Don't starve

Has anyone picked up this up on steam?

Been playing it non stop the last few nights and its so addictive and way deeper than I thought.

I originally downloaded it illegally but picked it up tonight and steam cause I thought it was definitely worth the money.

Played an hour or two of it and really enjoying it.

Gonna put some more time into it this weekend and see what the other characters bring to the game

Played it last night after paying into the beta. Wonderful game, but can be quite unforgiving. Thankfully any research you unlock carries over to a new game so still get the satisfaction of progressing.

I paid $11, so it's roughly €8. It'll go up 20% at launch.

Not The Real Scarecrow

Think its around 11 euro on steam at the moment but you get 2 copies of it for that.If I haven't spent everything by friday might pick it up.

I've got a copy if anyone wants it for a fiver or trade for something else on steam.

After 30 minutes of playing it this evening I just know that if I don't uninstall it now I'll be divorced by the end of the week

Excellent game. I got killed on Day 7 by some weird dog-like creatures. Next time I'll have a sword ready for them.

Here's a good into video for those who are interested.

I have no idea what that means but what's different to this than Minecraft is that I don't want to spoil anything by reading wikis and watching the Lets Play videos on Youtube.

Anyone want to trade their extra copy for something worth around €6 on steam?

Nollog

My world's on day 113 I think now.

protip:
buy from their own website and you get 2 steam keys and 2 chrome store keys for $12 which is about 2 euro less than the steam price.

Graphically it's completely different.
It's not about "Building structures and fancy things for the laugh" - it's about making things to survive.
You could watch a simple WTF is , he doesn't give too much away - just watch the first 5 minutes.

You sure? You bought it on steam?

I gave my copy away to a friend!

I haven't played in about a week I must check if they updated it again. My only gripe is it wont have an sort of multiplayer co-op.

Just got the free copy when I logged in. Must've been a delay

BizzyC

I'm intrigued by this game now....

To buy or not to buy.
My limited schedule is already full with recent purchases of Tropico 4, I am Alive and Deus Ex...

Let me know if you want to swap it for something on steam!!

This is addictive though part of me wants to figure out how to get past barely being able to womp spiders another part wants to discover for myself. To google or not to google...

I've decided to use the wiki when I come across something that I really can't figure out (like the amulet I found).
