[Let's Play!] Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis - FINISHED - 04/15/08
Posts
2-3 hours of playtime = 30 minutes of organization + 1 hour of formatting pictures + 1 hour of writing
Updates will come, I just need some time :P
The Dig teams are making me money
We’ve finally realized that we should vaccinate the ‘newborns’ before we release them into the park. (How do they come out fully grown anyway?)
And we even have a new option in our totally creepy dinosaur growing labs!
Things are going so well in fact that I decided to increase the park’s entrance fee by a small amount.
(Small meaning close to 25%...)
The first action for today is to take advantage of the new research and get one of these newfangled “Kentrosaurus”.
THEY ARE SO CUTE!
I totally didn’t know they were so small. I guess “Small Herbivore” should have given it away.
Our scientists are super speedy all of a sudden and have new computers that makes extracting DNA faster.
With the requests I’ve put in for more dig teams, this is a good thing.
The Board of Directors are super happy with me, we’re getting a lot more popular.
One and a half stars baby!
With this influx in both Dinosaur activity, and park attendance, I better get some security measures. As of right now, my only security is a dude in a helicopter with a gun…. And he’s usually out taking care of sick dinosaurs.
Some Security cameras should at least help us find the problems.
I just had to say the word ‘problem’, didn’t I?
It turns out Chompy and his roommate weren’t getting along as well as I thought.
Not only that, but one of the Dryosaurus has gotten sick with the one thing I haven’t researched a cure for yet.
Wait a minute… This Dryosaur cant stay in his pack anymore…. And Chompy needs a new roommate…. I have an idea!
Play nice guys!
Now onto other things…
I’ve been thinking about what Thorpe said about a separate breeding pen, and I like the Idea, so I built one in the back of the park.
I decided for some reason that this means I don’t need one in the ‘main’ pen anymore.
And I put the new Hatchery to work right away. I want more of these cute little Stegosaurus looking things!
And I might as well research this new disease that Dryosaur somehow caught.
I wonder how he and Chompy are getting along…
Oh… well at least I’m looking into stopping this stupid disease in the future.
(I was hoping that Chompy would eat him…
Oh well! No time to mourn! The new Kentrosaurus are grown and moved into their new pen at the front of that park!
I started work on growing a Brachiosaurus in the new pen and decided that I actually should have kept a hatchery in the old breeding pen. So I built a new one in there and started pumping out more Dryosaurus.
The Brachiosaurus grew quick. BEHOLD ITS MAGESTY!
Moving time!
So cute!
Enjoy your new home!
My original ‘batch’ of Dryosaurus has started to die, good thing I started growing replacements.
And all of a sudden new dinosaur is available!
Not only that, but I’ve finally researched all the vaccines. This, combined with the hatchery immunization, means that any dinosaur I grow from here on out should be disease free!
Joy!
Not only that, but the dig teams have finally found some remains of something interesting…
Now it’s just a matter of time before I have [strike]my own army of thought controlled killing machines.[/strike] many happy people in my park!
It was about this time that I realized that the pen built to hold the Kentrosaurus was pretty lame, so after a little construction and demolition of a rest area, they have a little more room.
It looks like people are liking how I run the place. We’ve been awarded another half star!
With nothing better to do with my money, I started to cram more dinosaurs into the pens. The main pen now will hold a bunch of Dryosaurus, a single Brachiosaurus, and soon 2 Kentrosaurus.
I’ll keep the other 3 Kentrosaurus in their other pen for ease of viewing.
I’ve also decided to grow Chompy a friend he can actually play with, so another Allosaurus is in order.
I wonder how Chompy is doing….
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE FUCKING DINOSAURS! EAT SOME FUCKING VITAMINS OR SOMETHING! FUCKING HELL!
5 seconds later.
Well, nevermind then.
I guess I should build another one.
Yey! Meet Chompy 3.0 and Gregory!
They look kind of lonely in that pen. I think they need to get their teeth wet… I did just recently learn how to grow Homalocephales and they don’t live very long yet anyway….
Ok I’ll grow just one and see what happens.
Thats all for now. Expect more this week!
