Dont Starve Thread

I came across a video on IGN going over this strange game and initially I was attracted to the strange Tim Burton like art style.

Yogscast seem to have covered it as well in quite a lot of detail:

The aim of the game is to survive in the wilderness using only the items spread around....while making sure you never die of starvation or get caught out in the dark or killed by any of the strange monsters dotted about and survive for as many days as you can.

Its only in Beta, but can be played now if you get it on Steam in the sale (you actually get 2 copies).

I started playing it yesterday and couldnt get off it....very addictive and well worth a look.

Great little game though once you unlock all the tools and have killed everything it kinda looses it's appeal. Finding myself looking forward to the next updates (which I guess is a good thing heh)

Yeah...I've just been reading the roadmap and they are bringing in a Sanity Meter....so you cant just rely on a single system to stay alive as you will go mad (which actually will open up a new dangerous world), Winter so that you have to survive the cold with less animals/trees/plants etc and longer nights and also a story mode to eventually figure out why your there in the first place.
