Name is inaccurate, there is no threat to your survival unless you go afk in a field.

We experienced 2 raids in ~8 hours of playtime, and one spawned on a bedroll on our starter island and was completely ignored. Once we had 5 monkeys each, PVE was irrelevant, even on my own, just with my 5 monkeys with wooden clubs, all dungeons I could access were completed before I could finish sorting the loot drops.

Regarding progression, All crafting blueprints were discovered within an hour, and most of our playtime was just building a cool looking ocean side housing community, although once we had a bedroom each and a furnace/storage room, there was no need to create any more structures.

Very dissappointing for a 1.0 full release, especially considering modding tools are NOT currently planned, I'm sure some people could forge their own fun by exploring and continuing to build, but to most players, I would assume 8 hours of content (at most) is piss poor and not worth $36aud.

Hey there,

Sorry you found the game too easy. We are listening to player feedback and a patch is going live very-very soon to live and is playable in our experimental branch right now.

Whilst there are lots of changes in there, we have nerfed the monkeys in combat, buffed enemies, made enemies more numerous and made food slightly harder to craft to enhance the survival side of the game.

You can access the experimental branch here if you want to try changes early - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/games/897450/announcements/detail/4691021366605126614

We hope you'll give the game another shot.
