Game Journalism Day 1 - Basics



 This game is about collecting waste/materials in the ocean and using them to survive on a raft that's in the ocean. I have to try to survive while constantly getting thirsty, hungry, and from shark attacks that are gnawing away at the raft. In this game, there are also islands or places you can go onto.


How do you collect debris?

- You can collect it in two ways..

1. Using a plastic hook to 'reel' in items


2. Getting close to it and using 'E' to collect it by hand


1. My raft


2. Each type of debris (and what it's good for)


- Palm leaves are used to craft a lot of things as it can also craft ropes, and ropes are included in a lot
of the recipes.


- Plastic can be used to make things such as an empty cup to drink water. (It also can come in different forms as you can see in the picture above)



- Wood or planks is very important. It can be used to build essential items and are also used as fuel.




- Barrels can contain many items at once, such as food like potatoes and beets, planks, palm leaves, and even scrapes.



3. A shark eating my raft




So far, I died because of either my thirst or hunger. (And the one time when I fell off my raft and the shark killed me) When my thirst of hunger is low, my health bar slowly starts going down so I don't die instantly and have time to react. To satisfy my hunger and thirst, I made a grill to cook fish and beets, and to grow beets I made a small crop farm. For thirst, I made an empty cup and purifier to purify the saltwater.
