Version 1.2.0 (17 December 2014)

December 17 - Jefek


New big update available now!

The first big thing is a brand new shelter!
From now on, each time you begin your story, you'll have a chance to start in the new building.

The second new feature is the choice of the starting group of characters.
You will have bigger influence on shaping your story of civilians in war, making it more challenging or even giving it a totally new perspective. Please keep in mind that you have to play at least once to unlock this option.

no save game?

was doing great, had a animal trap, water collector and a decent stock of food plus upgraded workbench, then i get caught while looting, run and get shot - dead, 1 bullet.

no way to reload a save, obviously. because roguelike is so f* cool these days.

no way i'm putting time in a game that all the sudden decides "whopps, i'm killing your main character, see? war is sooo awful".
it doesn't make for fun play. even FTL is more balanced than this (at least on easy difficulty, lol)

Oh

That is the exact reason I didn't like Dont' Starve. I thought it was an interesting game utterly ruined by the complete lack of saves, so I never gave it more than a few hours. I'm okay being punished when I die and put back significantly, but starting again you just go through all the same motions. This sounds similarly punishing, in which case I will have to pass on it as well.

I see it's $17 right now on Steam and it does look like a cool game.

bleh.....give us unlimited saves or give us nothing!

FTL format was terrible.

I ended up buying this game, after even completely forgetting I was aware of its existence and commented on it

Yes, the no saves is pretty fucking awful, but the game is fairly forgiving so far. It's very much more Don't Starve then FTL.
