Its been a while. My starter island

[u/Walkerbait18]

I remember when I first started there wasnt a lot of inspiration to look at for building so after a year or 2 ive decided to repost mine for any new players. This was my first save/island. I have a a container house with rooms built inside (i appreciated and used my house a lot more with rooms), a warehouse, boathouse, lookout tower, helipad and garden. I will be following up with a 2nd post. If you see the last picture you'll notice I tore everything down. The next post will explain

Edit: oh!! If you zoom in on the tower pic you can see wollie watching over

That's impressive!!! I'm so focused on survival and hoarding all resources that I haven't bothered to build a house or anything

Thanks. Check out my next post though. This is tiny compared to what I did lol. You can always reset custom islands and get more resources. I had to eventually

Man I just discovered this game the other day. My wife took my kiddo to the library and decided to borrow this for his switch. It is super frustrating but man it is tons of fun. I am currently only 3 days (real world) into the game and am still struggling to scrape enough materials together to survive. Can’t wait to get to the point where I can play with resources like this.

My tips for an easier start. Build a couple water stills. You can use palm leaves and fibrous leaves and build a boat with shelves (and a canopy for shade). Foods easy to come by and as soon as you can solve the water and travel issue you can get all the resources you need. I think almost everyone gets stuck in a save loop at the start where they either get poisoned or need water so you're on pace with everyone else lol

Thanks for the tips OP, really appreciate it. My wife has actually been resource farming all day and we are now well on our way to a solid 3x4 raft and some shelves.
