Absolutely loved hosting my first stream on the channel! I thoroughly enjoyed playing the game - it's fascinating how I managed to survive the entire session, nearly two hours, without a single defeat. The combat system is particularly intriguing.

  • Built my first base ✅

  • Survived without dying ✅

  • Crafted all core tools✅

  • Claimed a tree✅

  • Found screws and stone✅

did you started from scrach?

Sturmer's avatar

Yea, bought a new copy of the game so later we could play together with kids

Fras_Shoyo's avatar

that's my vtuber friend, because this survival game is a bit lonely if you play it alone, what else will we fight the boss and it will be difficult if you do it alone, so I suggest this bounty

Dave's avatar

Yeah I just figured that out after posting. Sounds like you had fun!

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Okay so I streamed it for an hour, and it's very late so iv'e come off, I just setup my encampment and will work on that more tomorrow.

Review: First time playing it.

It's very confusing, there are not enough tips and direction to really know what you can do, I've also just setup my bed, workplace and firepit and went to build around it and it's telling me I can't so I will need to look that up.

It's a very pretty game, the movement is good, but, having to equip the hammer to build something is a tad annoying. The combat is pretty straightforward, it's a lot to learn but I like the game.

Hopefully, the link to the VOD works :)

Dave's avatar

Ok here goes. Starting in a few minutes! Feel free to pop in and say hi.

Here also is a highlights video cut down to 20 minutes over on Youtube.

Dave's avatar

Well that was fun! My first ever stream and my first ever own voice voiceover on a video! As someone who doesn't often play crafting games I got VERY confused and only really started to figure things out a bit more towards the end. I think I must have missed a few really important key gameplay/control concepts at the start.

Thanks FrostySomething for joining for most of the stream. He tells me some of the things I was confused about is how it just works in most crafting games, so i get the feeling if you often play the genre it would just be obvious and natural to do what took me an hour to figure out!

Could benefit from a hand holding tutorial I think but on the plus side it provided some entertainment with how confused I got and the misundertandings!

FrostySomething's avatar

you’re a natural Dave! Thought you really good 👍 well done 👏

Horror and Cats's avatar

Hey! I was watching on my phone and couldn’t chat, but I thought you did a good job!

Dave's avatar

Awesome, thanks! I tried not to look if anyone was still watching. I'm just really pleased I had the confidence to do it! Had a nightmare with the game but the stream went well

Konquest's avatar

That was a really awesome first try. Really great effort! Sorry I couldn’t make it, I fell asleep 😛 but I caught the VOD. Looks like I won’t be participating in this bounty, I just saw your other post and realized it myself that 50 subs are required, Silly me. I don’t feel like going on twitch at the moment but I’m almost able to stream on YT just a little more.

Dave's avatar

Thanks so much! I actually really enjoyed doing it as well in the end. Will probably do more or the same as a vid on YouTube. I need to go read up on the game some more and watch some new player guide videos, before having another go.

Regarding 50 subs, it looks like this is a mobile requirement only and from a desktop there is no minimum requirement. What confused me is that you have to apply for access to stream and there is a 24 hour activation countdown for some reason. I checked in on where I was with the countdown on my mobile and there was no countdown but instead said I needed 50 subs. But it seems this is a mobile only requirement so you should be good to go if you manage to find the time to do it at short notice.

Konquest's avatar

Oh good to know, I thought it’s the same on desktop, then I will give it a try if I can get it done on time. Been preoccupied the last few days, need to catch up 😄 but just keep at making content. You are growing alright. I feel it for myself as well. From the first to current video, nothing major but there is a difference over time.

MadamClutter's avatar

Ok! I bought the game and I LOVE it so far! It's adorable and you can definitely get lost in this world for hours and hours! Check out my Twitch Stream for my initial game play, and watch out for those Carpenter Ants! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2135787847

Horror and Cats's avatar

Just wanted to say your title game is on point. “Honey, I Shrunk the Streamer”

MadamClutter's avatar

Thanks! lol I couldn't help but think about the movie!

