Survival Shore by radgegames
Survival Shore is a simple game where you just have to craft a raft to survive the island you have been washed up on.
TO COMPLETE THE GAME Unfortunately I didn't have time for tutorials :( but the concept is simple
-Make a knife with a stick and a rock, this will help you gather all other elements -Add two grasses together to craft cloth -add cloth and grass to craft rope -Add Iron and Iron for the raft frame (don't question me, I'm running on little sleep and so are you so...) -Add the frame and the rope to make a boat and beat the game
!Controls!
I - inventory
Click on stuff you picked up to add it to the craft thingy ma jig(that's the official name, which is copyrighted. since you read that you owe me 5 cents)
Esc or P - pause
Left Click - stab at mine-y thing like a boss :sunglasses:

How you could improve:
Try downloading a program called BFXR. It's a free sound generator that a lot of people use.
To avoid that annoying bounce when the player walks into colliders, check if there's a collider next to the player. You could do this in many ways. One thought that springs to mind is: when the player collides with another, check the relative position and then disallow that motion of movement, so for example, if the collider is above the player, allow movement in all directions other that up. I don't do this style of games so that might not work but it's a thought.
Good work though!
@s-yanik yeah, ran out of time for designing a way to prevent the player from advancing in an "artistically friendly" way like I originally planned, so I just spread sh*t out so it was still simple but not like you just walk off the island in three seconds. Did you get the end screen?
@n0ught234 thank you for your honest feedback, it's really appreciated! Had no idea about BFXR, and yeah the collider thing is annoying. Did you try crafting the knife before mining items? you need that first, then the player should be able to mine trees and iron and grass. There is an oncolliderstay event so you could just stand at a tree, but mining is faster
Had a wander anyway. Basic graphics, nice chill music track while you wipe out trees with your knife. :y
The 2nd iron disappeared from my inventory ._.
You did great job overall, you can be proud :)
Since it's in Unity I highly suggest you make an HTML5 version and throw it up somewhere. You will get a lot more plays if you do.
Good work.
