#THE FLAME IN THE FLOOD FULL#

If you've been looting every location to the best of your ability, you shouldn't have any problems living off of the meat you've accumulated from wolf, rabbit, and boar kills. I've seen plenty of salt's come out of those from my personal experience.

Occasionally light blue illuminated islands will show up while rafting and you can press A on them to be granted with a random piece of loot. Salt can be found randomly in different locations (I have better luck in shop areas), and also on the river while rafting. Jerky never spoils, and you're going to need plenty of salt. A jerky stockpile is absolutely vital for miles 100-200.

Once your raft is fully upgraded you'll have an insanely easy time for the remainder of the first 100 miles. I cannot stress enough on the fact to loot EVERYWHERE. You never want to get in the stupid situation of figuring out what item is most important to not leave behind. That's usually the first thing i'll try to do when I start any playthrough.

You'll want to eventually craft a full set of bear hide gear, a fully upgraded raft, all 4 tools, and a stockpile of max stacked materials in your inventory and raft inventory.Ĭreate 4 pouches to expand Scout's inventory to the max as soon as you can. It's all about preparation for the first 100 miles. the difference after the 100 mile mark is completely different than the first 100 miles of endless mode. I'm not going to bother making a guide for the 100 mile achievement because that one pales in comparison to this one. It has definitely earned my contribution.To obtain this achievement you'll need to survive 200 miles in the one playthrough of endless mode. For a few more days, the game is still in the fundraising phases, so if it seems intriguing, go on over and contribute if you want. Overall, The Flame in the Flood seems to be a fantastic game with equally fantastic soundtrack. You may listen for yourself on The Flame in the Flood’s Kickstarter website. Ragan has even written an original song for the game, as well as the game’s initial gameplay trailer. For those who are interested, the game features music from The Fearless Kin and Chuck Ragan, lead vocalist and guitarist from Hot Water Music, who is a particular favorite of mine. Given the game’s location, most of the music is from the alt-country genre, which adds a great layer of mood. The music, though, is the most fascinating and exciting aspect of the game. Before you die, you may leave all of your belongings to Aesop and re-start your journey down the river with the same gear. Thankfully, you’ll have Aesop, a loyal dog friend who will carry all of your belongings. Expect to die a lot in this game, since it has many rogue-lite aspects. Even if you don’t think you’ll make it, making tools and obtaining food are vital for your survival. On your improvised raft, you’ll have to survive the river and the wilderness. The game is set in a post-social backwaters of America.

The Flame in the Flood is a survival game set on a river that is created at random. This one has the support of a number of former Irrational Games workers that worked on the Bioshock games. There are a number of independent games coming out this year, but one in particular has piqued my interest.
