New Biome Food

I think villages rely on the same food. Berries for children, Stew and Pie for Adults. They are rather easy to make ,so it makes sense.

But I think the Tundra Biome really didn't get much love. So I drawn a few ideas for food that could be found in the Tundra Biome.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

1. Penguin Egg

My first guess were penguin eggs,but I wasn't sure if they were edible. Apperently they are- and they look rather odd.

Penguin males wander around with their partners egg inbetween their legs - so I figured you won't just see them laying around.

I'm not sure if you need to kill a penguin to steal its egg. I mean .. It's a penguin. Perhaps just click on it and yeet it.

To make the huge egg edible you need to boil it. So we need A Bowl of Salt water and get it to simmer.

Dump the boiled egg onto a plate and it will just auto-peel itself.

Unlike the geese eggs we eat, Penguin eggs white remains semi-translucent when boiled. ( http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff-nation/ass … -sensation )

2. Fishing

I think a few have already thought about this. Making a fishing rod out of a Long straight shaft , some Thread and a flint . You would need to attach bait to your now makeshift rod - which could be worms.

Shadows in Ice hole indicate that fish can be fished in here. Perhaps they get depleted once 5 fish have been caught. Some time has to pass before fish will respawn.

You can now attach your newly made fishing rod to the Icehole and wait. Just alike a snare and hares.

Keep your eyes on the rod. Eventually something gets caught. Interacting with the rod gives you salmon. If you leave the rod unattented for too long, it snaps. Making it unuseable - or perhaps just repairable.

Like mentioned above, it will take time for fish to respawn after depleting the source.

Put the Salmon onto a plate and cut it with a flint to receive Cut Salmon. Which can be baked on a hot adobe oven. or perhaps cooked in water ?

fishsoup.png
Maybe the salmon can be used in Creamy smoked salmon soup by adding ( cut ) potatoes and fish.

Perhaps you have anything else new to add. I would love to know !

Re: New Biome Food

i think seals and fish are great, maybe penguins but they'd have to drop the eggs somehow, or have a cooldown, otherwise we could just get tons of eggs from one. it just does not make much sense yet to settle on cold biomes, even with food. maybe if more valuable resources get added there.

Re: New Biome Food

I suggest that the indicator for a caught fish should be that the fishing pole should have a sharp bend to it, like it's flexing to keep the fish attached, instead of just a fish next to the ice hole.

Re: New Biome Food

Penguin eggs are a weird idea, considering how protective penguins are of their eggs.  But the fact that we see individual penguins is, in and of itself, super weird.  Penguins are not solitary animals. 

I'm all for new food sources, but say no to penguin. Giant yes to ice fishing.


Yum. Yum. Yum. Meh.

By offering more varienty, perhaps people won't see themselves forced in the same job every life or maybe it will give them more room as where to settle down.
Yeah, the penguin eggs need to be kinda limitated. I think a cooldown seems really fitting

I tried to animate this idea of yours big_smile Perhaps if you leave the rod unattented for too long ,it snaps and makes it unuseable - or repairable.

Yeah, penguins seem a bit odd in game :b I don't think they have any purpose right now ?