Dave's avatar

Nice stream. Watched most of it on vod after playing through myself to see how others did.

MadamClutter's avatar

Thanks! I struggled, but I do with every game lol

Wadd Enderas's avatar

Oh boy, I don't think I have enough time to get set up with streaming, but what a great bounty!

Lanah Tyra's avatar

I wish I was a full-time creator.... you guys coming up with all these great bounties and I'm trying to find time to play this many games.... haven't even finished FF7Rebirth yet 😭

Dave's avatar

I'm tempted to do this and do a live, voiced lets play for the first time ever. I have the game and I think I have some time to myself for a couple of hours on Friday.

Konquest's avatar

go for it mate. You got this!

MadamClutter's avatar

ok FINE, I'll buy it, don't twist MY ARM! lol This looks like a lot of fun to play!

Dave's avatar

Oh my is that a near 8 hour stream?!

Dave's avatar

This stream is 1 year old. I think technically the bounty doesn't say it has to be new/recent though.

Boomer's avatar

Hi TheCounters03, thanks for giving us a chance to see what Smalland was like in early access! 😊 For this bounty the stream does need to have been recorded after our bounty was shared, and you can see the date in the top right side of the bounty post.

Unfortunately that means we aren't able to count this submission, but there is still plenty of time to resubmit if you are interested!

Feel free to tag me ( Boomer) if you have any questions 🙂

Boomer's avatar

Hi patwick, thanks for sharing! How are you enjoying Smalland? I noticed your stream was recorded last month, however we're looking for streams that were hosted after this bounty went live.

Unfortunately that means we're not able to count this submission, but this bounty is open for another three days if you wanted to submit a new stream?

Feel free to tag me ( Boomer) if you have any questions 🙂

P

hey hello, yes I love this game. ok no problem anyway I planned to continue my adventure. Is it valid for a current adventure or should I start a new one?

Rich's avatar

Fine to continue your current one in a new stream 😊

F

Love this game and have already streamed it in the past with friends. Sadly found this post with only 3 hours left on the bounty so I can't join. Smalllands was the first open-world crafter I loved and really enjoyed playing with friends!

Nicole's avatar

Hey Fumei there's actually 3 days left so hopefully you still have a chance over the weekend!

We also have some other Smallands bounties to get involved in over here: https://justabout.com/video-games/35285/here-are-all-of-our-smalland-survive-the-wilds-bounties

F

Ah, i miss read the 3 as hours not days LMAO. thank you for clearing that up!

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Iv'e brought the game today, will be doing my stream tnite :)

This game has over taken my love for grounded I don’t even play grounded anymore 😂😂😂

Trizrizzle's avatar

Had an absolute blast playing Smalland on stream last night! We tamed geckos for the very first time and it totally changed the game for us. Meaning we didn't die as much lol

Hey Glen, many thanks for this! You've made a normal reply to the thread, however - if you'd like to submit this for the bounty and possible $50 reward we need you to use the 'submit to this bounty' button. Copy/pasting what you've got here would be fine!

G

Well thats rude, you dont have clear instructions Maybe you should have had clearer instructions. Maybe you could have contacted me to let me know. So now my entry is not counted because your instructions were not clear ?How do we submit bounty’s - No instructions that I could see.

And now that I have come on to see what the results were its too late.

Disappointed.

G

Very simply: stream Smalland for at least an hour, on Twitch, YouTube, or wherever you prefer, and post the link to your stream as your bounty submission below. Up to 10 streamers will get $50 apiece!

No instructions on how to submit a bounty - you give the impressions it just a matter of replying.

PS - your log in system keeps giving a failing to log in.

First stream ever! Hope I don't mess it up :P

Edit: I did indeed mess up 1st time i stupidly left the stream on standby for 30 mins while going on. 2nd time 1 Hour 40 Mins after I ended I realised my mic wasn't set up properly and didn't have audio. I'm going for the 3rd time :D Third time is the charm!

