<br>The nominations are in and the finalists have been officially selected for the 2013 Canadian Videogame Awards. This year, the fifth for the relatively young award ceremony, is quite a bit different. Reboot Communications and EP Media are moving the show this year from Vancouver FanExpo, where it's traditionally been held, to Toronto but recently delayed the production to the fall where the 2013 awards will be announced alongside (but separately from) the 2014 awards as w<br><br> <br>The 2014 show will include 2013 and 2014 made games to be awarded separately, based on the nomination year, in one ceremony. Information on 2014 nominations will be released in June while the votes for the 2013 winners must be submitted by April 21st. The award ceremony takes place November 21, 2014 at the Carlu in the heart of downtown Toro<br><br> <br>This mod is a truly creative addition to the world - outside of DTS, fish armor would just be the same as wearing spoiled food. Gross and not very logical. However, this mod guarantees "Armor made of fish. _ 750 durability and absorbs 60% of physical damage. With 50% chance gives absolute protection - fish is slippery and character dodges a blow. ≈80% _ _Small protection from rain and overheating. Will be spoiled after 40 days, but can be stored in a fridge to keep it from spoilin g." _ It’s like a temporary raincoat that keeps you safe! Also, how long is too long to wear spoiled clothes? Asking for a fri<br><br>After a few games and a few deaths, however, the pace of play picks up because experience is at work teaching you what to do. Gather resources like flowers, grass, twigs, rocks, berries, and carrots as quick as possible. Craft flint and twigs into an axe and harvest trees. Plant the pine cones to replenish the tree supply and combine the wood and some rocks into a fire pit, which will eventually be the centerpiece of home base. Spend every second of the first few days putting that base together and then start budgeting time between resource gathering and exploring the wide-open world. While that sounds a lot like work it's actually a rewarding kind of fun, once you get the taste for it.<br><br> <br>The first piece of advice I can give is to find the town that the expansion is named after. You don't spawn in the Hamlet , and sometimes, it's quite the walk to get there. I've sunk quite a few hours into Hamlet over multiple saves, and in my experience, the town was typically about half an in-game days walk from where I spaw<br><br> <br>The 2013 finalists for the Canadian Videogame Awards span seventeen categories and include 29 games, narrowed down from 75 nominated titles. 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. Last year's show saw Far Cry 3 take him the most awards , including Game of The Y<br><br>It's a lovely day to go for a walk through the forest. The dark night has given way to a clear morning and I've been toiling over the fire to cook up food and spending a little time with the alchemy engine to get a shopping list of parts, because keeping busy is a good way to preserve sanity while waiting for the dawn to come. Charcoal for a boomerang, spider web for a bug net, spider organs and ash for healing salve, and general scavenging to keep food supplies from draining too low will fill up the new day nicely.<br><br>And then you get cocky and decide to attack the wrong monster. Or an unexpected swarm of bats invades the camp, or a surprise tentacle in the swamp, or maybe you weren't quite so prepared for winter as you thought you were. Death isn't truly inevitable, but it's going to take a whole lot of dying to learn how not to do it any more. Then it's time to choose who you want to play as this time, roll up a new world, and start all over again with, hopefully, a better plan.<br><br> <br>So it only makes sense that plenty of enterprising players have gone above and beyond their busy schedule of surviving and not starving to gift the world with mods. The best mods don’t necessarily make gameplay any easier, they just make the world less seemingly random and more balanced. These ones are definitely worth try<br><br> <br>Downloading this mod greatly increases the chance that your trees will grow to prehistoric proportions. Instead of a brontosaurus reaching their long neck to the tippy top to munch leaves, your character will have access to way more timber. The mod’s creator clarifies; " _DO NOT enable this mod BEFORE you generate a new world, do so after. This modifies the growth cycle of the Trees to randomly grow bigger. When chopped down at max growth they produce more loot. Note: If a Treeguard spawns from one these trees a true GIANT is born !" _ Well, [https://Switchworlds.com/ please click the following page] Redwood forest might have gotten the way it is now without a mod… but we don’t have to wait that l<br><br>Don't Starve originally came out on PC and created a solid fan-base for itself by being a really fun survival/crafting game with a humorous gothic-lite style. It kept interest up by being constantly updated with new features and plenty of secrets, growing from its initial impressive size to a huge epic of carving out a life in a hostile land, if only you can manage to avoid the many endless ways death can cut the adventure short. There's lands to explore, a giant network of caves underground, monsters of all shapes and sizes, tons of resources if only you can figure out how to both collect use them best, and, if you can find it, an Adventure mode to provide a bit of plot to counterbalance the free-form Survival mode. Don't Starve is loaded with content, but it requires a motivated player to get to it.<br>
<br>Every character in the Don't Starve franchise has some unique quirks. Wormwood loves to plant things and can plant without a farm, Wendy has her twin sister's ghost follow her everywhere, and Maxwell is able to manage his sanity quite eas<br>And then you get cocky and decide to attack the wrong monster.

