effects of the game. It's actually quite humorous to watch the retard versions of the dinos stumble around. 

Now that we know how it will look like in action, I'm left wondering what the game is going to be about. My best guess is that it will be some kind of puzzle game. What do you think? And how do you like the looks of the game so far? 

[Thanks, Go Man!]

I never thought I could grow to appreciate this game, but the concept is just so appealing.

I reckon the whole game is a complete middle finger up at Turok...he's no chance of catching them now! Come get your Turok pancakes while they're still fresh!

Had a lot of fun with Raptor Safari so this should be equally as if not even better

Well color me impressed. This is shaping up to be a lot more than I expected for a sequel. The X-Ray is too fucking sweet.

Its possibly the most ridiculous, awesome concept for a game ever. And by the looks of things, its going in directions i never imagined. God damn i cant wait.

Apparently it's a game about doing drugs and being a fuckin' dinosaur.
I feel developers are at last approaching what the community really wants.
All we need know is an action game where your a t-rex with machine gun arms and a business sim where your a demetrodon who sells ice cream.

Might be entertaining and good for hand-eye coordination puzzle gaming. I know you didn't mention the platforms the game will be available on, but can definitely see this being a nice PS3 puzzle game using the motion sensor stuff (fear my technical vocabulary, it's early and my brain isn't awake yet and I think I'm going to leave it that way today).

Haha, that looks... interesting. Pretty original. Can't say I know too many organic dinosaur games out there.

The x-ray effect is really excellent looking, and I know this game will be just as awesome as Raptor Safari!

I met these guys out at GDC and they were really cool. They did some stuff for us before I got here so it was great to get to meet them. From what I've heard, they've got some great stuff planned.

Dinosaurs and jetpacks. Pretty much two of my most favorite things in entertainment.

LOL, never thought such a random concept could really work, so I'll look forward for this.

And by the way, ogo2k 's ideas for dinosaur games are made of pure WIN
