Here’s another concept art by Jeffrey Nielson of the Hazardous Cenozoic Era in Dino Run 2.
It’s a regular Ice Age going on here and we’ve got some exciting (and slippery) ice-berg physics in store for it. Also… Magalodons to wreck your day.
Don’t be Megalodon food! And keep running cause the super-avalanche is still on your tail.
Here’s some new excellent concept art for Dino Run 2′s Cenozoic Era by Jeffrey Nielson.
Avalanche is a new type of Doom to run from, while avoiding hazards such as wooly mammoths, sabretooth tigers, hostile cave humans & more!
Only 2 days left to get in on this action in the Dino Run 2 Kickstarter! We’ve successfully reached our goal, but the more we raise now, the sooner we can make this all happen. :)

GET ON IT!
Did you know? In Dino Run 2 we plan to make a number of historical eras for the dinos to run in (Yes, we have lore and a back-story for how this could possibly be.. possible) & escape the relative forms of DOOOM in each!
Emergent Gameplay
You can see in this example gif of some of the unpredictable emergent gameplay events that could occur in the game. Running in Dino Run 2 would be a different experience every time.
I think we’ve proven that it’s clear, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the world would be a better place if this was in it, and you can be part of making it real by contributing to our Dino Run 2 Kickstarter Exploratory Campaign! Give it some consideration perhaps?
Other Eras
We plan to launch with the Cretaceous and Paleolithic Eras, if our funding supports them all, and then we’ll add more later on as DLC, such as a Cyberpunk Future, Old West, Medieval Times, Mad-Max style Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland Future, racing in low gravity on Planet D & more. We’re open to suggestions too…

Do YOU want to fly through the skies on Pegasus, jousting and stabbing your spear at various attackers and bosses? Well who wouldn’t???
Now is your chance to get in on this flappy-horse action. We @pixeljamgames have given access to download The Wrath of Pegasus to backers of our Pixeljam Patreon.
This is previously unreleased game we worked on for quite a while, but never polished up for a final release. It’s playable from beginning to end, a little rough around the edges, but has some sweet, polished SNES/Sega Genesis style16-bit graphics by the excellent Dino Run 2 artist Jeffrey Nielson, including some nice “Win” scenario art as a payoff for your heroic efforts.
If you’d like to take a stab at this one, check out our Patreon page:

Thanks in advance if you join our cause to make Dino Run 2 and more games in the future.

Ever wonder what it would be like to roll up like a stegosaurus (fact), roll down hills & take jumps?
It would kinda be like this!
Do YOU want to roll up like a stego and help the whole world to roll up like a stego too? Visit the Dino Run 2 Exploratory Kickstarter to help make it real!

Oh my. How do you think this is going to turn out??
If Dino Run 2 can make its development funding goal, we will all be one giant step closer to finding out…
And even if you’re not interested in backing Dino Run 2, It may be of interest that we’re trying something different, highly responsible and transparent with our funding efforts that may be worth seeing.
We’re so glad to be moving the needle towards responsible, well estimated, realistic crowd-fund raising for video game projects. The industry needs some help & refinement, we’ve got some ideas & are trying them out on our own projects.
