I may be a bear of very little brain but I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be a Tim Burton film.

 

Oh I've always loved Tim Burton gilms. It's that little unexpected twist that makes them fantastic... I mean gantastic.

 

Been paying this on and off loads, am on over 120 days survived, it's hard but enjoyable adjusting to the new features on new beta's. Took a good few goes to get into best survival tactics.

Great game, you can waste 10mins playing or lose a whole evening

 

And you can play a demo in Chrome. Fab.

 

that made me laugh out loud... I mean... wait there's already a G in laugh. Dammit.


Anyways seems like a nice time killing game, seems very original.

 

Woohoo been waiting for a modern day Robinsons Requiem

 

Been playing the beta to this and think it might be a solid contender to be the most boring game that I have ever played. I really wanted to like it, because for me the first part of a game of Minecraft, the part where you are trying to survive, that's my favourite bit. That's the part I really wanted expanded into something new and brilliant. But this isn't it. Playing Don't Starve is as close to being bored to death as I ever want to get.

 

Update: Well I played the demo and hated it. They give you a 15 time limit which isn't enough time to work out how to do things seeing as they very helpfully say "build a fire" but don't tell you how. Sounds like an interesting game but a bit too slow to start and the demo arrangement didn't work for the game.
