"I definitely punted that island." Animal Crossing Becca has ARRIVED in the Dinkaverse.
What can I say? It’s my brand 😂
Its definitely not what I expected. for months now I saw this game on steam in my recommended games, and kept passing over it paying it little attention. Turns out, it is everything and more I could ever ask for in a chill, casual game. Its about as addicting as Stardew for me.
I completely agree! Im so glad you decided to give it a try 😊
I didnt discover a few things until my 2nd and 3rd playthrough. 1. There are coconuts on far north isles. Grow them. They are worth it. 2nd. If you place a planter or pot ontop of the bones and skulls you see around the dog places you get a brand new flower and its the only way to get it to use to decorate your place.
Those are amazing tips!! I’ve been wondering where to get coconuts!
I accidentally built camp right next to a Tasmanian Devil den and they would terrorize my camp every single night. After roughly 15 hours in I was this close 🤏🏼 to punting my island then i found out you can move buildings for 25k dinks and i just went that route and am now at a waaaay better location. Love this game so much
Oof I’m glad you were able to move! I’ve also heard if you kill the bush devils and break up the bones & rocks of their den then they stop respawning but I haven’t tried that yet!
Hi. Australian here. The big birds that are attacking you are Cassowary. They are like Emu on roids. Closest thing we have in real life to an actual dinosaur.
Thank you so much! Are they just as mean in real life? 😂
@@BeccawithaBook They are one of the most deadly animals we have. People mess with snakes, people mess with spider, people mess with crocs... No one messes with a cassowary.
@@highflyingguy i mean when a jurassic reject runs full force to swipe your head of your shoulders with a kick you know that thing is an absolute unit and a menace... also its terrifying to look at a damaged shield from one of those feathery tanks... they can leave scratches in balistic shields
@@highflyingguy that is horrific 😨
The CHAOS of Blaine and Pat 🤣 Great video, Becca!!
This is so helpful. Thank you Becca!
you can left click on any icon on your map to make it highlight like your house did at the start ^^
You can also get more sleeping bags from the pile in the corner of the base tent. Also the timer does not start until you place both the base tent and your tent. So you can explore the whole map, select a good site and collect heaps of foragable items to give you a head start on your progress and your dinks.
Oh my gosh that is a really good tip! I didn’t even notice the time didn’t start until then. You could grind for ages and set yourself up nice from the get go! Thanks for letting me know that!
@@BeccawithaBook another time trick is to do your value-adding at night. You can grind and saw and cook and craft and smelt with very little expenditure of energy. Therefore you can do them for as long as you like at night. When it gets “late” ie 12, your energy bar drastically shrinks, but time stops. So you can work away at processing all your items and get ready for selling them at a premium the next day.
That’s a great tip! I’m awful at time management irl and it’s been a struggle getting into the swing of a time management game again after not playing Stardew valley for a hot minute.
Thanks, really helpful to a new player!🥰
Can’t wait to get my hands on this game! Great info! ❤️
I can’t wait for you to get it! 😊
About the sleeping bag, you can actually play a day for unlimited time. After you hit Midnight the game displays "late" and after that the day just never ends. Your Stamina does take a serious hit, so you can't really work anymore, but if you stay away from Cassowaries and Bushdevils AND don't try to swim through broad rivers you can make it back home quite comfortable. ;P
Yep! It is nice that you can kind of keep going. You could spend all day doing whatever you need to do and when it gets late do little stuff like cooking and material prep
The games got me hook line and dinkum too!! Good video ❤️
Hook, line, and Dinkum 😂😂 I was not expecting to immediately not be able to put it down.
Cassowary is the big bird. They are frightening, look them up, and enjoy the nightmares.
Not enjoy the nightmares 😂😂
keeping this in mind for when i do get the game 😀
Yea, this game has certainly pulled me in. I can't wait to see what comes as the development progresses.
