Game Journalism Play 2

1. What specifically did you do today?

  my goal for today was make as much progress as possible specifically in being able to explore other rafts and islands. i built a sail to traverse faster, and my plan was to crash into another raft, and it push mine so they would stay together, DON'T DO THIS. My boat ended up glitching out and was pushed very far away, and i died with all my things on me because once you loot the other rafts, they sink

2. What did you learn about how to play the game?
  -Don't crash into other raft's
  -Use an ANCHOR unlike me to stop your boat in place, i theorize if you get in-front of a raft and stop via the anchor, it will stop both yours and the other raft, of course if its against the current
  -If your dying and are in a safe area that you can get back to, drop your items, so when you re-spawn, you will still have them

3. What strategies are you going to try to focus on tomorrow?

I will learn how to build more, as i've just experimented with vertical building. i will also try to find a better way to stop and loot islands and rafts. 



4. Add a picture of your raft. (include a caption) Explain what you have done to your raft and WHY.

I added the top floor for the sail, and a research table

Game Journalism Day 1 - Basics

Raft is a survival game based on a floating raft. the goal is to collect resource and build things such as cooking stations, tools, and pieces for your raft.you will be stranded in the ocean and see floating debris, islands, and other floating rafts.the three main components that you will find early on are wood, plastic, and palm leaves, although they're are many more to be found and crafted.

They're are two ways to collect debris:

Using your hook, aim for items and hook on to them, the reel it in and 

get your reward

Or wait for items to float to you and press E to pick it up, this is smart because your hook

has a durability to it and will break

My raft ended up with a decent amount of progress done to it:

You can see a ladder for building upwards, a wall, a fire for cooking food, a water purifier behind it, and a dirt bed for growing plants ( i chose potatoes to grow ) 

They're are a variety of debris to collect Debris, the things you will find in the ocean are varying pieces of plastic like water jugs, and plastic containers, which both provide one plastic each. There is wooden planks, and although i personally haven't gone on an island, you can make an axe, so you could most likely cut trees down for wood. and palm leaves come in either one leaf or a bundle of three

Shark attacks are really common, a shark is following you basically 24/7, and will begin to bite your raft until the one platform is destroyed
