As I sit here, not having written anything for this blog in almost a month, I feel like I’m not even the one who’s responsible. I’ve WANTED to write about things. I even have some super kick-ass ideas in the queue, and they’re going to be super kick-ass.
Anyway, that stuff will be here in the coming days. Let me bring you up to speed with Don’t Starve.
I’ve been playing this game almost non-stop (not quite as non-stop as my wife, but that’s a different post) because it’s really fun to play. Or maybe not fun? More like, addictive? Yeah, I’m going to go with addictive.
Don’t Starve really has scarcity down to a science. You always have to be working toward the next thing, because if you misallocate your time… BOOM you’re dead. Trust me, I know.
So anyway, I might venture into a thorough “thinking out loud” about this game in an upcoming post, but the reality is that I just died in a game the other day where I was 58 days in… I’m still heartbroken…
forsoothed, you filthy animals 
The game wants you to think it was your fault. Much like Candy Crush, I think Don’t Starve is using some very tricky AI to detect just when to fuck you. Likewise though, when you get fucked, the next world is kind.
I haven’t felt like the game has done any tricky AI to me yet, I think it’s been pretty fair given the types of the world. Has it boned you good?
