While Pyramid Games' Dinosaur Fossil Hunter kickstarter campaign is fully funded, surpassing the $20,000k mark, there are still 10 days to go and many more stretch goals to fund.
Funds collected during this period will allow the developers to finish their work on the game - by reaching the first threshold, the Early Access version will be polished, the next ones will allow for further development of the game. The studio plans for this title include the addition of dynamic weather, the expansion of exploratory mechanics or the personalization of the museum. And these are just a few of the improvements for which funds are being raised during the ongoing campaign.
