Food / water degradation

[Chunk Dunkirk]

Is the developer serious about the "food/water" survival aspect? I understand that this game has literally zero content, and nothing to do but collect trash to expand but, for real, I need to spend most my time collecting water and food? I'm not concerned about the lack of content, the broken "food/water" aspect completely destroys the game. I shouldn't need myself or one of my friends to constantly collect and refine food and water. Absolutely game breaking.

its a survival game what do you expect?

lower the difficulty

play on creative mode

unlock advanced food/water production tech to basically trivialize it to where you never have to worry about food/water ever

also you are wrong about zero content raft has PLENTY of content and even a story to it

This game has a lot of content if you actually play it through the story. We aint even to Balboa island yet and its awesome. The cruise ship was actually a nice creepy site

Beside very early game, if you bother making a wide net setup (barely need 10 island worth of iron ore to protect it from any shark btw, if you want to have a raft shark proof) it will provide you with free small amount of food.
Add the fruit on the island you visit, the shark you might want to kill every island for a more easy ressource harvest near the raft, and you won't even need to fish or farm to sustain yourself.

grill are quite cheap, so it's easy to line up a few of them and just cook whatever you loot, not wasting time on storage and managing raw food.
water is extremely easy to manage as soon as you get the solar purifer, since it's quick and net you 5 cup worth of water before half your water bar deplete. Make two of them if you want to water some plant.

after 3-4hours of playing food and water will be basically 1-2min IRL used to refill 100% every 30min. That's extremely low tbh.
If you play with friend you will need to get some fish now and then or line up some planter, but if you go for the later, make sure to plant everything at the same time to avoid the need to check your plant often. If you go the fish route, grab 3-4 fishing rod, sit for 10min and you are good to go for a very long time.

"game has literally zero content"

obvious troll is obvious. Nothing to see here

You gotta put different number codes into the radio station that you build, it opens up more content- your notes should be usefull for finding out what codes to put in
