Resource Ideas!

Help
1

So I can’t work on thantaphobia because of the Character Device Bug[1]. So I started a new project, Trial by Fury… yay! It’s a cooperative crafting game where you must survive until you are rescued! I’m using pseudo items so I am not limited by the items in GKC. I have a ton of ideas already but I would like so more! Please (a) read through the items below so there isn’t a repeat idea (b) make sure to follow the format listed at the bottom. Thanks!

IF NATURAL RESOURCE:
      Put where you harvest it from and if you need any specific tools
ELSE
     Put where it needs to be crafting (smelted, fire, crafting table) and what items you need

Any questions just ask!

Ok, thanks for clearing it out.
Maybe make a abandoned city or village (like you would see in fallout or minecraft’s abandoned villages)
Using the car props and the new wasteland terrain (i can’t show a picture because i don’t have season ticket)
(this might not be what you asked)

You don’t eat bleach? It’s tasty on penguins :penguin:

Nice except where would they get the leather? It’s very apocalyptic here.

13

Are penguins gonna be a eatable item?
If not, than you just ruined my sanity cause i haven’t eaten in days

If yes, where would you find them?

14

fair point :sob:
hm, I have an idea on where they would get the leather. I didn’t realize it wasnt there.

Name: Leather

don’t mind the fact that leather cant be made from trees, lets just pretend they are special trees that drop leather for some reason.

Maybe I’ll change it to fiber, which can be harvested from plants.
