So I died finally. I got cocky and ran out of my hole a little too early and there were two spiders and a spider jockey. Anyway... So new day.

I get some wood and stone and kill a few sheep. I notice it's getting dark and I start digging a hole. I get in the hole and then I see gloom. Crap. New moon on my first night... I was afraid this might happen so I craft a campfire and a fire plough. By then pitch black. So I go through the entire fire plough but no dice, gradually the dark kills me. Then I get to start still at night half health, half food. Really nothing to do as it's pitch black and I end up dying a few more times. Now half health and famished and night is still only half over. Not really sure what I as a player am expected to do...

To quote myself in our conversation in the release thread:
FlowerChild wrote: With a couple of exceptions (primarily related to the death and night-time experiences, both of which I plan to address) I think it's right about where I want it now.

Ah ok. Clearly I didn't understand that comment before. Now I do.
