Should I Make A Guide?

[Adam Galahad]

Would you all like a guide based on what I know from playing the game for a while? I can talk about some things that aren't obviously apparent; the basic lore, items, and tips and strategies? I know the game isn't much yet, and my pictures are gonna have bad graphics, but is it worth it?

[CarsonTheOneAndOnly]

sure, that would probably be valuable to the devs having an outside perception of how the game in interpreted as well.

[HannahCitto]

Yea cause i think the game could be good but the gameplay wasn't efficient..

[Adam Galahad]

It seems I can't make a guide, since the creator hasn't allowed access to do so. Sorry, all.

Guides are always useful and appreciated.

You could try to make a text one and post it in this forum or alternatively at GameFaqs:

the guide button is available and i would personally really appreciate one. I currently have a lot of questions... and i would rather read a guide than ask all of them independently when im sure they could be answered by a simple walkthrough

you spawn in with a fractured leg, light shines through a hole in the cave onto the torch, two sticks with rock, and the legs of the body with the pistol to "its" right (your left), bullets to its left, the cloth will be on the darkened rock shelf area right next to the empty can
1. Torch is on the ground, you dont need to make it. "L" to take it out light source, "R" to light or turn on flashlight. you will need matches in inventory for the torch
2. making a splint: 2 sticks and a cloth, tab open inventory, Crafting Tab, its in one of the three crafting categories,click craft at the bottom, attached to the crafting side there is a +"health" tab, click on the Fracture image to apply splint. same goes for any other condition you get in the game as long as you have the required fix in inventory too. they should have an option to drag the fix/splint to the condition, to keep things consistent with how you interact with menus.
3. to load the gun: pick it up, bullets will be by the same body pick them up, Tab to open your inventory, take the magazine out of the gun, drag the bullets to the magazine, put the magazine back into gun. number "3" is the hot-key to take out or holster the gun.
4. after leaving the cave, the camp will have more sticks and stones for one tool, now you know how to craft I recommend a pick, a pick can be used to bash bushes too to get sticks, its easier to find bushes than the haul able stones (too big for inventory but can be dragged) the axe can break rocks this size rock into smaller rocks, where as the pick cant bash bigger wood than the bush for resources (obviously the pick can hit all stone like deposits, and the axe can hit all wood like deposits). once you learn what what looks like, you will not have problems (bushes dont have a tree trunk). if things are too big, you can always bash them smaller
5. before you go gathering or building, after you have a tool, go back in the cave and bash the suit cases, these will have cloths and sometimes more med kits, all (top, pants, med-kit) can carry items, think a "Herodric cube", a backpack in a backpack, a bag of holding in a bag of holding that does not blow up. this might get patched, its easy enough to make a wood storage box. for the tutorial, its more fun to explore, because building is very slow
6. now you can leave the cave again, grab the glass bottles or alcohol, when empty you can fill them in water sources, find water, use the scroll wheel to select fill instead of drink
7. make a base if you want, or a camp fire to boil the water. you dont need to do this or the previous step, you might find enough water while exploring. just saying this is the final step if you wanted to survive. I made a high tower to shoot zombies from above.
8. when working you will get dirty, jump in the water source to clean up, this way things will not track you down
also, the crafting tabs have scroll bars, knives are farther down the weapon/tool tab below the "?" marks indicating unknown recipes, there you will find the hidden knifes among other things
there is a bug I fall victim recently a few times, that was not a problem in the past, it involves certain animations being unable to work because of held items in hands, for example in the past if you had a tool in your right hand and the torch in the left, then try to unload your gun, the character would be forced to put the tool away and pull the gun out to unload the gun, where as now it just closes the inventory UI and you cant open it ever again. i have not found any solutions, but im just a player

But how do you get a backpack or pencil? Been browsing these forums and others for hours trying to find out.

[EyesBlack84]

Pencil you craft with charcoal, charcoal is found after burning wood at a campfire.
Make a campfire and search it after its burnt out completely to find charcoal.

You can make a backpack out of cloth but it may require you to study cloth prob to unlock it to craft.

Is there going to be NSFW content or?