If you don't want to deal with aggressive animals at all, I would recommend the Peaceful Miner mod over on Nexus (I use it to pacify the bats in the mines). You can set overland and deep mine monsters to passive. Can also turn off their spawns, but I would advise against that since you might actually need the meat they drop.
you’re in your element with multiple save files! i found out about clicking on the map to track your house last night and it also changed my life 😂
Multiple save files make my indecisive heart so happy haha. The ability to star my house has really helped a ton. I’m horrific with directions and I was seriously worried I’d never see my base camp again haha
Something also to note about base location is to be somewhat near a telephone pole. Eventually you can repair and use them to teleport to different sides if the island. Its nice to be able to have quick access :)
I wish I had thought of that a little more when choosing my location! I haven’t fixed a single one yet
you can build your own later on so it doesn't matter that much(a platform thingy for teleporting)
Remember this one tip: power up your computer before playing, it will save you many a headache
Great vid. Luv seeing the stream footage of Pat and Blaine on your island. Very funny and chaotic as always. 😹I'd really like to try this game. Hoping it comes to switch. I don't think my laptop could run it. Also, how similar is this game to Stardew? I wanna play it, but it always seems very intimidating. Dinkum doesn't feel that way. Thanks. Always luv your streams. 😸🌸
I would say Dinkum is a good way to dip your toes into Stardew. If you enjoy the way Dinkum works, you’ll most likely enjoy Stardew. It’s just on a bigger scale, there’s romance options, more to do, etc. The mechanics are very similar in terms of the time management aspect. Just a different story with different tasks!
u can prob play this game on a toaster, no textures, its all colors, prob there is textures, bit very low lv ones
is there any benefits on sleeping outside when you're very far away from home?
12midnight becomes LATE and I never had any instances where I drop on the floor
only thing that will limit this graveyard shift is your limited stamina bar
the only thing which would force you to do sleeping bag is when:
1. you've run out of foods, and no forage-able are found on your island and the island next to it (probably a river)
2. you're located very far from mainland, with swimming would deplete your stamina first before reaching the mainland.
a good tip: you can actually cook, craft and process things during the LATE and no stamina would be used. it's best to cook at LATE if you're cooking, making cements, ingots, planks, crafting by batch. it's not the stamina that's wasted but the amount of time you wasted in the morning while doing a batch craft.
The only real benefit I can think of are the ones you listed, like if you're far away. For instance, my camp is in the south but currently I'm farming fish & insects from the tropics so sometimes I'll head up there and spend a couple of day moseying around before heading back. The cooking/crafting tip is great and really helpful for time management as well!
got the game yesterday such a blast
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Definitely an underrated game
Hi Becca I love you video I have a question does having different saved files mean you can have more than one Island at the time?
Yep! That’s exactly what it means! A definite pro for me 😊 I’m not sure how many you can have though. I currently have 2 😅
@@BeccawithaBook Thank you so much 😊
Thank you sooo much! These tips have been really helpful for me too since I get lost most of the time and get attacked by those emus.. How do u star ur home in the map?
I'm so glad you find them helpful! If you open up your map then hover over your house (or any other building/vehicle) you can left click to highlight it as a beacon.
@@BeccawithaBook thank you soo much once again Becca!
I only ever want to fight mobs on my terms.
So, I carry fences with me when I go trapping. And then when I see something I want to catch, I place them all down in bunches grouped together to make an impromptu platform that I can safely stand on and jab at them from ...until they're weak enough to trap! If they're weak enough they won't resist the cage or try to break free. But if they're not sufficiently weakened they will break free and return to full health. I make about 80K/ per night just trapping! Porcupines are so easy this way but the fire-breathing devil dogs can sometimes burn me a little... And I haven't tried it down in the Deep Mines yet but it would make for a very convenient pop-up killing floor that would put you on the Bat's eye level so you wouldn't need to jump anymore to hit them. Fences FTW :) Just clean up what you wanna keep!
That is a pro strat! I’ve been just waiting for the animals to fight each other and then steal the meat 😂
@@BeccawithaBook Lol that's a great way to get meat especially when you are just starting and have no weapons. You must spec into hunting to get the spear blueprint and the other tools just won't cut it. Even the hammer and club can't be had until you get the hunting license. But following the dingos will always get you fed. And Meat is essential to hp regen. I'm glad the dev made it that way so that even a non-violent person such as yourself can play the game on your own terms.
Great tip about starring your house on the map. I've lost so much time getting lost lol. But you didn't actually tell us where is the best place to camp in your opinion.
