Hi! I started playing a while back, and felt I was able to find the/a route of progression in every area. But i dropped the game for a while after getting to ||the sky islands from the chimney canopy.|| I got pretty stuck there, and have no idea where I would go other than progressing that way. I can't seem to ||find the save area there. My only lead is the radar dish place but whenever I get there, the days usually nearly over. || Is there something I'm missing or is it just a skill issue?

Wish i had friends to ask about stuff like this but Im the only guy I know who plays this game lol
Yeah, that particular area is tough, especially with the gate. There is a shelter near that area - it's ||not in an obvious location||, but it's ||decently close to the radar dish place||.
I'm just worried i'll end up stuck there because i manage to mess up a jump every once in a while lol. but good to know it's roughly near there
Well, are you sheltered in the Sky Islands right now? Or stuck trying to get in?
Stuck trying to get in at the gate entrance from the chimney canopy. I couldn't figure out where else I could go from there, I found some promising areas but couldn't seem to make a jump or figure out what I'm supposed to do
So I guess I'll try to find the shelter in the sky islands
You aren't really supposed to do anything in the Chimney Canopy, the goal is to explore 
Chimney is one of my fav regions. There are always multiple ways to get to places, and imo chimney is the region that highlights that the most.
Sky islands is pretty difficult but it’s compact, so the layout is pretty easy to memorise. If you want to find the shelter, keep looking there are only so many places you can find before stumbling across a shelter. the only issue is running out of karma and there’s always enough food in Chimney if you go looking for it.
I did end up finding where it is but it seemed like a jump or something I couldn’t make… maybe just a skill issue or I missed something but I couldn’t find another way to it so not sure. Tried throwing a spear into a wall to get to where the observer guy was saying the shelter is but it wouldn’t stick so not sure what I was missing
Throwing things like spears or rocks mid jump give you a little boost into that direction
i feel like that's not necessary for them to know
instead i might suggest to try again with the spear throw, perhaps do it after jumping towards the wall so it is more likely to stick
Yea, it’s just throw boost works best for me in that spot if it’s the jump I’m thinking about
As there are always rocks nearby
But yea try what exist said
do they need to know about that though, if there are other good methods that can be used
especially cause SI is their 4th region
that mechanic kinda trivializes some parts of the game
It’s a useful little tech that the game doesn’t really tell you about and helps in many other places tho
It’s just a little boost that makes jumps easier
I would disagree
jumps can be...
not fun at times
and considering that they seem to have quit the game once due to jumps
it's not unreasonable to give a tip that would make them easier
it's not like it's a win button either
just a lil thing to make jumps more consistant
Some jumps are pretty unfair without knowing about throwboosts imo, and even with throwboosts you are still using items to make it a bit easier
oh i didn't see that part

Made it to the safe area place with the throw boost bit, I probably could've stuck a spear in the wall if I kept trying but 2 centipedes already made me use a couple lol
thanks guys
went up to the radio and found this weird black and blue ball, i feel like i saw one before, but had no idea what it was for. Figured it was important so I took it back to my shelter. Also having a lot of fun being all floaty with the beetle things, i think we're forming a sort of partnership where they let me grab them and, uh, i don't really do anything but I probably won't let them die
but now i'm realizing it's gonna be 'fun' farming to get karma to leave this place
🙃
There are food sources nearby. The main issue is to get them quick and always have a weapon in case of vultures.
i got to a second shelter here and the sky islands are way bigger than i thought they would be
pain but also this is cool
is it okay if i am on cycle 56 and I still can´t get out of ||Shorelines???||
did you mean to make your own thread
I don´t know... I still don´t even know what I have to do or where I have to go...
I made this thread because I'm in the same boat lol, if you want someone to help you you can go to the "vanilla first playthroughs" channel on the discord and make a thread like this one
and they should get back to you
oh mb lol
what Is the game about 
I don't even know to be honest I just explore places and then die like 10 times and then eventually make progress lol
me:
Hi! Follow nel's instructions
But to answer your question...
It's normal to feel & be lost in this game, though there is a plot. Don't be demotivated, getting stuck just means you have more time to explore the region you're in