Update: I finally completed the stream this time successfully :P technically i streamed a total of 3 1/2 hours due to stupid mistakes. Important lesson learnt.

also its not coming up as original i don't know why that is Boomer

Dave's avatar

I will be asleep but will watch the vod. Good luck and hope it goes well!

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Aye same, I'm fingers crossed because I brought the game specifically for this bounty ahah xD But I do like it :P This site is going to kill me game wise I think :P

Dave's avatar

Yeah it's going to be luck of the draw/judges opinion but I'm really pleased to see so many fans of the game arrive here, presumably from the games discord.

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

They have had a lot of feedback from new players to the game so let's hope they take it onboard

Konquest's avatar

Thanks! I actually just bought this game a few mins ago for this specific reason and the other bounties. but even if i don't win. Hey it's still a win for me as JA is pushing me beyond what I would do on my own :D so as a content creator its good for my progress. also the money I got from previous bounties covers it so I get to rack up steam points also :D

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

yeh I agree and it’s why I love it here, apart from DayZ this is not a game I would normally play but I enjoyed it. For me I need to get out of the mindset to only play games I am going to make content on

Konquest's avatar

Being on here has opened me a bit up to games and to be more outspoken as a person as well. Before I would never play games like these as well :D but loving it so far. Never played DayZ always wanted to try it but at this point i think I will be killed by the experienced players just like if you joined Rust as a newbie today hahaha

Konquest's avatar

No worries mate. Thanks for the wishes! I was testing on OBS and fidling with the settings. because i use it to record as well audio on separate tracks so it took me a good 15 mins to get the mic going during the stream luckily i had a test run which i set to private so its only me :D everything is all sorted out now. I do want to try to stream at different times of the day because i want the english speaking markets e.g US and UK but US is a tad easier for me as its generally 12 hours difference. so 8-9 am is 8-9 pm and vice versa. for the UK its generally 6 hours behind so can be a bit tricky with my local sleeping time :D I'm lucky my work is flexible-ish. Until I become a full time content creator, then I will have 100% flexibility.. Muahahahahah!

Konquest's avatar

also I have a big phobia of snakes so when I saw the trailer i know there in there. lol. so i was thinking really hard if I wanted to do this. but oh well, as I remembered reading in a post by JA user Kings Court "The things we do for content" :D

Kings Court's avatar

hahahah So I pushed you to play the game thru my own painful experiences ?? HAHAHA nice !

Konquest's avatar

It was one of the pushing points :D seeing everyone no matter the category. Doing what they do & love, even doing what they don't want to do HAHAHA. To indeed be better!

H

HEllo In this video i tried to compare whats new and whats missing in the game still thats needs to be added , what changed from beta to 1.0 Small base wit bed continue laters tyv

Hey everyone

Pardon the delay in awards here, but because we got more entries than we expected and because this is a special, first-ever streaming bounty, we're making a one-time exception and awarding all legitimate submissions.

That means all new streams of Smalland that were carried out since the bounty went live. If your submission meets these criteria you'll either be awarded on this bounty (in chronological order) or you'll get a direct payment of the bounty prize amount ($50) into your platform wallet.

Thanks and congrats to all our winners!

Dave's avatar

Very generous thanks.

TheGreatestBanana12's avatar

Hi I was wondering have you given out all of the awards?

okayameji's avatar

sans bro, we are create content just for fun. Don't worry about it, and also the event you created means a lot to us too🤗

Fras_Shoyo's avatar

don't worry about it too much and thanks for the bounty. <3

Konquest's avatar

I'm just glad for the opportunity and the encouragement JA has pushed me to grow, without you guys I would never have started anything.

okayameji's avatar

If you feel bad, maybe you can make another event, maybe like Valheim, because the fanbase there is also increasing

TheGreatestBanana12's avatar

Rich Should I have received a reward?

Rich's avatar

TheGreatestBanana12 Apologies, this nudge got buried in my notifications! Yes, you should've, as should Konquest, BlinkBlinkGames, and Spektreplays. Very sorry about the oversight; should be with you now 🙂

Konquest's avatar

No worries at all Rich I'm just thankful for how JA has pushed me forwards :D
