This is a crafting game I've been throwing around for a while now, but I think I should try and post it now or it'll keep bugging me, lol. Dark Constructs is based off an old RPG I used to have, Crafters Legacy, in which you find yourself on a shattered planet and must build stuff to survive. This is simply that, plus whole bunch more.
------------------------------------------------------------
You wake up on a small planetoid somewhere. You can remember some things about yourself, but how you got on that planetoid is confusing you, until the memories hit you hard...Large comet...impact...planet shatters...and then blank. You look around at your new home, and notice off in the distance that there are a few other planetoids like yours. The sun seems to have disappeared, so you going to have to build in a darkness. Better start on your dark constucts sooner, rather than later...

Name:

Equipment: (backpacks, armor, etc, it's simply what you wear)
Tools: Axe, Pick Axe, Hammer, Chisel
Inventory: [Anything that you collect/make that doesn't go anywhere else goes here] (0/10)
Supplies: [anything you have that is craftable] (0/10)
----------------
Skills:
WoodCraft: 1
StoneCraft: 1
MetalCraft: 1
MachineCraft: 1

You will gain more types of crafts when they arise

You stand up and look around your planetoid some more. You see a bunch of trees over to one side, and what's left of a mountain behind you. You hear a couple strange noises from nearby. If your going to build, you better do it quickly...

(realized I forgot my equipment earlier.)

I wake up, thinking it's probably a bug nest, and slowly move away from it to another bed of branches and leaves.

You do so. You find a large jumble of rocks to one side. Flint is common around limestone, and those rocks seem to be limestone. What do you do?

You try doing, but unfortunately you make the bees REALLY mad. They come swarming out of the hive. What do you do?

You do so, and find some flint. You also find a weird metallic rock. Will you keep that, too?

(No, your not naked. That would be a Clothes listing on the character sheet. The equipment is like armor, tool belts, backpacks, etc, and not clothes)

You manage to fell the tree, but you can still hear the buzzing. What now?

The only way to make a fire is through flint and steel or, once you've gotten the required resources, blow torches, flamethrowers, etc. The bees have given up chasing you, though. What now?

I keep the stone too. It can be useful.

I then scout the surroundings for any cave as long as there is light, and when it gets really dark I'l just put up a fire.

You need some steel to use the flint to make fire. What now?

I...umm...well....I didn't put in Steel Axe as one of your tools. Just Axe. And anyways, you get a Flint and Steel tool if you use the flint and a piece of steel as a fire-creation device.
