Hide & Hold Out - H2o
About
First of all, you should keep in mind that the game is still a work in progress and so that many things are still missing before starting to see the original idea into its entirety.
If you're waiting for instant fun, maybe you should consider keeping an eye on the game and wait for a more advanced state before going any further.
In the world of Hide & Hold Out, you are one of the survivors of the cataclysm which happened near the end of the 20th century.
This cataclysm has led to a brutal elevation of the sea level all around the globe. Today, you don't really know if there is still a true "land" somewhere, but you know that this reef saved you after the disaster. Well... not only you, actually, and that's more of the problem.
You will have to find by yourself something to eat, materials and fuel to stay alive, to build yourself a home and to start building boats and weapons.
The other players can be a curse in H2o, but they can also be a blessing as working with other survivors will give you the key to both safety and power.
H2o is still far from its final form, but we really wants to give a specific importance to the interactions between the players. Giving you the means to deploy large ships to fight as a team, merchant boats to trade...
We plan to add a skill tree in the near future, so that each player in a group can choose a specific role. Such as scout, driver, gunner, or even a kind of doctor who could craft specific drugs to cure diseases and poisonings.
We want to develop this part of the game with the community, once that the classical structure of a survival game will be properly set, balanced and stable.

Early Access Review I write in German, because yes, there should also be Germans who have this Game in their Possession, or want to buy it ...
First Of all: I will give it back again, because I am not satisfied with it at all.
First of all, you come to a Server as a Noob and it doesn't take a 60s since you get shot over the Heap by the Heroes of the Game-no Time to try anything or anything else. Reentry in the Water-2 sec. Died again because I tried to dive in Sand. Aha... Then have been in it a little longer, barely found Wood. A Log in the Water, tried to loot from the Raft. Raft makes himself self-employed and you can't do anything anymore, so nothing more burns in the Oven and the like. So Start game again with nix in Inventory and mandatory Diving in the Sand. Besides, this steady swim is far too monotonous for me and look for scrap-especially since the Rock Islands are vlgling. We are beautiful to look at, but ultimately also seem boring in the Long run.
Dear Devs, you still have to rework some if it is to be a Hit.
PS. This is my pers. Opinion and does not have to reflect other Opinions. ;)

Early Access Review The Atmosphere in the Game is just horny for me. Predominantly Water, with many Rocky Islands where Loot can be found. Initially with a Kind Of Motorized Palette, later with a Jetsky you are on the way to collect Stuff. So far I have discovered 3-4 different Piles of Loot: "Wooden Piles, Wooden Trunk, metal Piles and Piles of Garbage." Oil can be obtained from the Rigs, 4 Pieces spread on the Map. As a Scar you will find Fish, Shells (sometimes on Land) and Sharks in the Water, the latter also the only Danger in the game at the Moment. Thanks to the use of a Diving Suit, you can then also loot in the Water later. It takes a While to be able to really enjoy the Game functionally, at least what is currently available. The Game was paralyzed for some time by a lack of Financial Resources, which is why it is still in a kind of "Bugged-Alpha" (probably hot, which is still a very early Alpha). The Graphics and Presentation are, in my opinion, very good for this Stage of development. What is not, however, is to the Biggest Part of the Sounds, but I am very confident about that. A Dedicated server is easy to create, which in turn is very horny. This can then be found immediately In-Game.
I already know some Games in this machart (See my games list) and "Hide and Hold out-H2o" is there on very high nievau, only the evolution of Time resonates. The Idea of the Game is absolutely awesome and I hope that the Developer can make it and realize above all that he needs help and above all a Publisher or Sponsor. It's not too Late yet. The bad Ratings the Game has already received include everyone that it can be a very good Game when it finally continues. So skin pure People, You have a really title here, don't let in die;-)