It’s so hard to say a best place. Realistically it would be near the center for easy access to all biomes but every map is different so it’s hard to say. I’ll probably end up moving whole base eventually because I don’t love where I located it. It’s nice being near water but I don’t like having the ocean as a backdrop.
My mother inlaw came to my island and she couldn't open up the chest that you pick up in the deep mines, so maybe if you open your world, have your items in them chest, this way people can not steal from you. Wonder if someone steals or ruins something, if host just logs off without sleeping, everything will go back to normal....
Yeah we think if you close out without sleeping then maybe it will be ok? I was given a candle hat on someone’s island though and was able to go back to my own island without saving and keep the hat so who knows. I’ll have to play around with it a little more. That’s interesting about the chests though. I haven’t found any of those yet because I don’t do much mining haha
The big black bird is a "Cassowary", and yes in real life they are quite dangerous.
They are terrifying!.
Those birds are cassowaries
I got this game late last night and I only had time to install it and not play it. I haven't slept yet. I feel like a kid on Christmas again. Im 29 years old 😂
Haha! I hope you love it!
@@BeccawithaBook as do I :p nah I will
If you are new I suggest opening your world to everyone if you get robbed do not save the day, if people help you and give you a tree farm or other helpful things save the game.
It's good to know that you can close out without saving if people want to be rude!
cassawory and tasmanian devil
You can't really get lost since you can just highlight your tent/house from the minimap and it will always show a marker pointing at it, seems kind of a weird thing not to mention in this video.
I actually do mention that at about 3:30 😊 it has been an absolute lifesaver for me once I figured it out!
While I see the influence of Minecraft and Stardew- this game is really Animal Crossing redone. (and maybe better)
I think there’s definitely inspiration from all of those games!
I think the big birds are Cassowaries, they're huuuge and terrifying IRL too!
Loved the video, Dinkum is almost tempting me into PC gaming...
The cassowaries freak me out 😂 PC gaming isn’t too bad! I’d say if you have a computer or laptop that can run the game, give it a try! 😊
Wish there was Code: to rename our player
I've just started this week and I have not committed to any island yet.....
Holy… 😧 honestly…I love that for you. No settling here.
@@BeccawithaBook 😂honestly tho there's so many tricks to do in the beginning that I've been missing.
Just make sure to put your base camp close to a teleporter. Then buy the metal detector and farm items. You will find 4 teleporters on the island. One in the west, east, north and south. If you restore all of them and have base close to them you will be good 👌🏻 So to anyone that have a base at the beginninh area, dont worry, just restore the teleporters and youll be good ☺️
After you restore the teleport towers you unlock a telepad from Franklyn that can be placed anywhere so your base can truly be anywhere on your map and with the telepad a you can even spread out across your map more easily 😉
@@BeccawithaBook thats true ☺️ I just see a lot of YT videos stressing location of the base, when reality is that poorly placed bases can be mediated with teleporters/pad ☺️👌🏻
Lmfao! If jellyfish is your favorite animal how could you not known they can hurt you? If a game had friendly jellyfish I'd be annoyed because that unrealistic lol
Jellyfish can be beautiful but just like the girls at the Go-Go club by my house it's 'look but don't touch'..
Even SpongeBob knows this 😂
Not the Go go club 🙃😂😂 listen…
@@BeccawithaBook 😇
I'm so jealous of everyone playing. I was able to get the game, but it looks like my graphics card might be dying as the game makes my PC crash.
Oh no!! I’m so sorry to hear that Jennifer that sucks! I thought I saw you hop on! Hopefully you’ll be able to figure it out or try returning the game!
It actually with high graphics run even in low end pc.... Which has 4gb ram, ssd, basic intel hd 620 graphics.....
pc crash a lot of time it needs updates
5:24 Tasmanian Devil?
Yeah I’m pretty sure that’s the “real world equivalent” but in game they are the bush devils! …I still like calling them hellhounds 😂
5:05 looks like a Cassowary.
Definitely a cassowary!
cassowaries
Always the cassowaries 😂
Hunt or be hunted gotta get that heathy meat
I would not survive 😅
