matches in matchbox can run out

Recommended Posts

Just like bullets in a magazine, the matches in the matchbox should be able to run out. There should be maybe 10-100 matches in a matchbox.

And if it's raining or you have been swimming it should take 1-3 tries before you are able to make a fire.

Right now you are almost invincible once you have found a matchbox. The only threat once you have found a box of matches is if you become bored.

There should also be more uses to the matchbox, example light a torch or lantern.

Because it's so easy to survive once you have found the essential ger, the game will become a death math. I would like to make it harder to survive, so that it will be both death match and survival, not just death match.

Adidional ideas:

Smell : After a few days without a shower, zombies should be able to smell you.

To get rid of the smell you have to wash both yourself and your clothes. And unless there is very good weather you have to make a fire to make the clothes try.

It would also be cool if you get warm and sweaty if you run a long distance (need to wash more often).

A bigger map, with Caves, and snow in the north would also be nice. =)

Fishing: You can find fishing poles. Maybe even harpoon's.

Then cook the fish on a fire.

(If you carry along raw meat or fish for too long you will start so smell)

Digestive system: You should need to stop to shit at least once a day and if you do not have toilet paper it will increase your smell.

Sorry for the shitty ides a the end (pun intended), just felt the inspiration coming.