(Honest! I just have to type it up.)
You should have a goof and just let the carnivores run wild in a full park.
Also, I opened part of the Chompy's pen and left it for a good hour. He didn't do anything.
Also, Chompy has a recommended security level of "High" and yet I've kept them in a Medium pen this whole time. Nothing has happened yet. Maybe more shit happens after you stop all the diseases.
Also, the second you get another large carnivore, and I mean the exact second, you put one of them in the Allosaur pen. Nothing like a giant dinosaur deathmatch to get the visitors coming!
Moar dinosaur anomnomnom.
FYI, it looks like you missed an image tag about 3/4 the way down. Been enjoying it so far though.
Gregory then decided he wanted to play with his new friend.
Gregory plays kind of rough…
But he did take his new friend for a walk around the pen! I think he was trying to be nice
That was until Gregory got bored.
AHNOM NOM NOM
Alright Play time is over guys! It is time to move into your new pen.
Soon after I moved them into the old Chompy’s pen, Gregory started to freak out.
Gregory! Calm down!
Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to [strike]feed him[/strike] give him that friend… he’s a little riled up…
GREGORY! THAT ISN’T NICE!
LEAVE CHOMPY ALONE!
Oh god…
Well… so much for Chompy 3.0 …
But that wasn’t enough for Gregory.
For the next 10 minutes Gregory ran around his cage eating goat after goat.
I think he went through at least 5 or 6. And that was after eating Chompy.
(As a side note, right about the time that Gregory went berserk I removed about 3 sections of Fence in his pen. I left it open for a good hour of playtime and he didn’t bother to leave… eventually I just closed it again)
The good news from all this chaos is that people like our park more.
We’re up to two and a half stars!
But at the same time, even after one of my dinosaurs went crazy and ate everything it could see…. People are complaining of the ‘lack of dinosaur activity’.
I’m convinced it’s the blind patrons that are complaining.
Because I didn’t know what else to do, I grew a Stegosaur and released him into the pen I’ve named “Misc”.
As soon as the Stegosaur was released, my Brachiosaurus died.
With all this craziness and chaos going on, I decided that I better hire some more cleaners. Between all the blood and the increase in visitors… I think I need them.
Right after I did this though… I got some amazing news. I can grow Velociraptors now
They are the cutest
most awesome things ever.
I decided that they needed a special pen, so I did a little renovation and combined two of my smaller, lesser used pens into one large one for them to live in. Here are their new private quarters.
As you can see, I couldn’t be bothered moving all 6 of these little things before opening their pen for the redesign.
I figured that since it was in a lesser used part of the park; things would be ok for the 5 seconds I needed to close it back up again. I decided to do a headcount when I was done just in case...
1...2.....3....4....5.....
Wait....
Didn’t I say I grew 6 of them?
Velociraptor – Population – 6
....
Oh fuck....
Where is the little bastard....
He didn’t make it far.... and seems to be taking a nap....
A napping raptor doesn’t stop this chick from being horribly terrified.
The screaming must have woken the little guy up, because he wasn’t were I saw him last…
Then I got a call from security...
I think we have a situation on our hands...
I'm aiming for another update this weekend.
I think I like Gregory though. He's got a certain spark to him.
Dear fucking God, he ate Chompy 3.0!
What did you expect? He's named after motherfucking Gregory Peck.

Silly.
Heres the Wiki Entry: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jurassic_Park_Operation_Genesis_2)
Or are you doing a LP sequel later?
I also nominate that you do the sequel after this one.
......D: I didn't know about this!
I guess a Let's Play Sequel is in order....
I'll get the game play tonight or tomorrow, with the image formatting and writeup done for posting the day after. So another day or so! I would have had the game play done this weekend, but I was working on getting my site ready to launch... which has a section for this and future let's plays... ahem
I can't find any screenshots for it though, does anyone here have it?
I'm pretty sure its uhh, not real.
That cover looks pretty fake, and its not mentioned anywhere on Blue Tongues site.
i thought i did a good job on the cover given i changed:
to
that 2 on the end of it was an interesting problem though, i had to get those and change them.
hehehehehe
