Releasing in April 2013, Don't Starve 's awesome art style and unforgiving mechanics made it an unforgettable entry into a genre that's littered with unremarkable carbon copies and games that simply never, ever get finish<br><br> <br>Anybody who's made it past the first couple days of Don't Starve knows to grab flint , and a lot of it. But in Hamlet, flint doesn't seem to be as readily available. Don't worry, it's not rare, just hidden.

To qualify titles, at least in part, must be developed in Canada. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag leads the pack this year with an impressive 12 nominations.

I've never gotten to use a boomerang before, though, so the first thing to do is find something to chuck it at. Tossing it at a crow nets a black feather, useful in a crafting recipe for... something. I'll look it up when I get back to camp. Unfortunately it also comes back and smacks me in the face, knocking my health down to just above nothing. That didn't go well but practice makes perfect, and it seems like a nicely powerful weapon so obviously the smart thing to do is use it again as quickly as possible. Turns out practice makes dead, and I'm all out of sacrificial altars for revival. The unforgiving lands of Don't Starve have killed me again, but next time will go better.

Information on 2014 nominations will be released in June while the votes for the 2013 winners must be submitted by April 21st.

Today I have food but want to build something, so it's off to harvest logs and craft them into boards. Trees are cheap, plentiful, and easily renewable, but tomorrow I want gold and finding veined rocks isn't so simple. Loading up on roasted carrots and berries and taking the trusty pickaxe out for a stroll into the stony wastes solves this problem, but there's frequently other things to find there as well, such as a jagged pile of rocks that signifies a cave entrance. That's an adventure for another day, though, because the gold I'm bringing home will make an alchemy engine, which in turn allows the creation of much better gear that increases the odds of crawling out of the cave alive. The cycle of work/reward turns at a pleasant pace, making the results of all that effort feel like something earned.<br><br> <br>The Thermal Stone is a survival item that can be put by the fire and will heat up. When it's in your character's inventory, it'll keep you warm for a period of time and you'll be safe to head out to collect resources or go hunting. Don't toss it out after winter ends!
