Hey, survivors! 👋
In this devlog, we want to dive a little bit deeper into two of them, and share some more details, so you can get a better understading of what you might expect. Without further ado, let's get the party started 🔥
Woodcutter’s hut 🪓
The first shelter that you’ll discover at the very beginning of the game is Woodcutter’s Hut. It might not be the coziest place that you’ve ever visited, but it’ll get the job done, at least for a while. But first things first. As you can see in the screenshot above, there are some holes within the shelter, so to further increase the protection it can give, you’ll have to repair the damages ⚒️
However, that doesn’t solve your problems for a lifetime, because the shelter can suffer from the terrible weather conditions (such as blizzards ❄️) or wild animal attacks (wolves 🐺 or a bear 🐻). Please keep in mind that it's still work-in-progress, so some things that you see here, might change when the game or the prologue will be available.
Apart from the protection thing, the shelter is also a place where you can gather all your resources and craft some more complex items on the workbench. However, we’ll dive into more details regarding crafting in the future devlogs, so stay tuned for that.
Hunting Hut 🏹
The next shelter that you’ll discover along your journey back home will be a Hunting Hut. Here, as the name suggests, you’ll learn a couple of different things regarding food 🍖, such as basic food preservation, how to skin animals so you can use their skin to upgrade your gear, or you’ll learn how to prepare an ointment, so you can ease your pain a little bit.
Stay up-to-date
And that’s it for today, survivors! ❄️ We hope that you’ve enjoyed our little shelters showcase. There’ll be more updates along our journey to the Early Access release, so stay tuned for more. Last but not least, don’t forget to follow us on social media, and if you haven’t done it yet, consider adding Winter Survival to your wishlist 🙇
