Recreating Jurassic Park On A Playstation

This genuinely looks better than when the corridor crew recreated the scene.

[@TechSpec814]

I just watched that one and it almost feels like they didn’t try

[@whoisthis01]

To be fair, they used a generic asset rather than those made for a Jurassic Park fan game. They also had a short time limit to finish it instead of the unlimited time for this clip.

[@Darkjedi]

That shit corridor did looked azz compared to this

[@fabianarcila8161]

100%

[@TayNewNerd]

Yeah I thought it was the movie lol

[@JurassicProductions]

Dude, that VHS camcorder bit was insane, just from having such an iconic scene being seen from a different context, different angle... I would one hundred percent want to see more JP recreations or animations done in that perspective!

[@FoxUnitNell]

I thought it was from the actual film because it was so we'll directed and I was trying to remember whom in the film had gotten out of the vans to start filming during the movie. Sort of dumb idea for a person though it is a great scene concept.

I'm absolutely flabbergasted. Not only is that the most convincing recreations I've ever seen, you're also building what looks to be a tremendous fan game, with seriously impressive visuals and atmosphere. Spectacular work. Subscribed.

I really wish that Dreams was on PC :(

[@barrelracer318]

@@MasDouc yeah. I haven't seen many updates to it lately. Especially by the devs.

[@barrelracer318]

@@kyle44514wow. I didn't think of that. Dreams would be an incredible tool on pc.

[@arothmanmusic]

The fact that it is locked to the PS is it’s main limitation. Why would a serious game developer spend tons of time building something that’s exclusively available for free to other Dreams owners when they could use existing tools on a PC to make something much more widely available and even monetizable?

[@OccamsRazorMT]

*Thanks to these talented & dedicated devs, Jurassic Park Operations will be the best love letter to all JP fans.* JWE2 is great, at the same time you can see all the missed opportunities with their maps, example their 1993 chaos theory map layout hardly looks anything like the original park. Same with JWE1 return to Jurassic park dlc map. The care & attention to detail Krenautican and the rest of the team have shown to the most minute of details is simply astounding & unprecedented in anything that came before. For example, the motion sensors appeared only at the edge of the screen in film, hardly visible at all & unnoticed by most. They only appeared in full through concept art & a pixelated rendition within the SNES/NES JP game. Yet, these were still not overlooked by the JP Operations team. They also included the raptor pen underground viewing area, something that is only included in the script where Hammond explains to Ellie how they added eight-inch tempered glass set in reinforced steel frames as safety within the viewing area below, whilst their conversation gets drowned by that between Alan & Muldoon. I reiterate, Jurassic Park Operations will be the best love letter to all JP fans, unlike anything that came before!

[@funkymotha5507]

Thanks so much! We’re doing our due diligence to bring something new while staying true to all the lore across the films, books, comics and games. We’ve poured over pre, pro, and post production info. I go through the book once a month. It’s so cool to see comments like this. So happy you like it!

[@SuperKratosgamer]

JWE 2 is mediocre at best.

[@maxpayne69.]

Universal decided to take a crap over this insanely good love letter 🥺😢😭😣

"Here is how it's done in the final shot" - ad break. I wanted to say that I appreciate having the ad right there, before the ""payoff"", instead of breaking the flow of the explanation.

[@actionjohnsson6934]

I'm out of words, this was amazing! The VHS-camcorder puppet part was especially terrifying. And the fan game looks awesome too!

[@AdiusOmega]

This is undoubtedly the most faithful recreation of this scene that has EVER been done. A quick KZbin search will net you dozens of other attempts, some in much higher fidelity rendering engines and yet this one, done with Dreams is the best. Excellent attention to detail. I wish you all the best on your game, it's clear you and you're team are passionate about what is being done and the work shows. Splendid work!

[@Txndai]

This is unreal man. I'm an aspiring VFX artist and to see something like this made on a playstation feels almost like fiction....Well done man

[@PSG51]

There is just some insane amounts of potential here 😳 i'm blown away. And that gameplay teaser oh my god its just beautiful.

[@lalunafate]

Not only is your recreation fantastic, but the 2 minute game preview is more exciting than any other JP game I've seen. I love the vibe

[@Marcson83]

Holy crap dude! You managed to make more convincing CG than the last 4 Jurassic Park movies. Absolutely amazing!

[@imjustlookingformywatch]

I dunno. The jp3 cg is pretty good actually. Scaling is a little weird but thats not so much the cg. JW, Fallen Kingdom, and Dominion are all worse cg than the original 3 movies.

I genuinely watch that begin in part and thought ‘ok so this is the original, I guess the remade comparison will play after this’….then it didn’t, that was so convincing I mistook it for the film footage 😛 And that gameplay at the end, I think this is the most polished looking dreams made game I’ve ever seen! Will definitely give it a go when your finished ☺ I hope all the work you did to make this gets noticed by industry, their missing out on a great artist and game creator!

