Prehistoric survival game Astrobotanica secures Kickstarter funding in one week

Could you survive in prehistoric times? What if you weren’t a human, but a stranded alien attempting to make their way on our planet? While Ark asks how you’d manage among the dinosaurs, new survival game Astrobotanica takes a different angle. As Xel, a highly intelligent but out-of-luck extraterrestrial who finds themselves stuck on Pleistocene-era Earth, you’ll have to learn about the world around you and deal with the locals if you’re ever going to make it home. In just one week since developer Space Goblin launched a Kickstarter, it’s already flown past its initial funding goal.
