About the Game

After a shipwreck, you are one of the survivors.

You make it to land, but soon discover that you are not welcome.

To survive, you will have to build a base for your own protection.

The ship got stuck in the water and many boxes with things inside were floating in the sea.

The tides will start to go down, and new little islands will pop up with stuff to gather.

To avoid the dangers of the sea, such as sharks, you will have to build a raft to be able to explore the islands that will appear when the tide goes down.

Important Disclaimer:.

I am a solo developer working hard to get the game out, but it's important to mention that many features aren't there yet.
I want to develop the game further based on Early adopters feedback and implement your ideas to the game
