                      Water Tank - made at the beginning to fill my canteen before every town.

                                    Knife - used to help kill the seeker, but that didn't work.

                                           Seeker Head - obtained by killing a seeker.

Totem Carving - found in a hut by a dead forest.

Wobbleheads - found in towns all across the map.

What did you learn?

• Are you advancing?
• I am advancing by always getting new materials to build my airship and finding metals to use for weaponry.
• what new TIPS & TRICKS can you share? ..with IMAGES

Always crouching when entering a town will make you harder to hear for the Seeker.

Fill your canteen with wells, and fill your water tank with buckets of water from the well whenever you can.

I met an old man and fulfilled quests for him.

Desert Skies #1

What TYPE of game is this?

Desert Skies is a survival adventure type game based on upgrading your base and trying not to die. The game involves strategies to keep you alive, many different materials used to craft resources, and a tough health / hunger / thirst bar to keep you searching for medicine, food, and water.
What did you do yesterday to win the game?

I tried to gather as many resources as quickly as I can, as the Seeker can hear your  movement, and the longer you stay in one place, the easier you are to find. My strategies to face the Seeker involved getting to high ground, distracting it with far away noises, and most importantly moving.
Explain what you see and how to play the game.

When you first load the game, you see a deserted area with loot around and a wood platform with a hot air balloon. You power the balloon by gathering fuel by cutting trees, or mining coal. The goal in the game is to ultimately defeat the Seeker, but it's not an easy task. Using your balloon to advance to different locations for better loot, and gathering rare materials to build weapons.SIX- screenshots

What is your plan?

My plan is to gather the best resources to create a revolver and take down the seeker for good, and finish my research while upgrading my aircraft.
