Do you remember? The 21st ooooof September! We certainly do, and while this entry in the Monthly segment is slightly delayed, we have a lot to talk about. In this edition of Dinolords Monthly, we will be checking out what tea and/or beans were spilled at The Spill, a live-streamed event at Coffee Stain Studios, and we will check out our new offices! Oh, also, we have a new devlog out, in which we talk about the latest visual upgrades to the game along with the new Warband system. Then we go to Gamescom and is showered with media attention.

We keep getting humbled by everyone sharing our interest in Dinolords, you could not ask for a better motivator to make something great! So thank you to everyone watching, and to Coffee Stain Studios for hosting such a cool event. [h2]Move it, move it![/h2] Our base have been at the center of Copenhagen for many years now, the last 10-or-so of which we were at the helm of running a coworking space called Spilhuset where we shared office space with a handful other companies with some awesome people. Spilhuset was located in an old charming yellow building in the middle of Pilestræde, all the walls were crooked and some of the doors could not be closed while others could not be opened. An era is coming to an end though, and on the 15th of October we will have closed the door at Spilhuset for the last time. It has been an amazing journey to work alongside so many talented people, witness each others successes and failures, share experiences and knowledge, but unfortunately we were not able to find a solution to keep Spilhuset running, which meant we had to move to a new office. In many ways, moving an office is not entirely dissimilar to moving a house or an apartment, over the years loads of 'stuff' accumulate, and packing it all down into boxes takes way longer than you think because many things inspire reminiscing about all the stories that have occured over the years. But now we are here at the new place, in a building thats at least 100 years newer than the old office, behind the same desks and computers, back in action working on making Dinolords the best game we can make. [h2]Dinosaur, Minosaur![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682436/2b9f7747718b83866d3c54dd9a68121c264192e3.gif[/img] We have some super cool work being done on some of the mountable dinosaurs, for instance we have both Viking- and British-themed saddles and visuals for the dinosaurs being worked on right now. This will help make it easier to spot who's who at a glance, but it's also just super nice to solidify the dinosaurs as part of the world with saddles and flags and regalia that fits with the respective faction. It needs to be clear visually when you get a dinosaur, especially if you 'take' it from the Vikings, that it is now yours, and it needs to feel cool, which this definitely helps with. [h2]Concept Sketch Showcase[/h2] Finally, it would be a shame not to showcase some of our super talented artist Lina's concept sketches, here are some for some armor and some units: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682436/f6e319ffb5c816e40058ea8a1c3559a3ec4617f2.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682436/e8f033962e239a24e8cf1b5c1b5a9c945749e4da.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682436/70511d948a1f4d4f4189ef02e674b53272cdcf1d.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682436/5f6f436bb3726d6829c2af9ff45f64a0957e58d9.png[/img] See you lords next month!
