Today was the first day that we had all of the moving parts in order to see how winter works. In sandbox, if you prepare carefully, it is survivable. In adventure mode, it was a bloodbath. In one of the later levels you actually start out in winter with a very limited inventory. You have to run from tree to tree, lighting things on fire to gain enough warm to stay alive. It's a mad dash to collect all of the teleportato pieces and get the heck out of there, all while being stalked by MacTusk and wee laddie MacTusk, or even the Deerclops. I think we may have found the upper ceiling for difficulty. It's a good thing we have about 6 weeks left to tune it :)

Yesssssssss. And it's separate from sandbox so it (hopefully) won't get nerfed to the gound.

Cannot wait.

I need to know.... you guys keep saying MacTusk hunts you, is the bush hat a viable means of escaping him (them)?

Followed the link to RiptidePow's place and watched part of the last recorded stream.I have this to say:- I can see he likes the game and is happy to be the one testing it so is gonna be good.- I can connect via Facebook so is gonna be easy to join and no names taken, but I will have to add my Nick to my Facebook.- He lights the fire as soon as dusk starts and loads it with wood right away. You noob D<
