Featuring a mixture of real-time strategy, city-building, resource gathering and… medieval dinosaurs. Well then, that's definitely a unique mixture and Dinolords went right into my wishlist. Coming from developer Northplay and Ghost Ship Publishing it ticks a lot of the right weird boxes for me.

More about it:
As you take command, you'll gather resources, hunt and tame the land. You'll use your resources to build a thriving settlement, attracting villagers and automating resource gathering and production. You'll construct and upgrade specialist buildings that'll keep your growing population happy and ready to be trained and enlisted in your army.
Man the rampartsConstruct fortifications and man the ramparts as the enemy attacks with an arsenal of fierce dinosaurs. A shocking new age in medieval warfare. Participate in these battles with strategic commands to your troops and keep your own sword and bow ready. Dinolords merges the strategy of RTS with the immersion of an Action RPG in a brew that's both nostalgic and entirely new.
Game Features:
- A modern genre hybrid with a player controlled protagonist in a realtime strategy setting

Doesn't look like it will support Linux directly, but no doubt it will work with Proton so I'll be happily taking a look when it enters Early Access at some point. It looks too ridiculous to ignore! Can't wait to see some armored-up dinos smashing through my walls — hilarious.
Follow it on Steam.
I guess that's the difference.
Quoting: PhiladelphusAlright, props to whoever made that trailer, that sudden tone shift as the dinosaur appeared was pretty funny.Yeah, they deserve a raise because it sold me on it.
Yesterday was Leif Erikson Day too.
QuoteApproximately how long will this game be in Early Access?The game makers have no release date goals. That is way too early for me to jump on board. I'll wait until their vision is completed.
“We'll keep developing this game as long as the community is interested in supporting us, until we're all happy with the quality and amount of content in the game. The Early Access period might last a year or more.”
