Critter Cove is pretty great tbqh. It's def jank due to early access but it's very... chill. like what if animal crossing but you don't gotta be a boring ass human at the start (i'm bein a bnnuy ) and you get to sail around to different islands and swim in the sea to collect salvage. it's pretty nice.
oh also you gotta help rebuild an island community apparently. some fucker named renard scammed you into being his contractor but there are nice people on the island so it's cool. plus it's a cool little island.
...why the fuck is sand so difficult to find. there are beaches everywhere, WHY CAN'T I JUST DIG THAT UP FOR MAKING GLASS WTF
