Game Journalism Play 2

1. What specifically did you do today?

   Today I found an island and got some food. With the food I got from the island I made a small farm. I also added some walls to my raft and expanded it. I also added a medium crop lot  and a scarecrow to keep the birds away. I also made an anchor and a paddle. 

2. What did you learn about how to play the game (TIPS&TRICKS)?

   Today I learned that I can switch my building hammer to build walls and not just floors. To do this you just need to right click on your mouse while holding the build hammer. Also I learned that to kill the shark you need a weapon like the spear to kill it.

3. What strategies are you going to try to focus on tomorrow?

   I am going to focus on planting more foods and killing the shark as well as expanding my raft and maybe adding a second story.

4. The Raft 

My raft is like this because I believe it is the most efficient way to keep my stuff away from the shark with the limited amount of resources I have. I decided to put everything in the middle so if the shark does bite my raft he will only bite the edges and my items will be safe.

What the game is about

The game is about surviving and expanding your raft to get lots of supplies and making it a raft that cannot be destroyed. There are lots of obstacles such as the shark biting the raft. Also hunger and thirst.

What I see

I see no islands right now just and open ocean

How to collect debris

One way is to use the plastic hook. You throw the hook and reel it in.

The other way is to let the item come close to you and then press "e"

   This is my raft. I have a sail, a grill, a water purifier and a research table.

 This is a barrel. You get multiple items from this.

                                          This is a leaf

 This is a gallon which gives you plastic






This gallon also gives you plastic

 This item also gives plastic

This tube also gives plastic

This is the a plank. It gives you wood

This is a shark attacking my raft. But since I have the build hammer I can replace it easily.

Why I died

I died because I was going into the water thinking the shark would not see me but he saw me and bit me. Something I can do to stop this is not go into the water. I also died from starvation because I did not have enough food. I can stop this by going on the islands and possibly finding some food.

1. What specifically did you do?

    

     First off I died from the shark a twice. But once I made a new world I gathered materials and extended my raft. I also added a research table.

2. What did you learn about how to play the game?

 I learned that the shark can't be killed without a weapon. Also I learned how to make a building hammer and a research table. I also learned how to expand my raft using the building hammer.

3. What strategies are you going to try to focus on tomorrow?

 I am going to focus on staying alive and keeping track of my raft being eaten so I can rebuild it. Also keeping track of my health and food.
