Don't Starve Beta (April 20, 2013) - The End of the Beginning

Adventure Mode is done!
Can you escape through a long, arduous journey of 5 randomly generated worlds, and learn Maxwell’s secret?

We’ve put a lot of effort into creating randomization between and within each level, so every playthrough presents new challenges. Exploration and adaptation is key, and only the best survival experts will make it all the way to the end. There are tons of changes, tuning, and new features within adventure mode, but listing them all would ruin the surprise!

So grab that Divining Rod and journey on -- if you dare.

Some New Stuff

Divining Rod (adventure only) - helps you track down missing portal pieces
Sewing Kit - repairs degraded clothing items
Newly-planted trees take a while to grow into small trees
We’ve gone through the game screen by screen and made everything look nicer and be more functional. The world customization screen in particular got a complete re-write. There’s also a new credits screen.
HUD size is more readable on larger screens
Wes is now unlocked by finding him in Adventure Mode
Beating Adventure Mode unlocks a new character

Bug fixes / Tuning

Too many to list! Basically, we’ve fixed all of the bugs that we know of that would have prevented us from shipping. As with every game, there are will always be some bugs that we miss, but there shouldn’t be anything too terrible that prevents players from enjoying themselves. As usual, let us know if you find any!
