About the game:
ICARUS is a survival game where you and up to seven of your friends get to play a high-stakes game of "Don't Get Eaten by the Wilderness." After a terraforming disaster, you’ll explore a world that really hates you. Whether you're braving the open world, racing against the clock on missions, or just trying to build a cozy little outpost, it's all about exploring, building, crafting, and hunting. And remember, you're not just surviving-you're prospecting for exotic matter and a fortune! Think of it as extreme camping with a side of chaos.

Hi,
1.) Do carry some floors and ramps always. Helps you to get things high up or get out of some sticky situations.
2.) Animals need Food Trough, Water Trough and Bed while taming. Also get a Moa since they are really fast. Buffalos can carry more.
3.) Since you are now Level 16, get Masonry Bench and Woodworking(Carpentry) bench. Unlock Stone Buildables so that you can upgrade to Stone Structure as they are stronger and take less damage from Thunder Storms. Also you are protected from fire.
4.) Get Flint Arrows, they are very economical as well as better damage than bone arrows. Also get Steel tools and weapons as soon as possible. With Steel Pickaxe you will be able to mine higher tier ores like Aluminium, Platinum and Titanium.
5.) You can consider Leather armor for now. Ultimately you can get the Composite Armor in Tier 4.

You are doing really well on your new journey congrats. Suggestion for your caving adventures to collect resources, make 3 or 4 wood ramps and use them in the caves to reach high up nodes, makes things far easier on you. Make a bed for your animal as soon as you can he tames faster and dont for get the make sure he has food and water (troughs)

Hey @arthurcarkeek258, nice to see you back! 👋 Thanks for your advice! Those are always just priceless! I thought to use ladders instead of ramps, but now I going to try both! Thank you and see you next episode! 🎉
