About The Paddock

The Paddock is a short game about dealing with dinosaurs as a security guard, if you die you must start from the beginning. 

Features

  • CCTV cameras that are used for watching the dinosaur and electrocuting it when it gets too close to the fence.
  • First person game, you have a torch and a few other tools.
  • One continuous level that has you complete objectives as you play it. 
  • A story that unravels as you play through the game.
  • A short experience that can be finished in 1 hour. If you die, the game restarts. Gameplay
    Set in the remote mountains the player is starting their first shift as a security guard, alone.  The primary objective being, don't let the dinosaurs get in, while also trying not to get eaten. 

    As some of the Dilophosaurus begin to break in, the player must do their best to avoid them while also completing objectives. If the player fails in keeping the Giganotosaurus from breaking through the fences, the game will end. If the player is killed, that is it. The game will give you an option to restart or go back to the main menu. This game is meant to be beaten in one sitting. 
    Story
    The story of the game will be told through voice lines within the game as well as lore scattered through radio signals and notes. A remote research facility in the mountains is monitoring dinosaurs and how they interact with each other in the environment. The player is tasked with keeping the facility secure while everyone is gone. As the day goes on, more and more starts to go wrong for the player and eventually dinosaurs start turning up where they shouldn't be, inside the facility.

Hey Josh, I tried to like it but it has just too many issues at the moment for me to enjoy it: - the voice over is really hard to understand. I see that you're going for a radio like style but it's just really difficult to understand like this. - the stamina bar makes sense when your're being chased but overall it just feels like an unnessecary obstacle when you have to move across the whole compound so often with limited stamina. - there are a lot of places in the environment where you can see gaps between objects, like some parts under the fences, where you can see outside the Paddock. Sometimes objects are just straight up missing, like a bottom row container in the warehouse, [spoiler]when you are looking for the nests with eggs[/spoiler], where two containers are then floating above the invisible (or missing) one. - [spoiler]the shocking ability via the CCTV doesn't seem to work or only when it wants to. I waited for Cleo to sniff the fence, like the info box said I should, and then shocked her but it didn't do anything most of the time, whether I shock one time or a hundred times. And because of this I instantly lost at the end[/spoiler] - [spoiler] when you have to restart t…

The game is good. But the second battle with Cleo after turning on power, I can't restart. So I have to start over. But aside from that, good and spooky game.

Amazing little indie game. Would recommend! About an hour of playtime. Dev is good at building suspense. The solar panel cleaning noises made me think i was about to die lol. Small bugs but the dev seems really on top of them.

Worth a go, decent attempt for a first game, some bugs, but dev is quick to fix. Some gaming quality of life bits are missing in my opinion, I'd love to see a map, or objective marker, and a save feature in the future!
