A quote from the author.. "Xenotopia is game idea I had many months ago. I wont bore you with the details but basically I want to create a 3D environment that would eventually become populated by alien creatures that the player had raised from eggs. These creatures (or xenomorphs as I dubbed them) would grow, eat, reproduce and eventually die as real animals would. I also want to give them the capacity to learn from experience and interact with the player and each other. You may be thinking 'Creatures', and that's not far off - but think less Disney and more Discovery Channel."
