You'll see a tiny part of the wold displayed on screen and the rest will be dark until your Blockhead has explored it. In the center of the known area is a blue [[portal]]. | |||

Your Blockhead will appear and more of the immediate surroundings will be revealed. | |||
Now that you've got a world and a blockhead to live in it, you'll need to take care of your Blockhead's basic needs. | |||
== Basic Needs == | |||
Like you, your Blockhead has a fundamental need for warmth, shelter, and food. Satisfying those needs before nightfall is a good way to start. This is especially true if your Blockhead begins in a cold climate. | |||
=== Warmth === | |||
=== Shelter === | |||
Later in the game your shelter can be as elaborate as you want. For now you'll want to direct your Blockhead to gather the necessary [[:Category:Resource|resources]] with which to build a shelter. | |||
The easiest way to start is to dig out a cave. There is a [[spade]] among your Blockhead's [[Starting Equipment|starting equipment]] so digging a small shelter into a [[dirt]] hillside or just a hole down into the ground is quickly and easily accomplished. Just select the spade and then tap on the dirt blocks you wish to remove. | |||
=== Food === | |||
Eating food fills up your [[Blockhead|Blockhead's]] [[Hunger Bar|hunger]] bar. If used when the hunger bar is full it will fill the [[energy]] bar instead. Remember, food is fuel and medicine. | |||
Your Blockhead will begin the game with a small supply of [[:Category:Food|food]]. Your options for adding to your food supply depend on the available [[:Category:Creature|creatures]], [[:Category:Plant|plants]], [[Seasons|season]], and [[Veganism|dietary limitations]] of your Blockhead. Your Blockhead can kill creatures and or collect the fruits of trees and bushes when they are in season. | |||