[@flowers2734]

Instant sub with notifications on holy crap that gameplay trailer was everything I wanted in a video game 😭 the dialogue and scenery gave me strong telltale Jurassic park game vibes 🥹

[@ProfKim]

A guy using a video game was able to create better VFX than the ones we see in She Hulk... C'mon Disney, give this man a job! Looking forward to play this game! It looks amazing! Congratulations!

[@BrysonRobinson]

Just hands down amazing, I’m honestly floored by how far you’ve pushed the dreams engine. The ONLY thing that told me it wasn’t the actual movie was the camera panning to keep the T-REX in shot, but even then that’s because I’ve seen the original too many times to count🤣. And your fan game “Jurassic Park: Operations” looks absolutely incredible. I would pay full price to play that game and it’s a crime that Universal hasn’t contracted a major studio to make something like it. The detail, atmosphere, interactions with the other driver, the subtle noises of the prehistoric life, and of course the T-REX. I only have the minorest of tweaks and that’s just mainly on polishing the final product. You, my good sir, now have a fan that’s ready for the full ride you have in store and I couldn’t be more excited. And of course I liked, subscribed, and have notifications on. Keep pushing, your onto what might be one of the best fan games ever made.

[@miguelperezmoro4707]

Dude, you are a hero. You are a legend now. As a fan, thank you.

[@brice9996]

Jesus maann !! What have you just done !!!!...??? I have no words to describe. Especially that last two minutes of gameplay. I literally thought I was watching a sequel movie to JP from Nedry's point of view. I seriously got chills when I saw the part where the 2 explorers (Hammonds Visitors) crossed by. I really wish if someone could make a movie based on this script of yours. Really amazing work Brother !! Looking forward to the full game. Subscribed.

[@kurttomlinsoncompositions1067]

This was incredible! Not just how accurate the level of detail is, but also the gameplay at the end. Everything is so perfectly in-line with the original film aesthetically. The fact this has been done in Dreams is so impressive. What a piece of software it is. Hopefully it comes to PC one day. I'm a huge Jurassic Park fan and the gameplay at the end is really inspiring me to make some Jurassic Park inspired music! -Nice work!

[@miguelmedel5298]

The shaky vintage cam is absolutely terrifying when seeing Rexy breakout! It was PERFECT and appropriate for its time since there were only VHS recordings back then. If a Jurassic Park video game had adapted that concept as if the protagonist had survived the events of JP and recorded some footage, that would just be top notch! Either way, awesome video and AMAZING skills of yours. Thank you! 🦖🔥

[@biancosignorelli4929]

I entered to this video in automatic play. I didn’t see the title. In the first place, I was like: Oh, ok, the T-Rex scene from Jurassic Park. Then, when I saw you recreating it in Dreams, I couldn’t believe it. Definitely this is a way more better compared with all (yes, all) the things that Universal have done with the franchise. Stunning job. Universal, you must finance this!

[@PBHorrorGaming]

That was awesome dude, superb work!

[@saratavington5435]

First, I want to say, YOUR work on this scene recreation was stunning. No questions about that. Most people when recreating this scene don't quite get the head motion right, but you nailed it spot on. But can we also talk about how far CG work has come in the past 30 years? When Jurassic Park was being produced, this exact scene took a TEAM of animators 6 months to complete on top of the line computers DESIGNED for that kind of work, and that was their entire job, spending 8, 10, even 12 hours every day to get it to work. Now it's possible for ONE person, albeit a talented person who clearly has some education in the subject, to do the exact same scene in a matter of days, while also having a day job/other obligations, on a freaking game console. I am not detracting from Kenautican's talent or expertise when it comes to animation, because clearly they are superb... but it's amazing that 30 years ago, no one was sure if animating the T. Rex breakout was going to work because it had never been done before. And now, it's being recreated as a hobby in a PS game. Amazing!

[@lifeasneil]

Absolutely would enjoy more videos of this nature man. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing your process. Not dissimilar to my own but definitely more refined with applied patience and skill, well done! Have been eagerly hanging out for JPO in VR, any news is like feeding a starved man at this point lol

[@MichaelHasAWebshow]

This is absolutely amazing. Well done!!!

[@x2leon263]

This looks unbelievable considering it was made by just you. I would love to play this, can't wait till it comes out, wow. I was struck with heart dropping fear when I notice the T-Rex in the dark. I would probably freeze playing that for the first time because of how scary it looks. To think something soo large could sneak up on you with barley any time to react is a terrifying thought. Its also a nice bit of attention to detail when the character talking says anyway and carries on with his voice line after you bump him. Makes the character feel more life like and helps with immersion. And its annoying when you don't get the dialog in games due to an interruption, glad that's not the case here. Sometimes the small details matter as much as the big ones and that is an example.
