because with the wooden spear you need about 5 hits with it so the shark goes away but with the metal spear the shark will go away in two hits.

It wasn't really worth the materials, sure it goes faster but you can spend the materials on anything else and it would be better.

 What is the best feature on your raft? 

The sail is the best feature on the raft because it allows me to nudge my raft to an area that I point it at.

Game Journalism Play 3

1. What NEW things did you build today? 

I built an anchor

and a new water purifier

2. How will these NEW things help you play the game (TIPS&TRICKS)?

     I wouldn't need to waste supplies to make a one time use anchor instead I             have an anchor that can be used as much times as I need it to.

     The glass purifier can hold up to 5 cups of water and doesn't take any                   resources to use.

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

     I will try to focus on upgrading most of the items on the raft life a grill.

Game Journalism Play 2

1. What specifically did you do today?

I expanded my raft even further and even made nets to catch materials so I don't need to.

2. What did you learn about how to play the game (TIPS&TRICKS)?

The shark only attacks the edges of your raft so if you build around your important items the shark won't be able to attack it.

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

hopefully i can kill the shark and go under the water to get some sand and clay.

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

Game Journalism Play 1