Then it's time to choose who you want to play as this time, roll up a new world, and start all over again with, hopefully, a better plan.<br><br> <br>Wendy is haunted by her dead twin sister, Abigail. Obsessed with her to the point of talking to her frequently, Wendy can summon Abigail’s ghost to fight alongside her in combat. This is helpful in beating mobs of monsters and keeping Wendy safe. But why is Wendy so obsessed with her late sister and unable to move on? The text from the loading screen involving Wendy states that she "clings fiercely to the grief over her sister’s death" because she’s afraid that moving on would make her forget Abigail. That makes her depressing character seem less weird, but certainly sad<br><br> <br>Based on his quotes when he examines items, gets hurt, and attacks monsters, it's safe to assume that Warly was once a chef living in France. Some of Warly's quotes are French words and when he kills a spider, he says that he hopes it doesn't start to rain after he kills them, something that is a reference to an old superstition that killing a spider in your home will cause rain to c<br><br> <br>Fresh Fruit Crepes restore 60 health, 150 hunger and 15 sanity points. This means it absolutely blows most other recipes right out of the water. Even the amazing meaty stew only shares the hunger restoration. You can also freely use durian to reach the desired fruit value. The main disadvantage, of course, is that you must play as Wa<br> <br>Red Barrel games hold the torch for the horror genre and have shown that truly wonderful and remarkably well-produced experiences that focus on dis-empowering rather than empowering players can be profitable and popular.

These animated shorts are a good way of seeing what the character's life was like before they found themselves in The Constant and show off their personality and gameplay st<br><br>The main issue many might have with Don't Starve it that you need to make your own goals. There's no "go here do this" to the game, nothing pointing you in the right direction. You get resources by harvesting them from the world, craft them into items, use them to harvest more resources that then get turned into new items to help you live longer. You need to keep on top of health, hunger, and sanity, and there's no instructions on how to do this outside of the obvious "eat food" and "don't get hit". Everything else is trial and error or a quick trip to an FAQ.<br><br> <br>Permadeath gaming has seen a huge resurgence over recent years. Giving players a single life or character with which to complete the game, games with permanent death as a mechanic are notoriously difficult, tasking players with keeping upmost concentration throughout their playthrough. More often than not, attempts may end in tears – but that won’t stop players from trying their hand once m<br><br> <br>You play as an astronaut stranded on the space station Theseus, a research facility studying a group of rocks that may or may not offer intelligent life called 'The Watchers'. To navigate the space station, players must solve puzzles using the Swapper, a device that can replicate a person several times. It works in a similar fashion to Portal , but instead of creating portals, you are making clones that all move at exactly the same t<br><br> <br>The game isn't for every gamer, but if you are looking to escape reality and visit a pixelated haven, it is hard to look further than Proteus . As you explore, you will find a progression that you may find touching and profound in its simplicity, but really that is just an added bonus for getting to spend time in a digital E<br><br> <br>When you do make this delectable treat you'll be restored 60 points of health, 37.5 hunger and 5 sanity. This differentiates this treat from many other food items because of how good it is at restoring your health. The main downside to this recipe is that the drop rate for butter is a pathetic 2% per butter<br><br> <br>It's a good thing that Warly loves to cook because he gets hungry faster than other characters in the game. That means that if you're heading out any distance from your camp, you should consider taking your portable crockpot with you in order to cook something up on the<br><br> <br>Woodie is one of two characters that can change their form; if he chops down too many trees too quickly, or if the moon is full, he will become a "Werebeaver." But this form is more useful than you might think. The sanity, health, and hunger meters disappear when Woodie is in his Werebeaver form, meaning that effectively if he were to stay in that form, he could survive indefinitely. He wouldn’t even need food or items to help heal him — he could simply live forever. But beware, the "naughtiness" score still applies and Krampus can still come after<br>
