There's 4 islands in the adventure mode.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Yup so hop toit you panzies!
More items on da whey...

[Boksi]

I'm still on the first island. I'm eking out a comfortable living, in fact:

I'd also rather like to be able to mine out that iron ore. I have no actual tools more sophisticated than a bow and arrow. I've been pulling down the trees I need with my bare hands...

If I go, I'll bring along branches. You can never have enough branches. Leaves and vines are a dime a dozen, but I'm in continual short supply of branches. I'd also bring along a metric ton of food, seeing as that's not a problem to produce.

But I'm a perfectionist, so I'll finish my fence first. And probably more too. I'll probably have 200 planting before this island is over.

[Cthulhu]

I think I'm going to restart, on a random or player-made island.  I accidentally summoned a pirate, and it completely ruined my suspension of disbelief.  I found my island very peaceful until the giant pirate showed up and never left, and I couldn't focus while he was there.

[SHAD0Wdump]

I actually tryed to machete him to death,he ended up spewing blood constantly.
So I ended up with a BLEEDING pirate,on MY island.
Decided to stop whacking him long enough to talk to him,little bit of side tracking and I'm off to stage 2.

[Cthulhu]

I did the same thing, I beat him all day with a machete.

[Boksi]

Insects ate my crops ;_;

I only saved a few sheafs and grains.

...

But I still have an abundance of berries, fish, lions, monkeys and a Kiwi Breeding.

Nevertheless, I've decided to move on instead. I'll go butcher lions for a few days for the skins, then chop down a bunch of trees for the logs.

[Rabek Jeris]

More than ten plots of grain in one area summons a swarm of locusts of a size not seen since the Ten Plagues. On the adventure mode islands, they eat your crops... on random islands, they seem not to. But it's still freaking annoying. The random islands aren't really that bad... it's just a matter of finding a decent spot. I managed to get enough supplies for a couple spears on a hard island, killed the lion near a few good resources, then hammered his spawn point into oblivion so that I could start building... it all just takes some thinking. And a little bit of luck.

[Greiger]

The locusts still eat yer crops in random island mode, they did it to me.

But why nuke the lion stone?  I just planted 100 some defence towers around it and just head over there once daily for my ration of lion meat and skins.  

Sometimes it gets lucky and hides between a couple rocks though.  If it does that I just pop it a couple times with my Arbalest.

EDIT:
My Home.  Pictures taken from on top of my hut.  Random, big island, normal endless.




Note the treeless wasteland in all directions.

Finally gotten myself a stable little home on a small island separated from the mainland by just a few feet. I've been trying to build a fence around my encampment to keep out the wildlife, and I've run into a little snag: How exactly do you rotate your constructions?

[Greiger]

Mousewheel did it for me.

[Impending Doom]

Crap, I'm using my laptop. Oh well, just means I'll have to steal the mouse from the upstairs computer.

[SHAD0Wdump]

I've encountered a big problem...
I kinda left my fishing pole on stage one...
I can't get a new one on stage 2 and desperately need one...

To hell with it!This island is small insignificant and overall BORING.
Time for the editor and random island options.

[Rabek Jeris]

On hard, there are enough lions that you pretty much have to destroy at least one lion stone x.X;

At least, it was that way on my island...

Let's see if I can't get some screens of my little fort from my normal island... I managed to get all the plants growing in it except cacao and plums. Cacao will, apparently, show up in the random crates every so often... so I've got my fingers crossed.

[Jack A T]

I use the cheats to become invincible and wield an awesome sword, and then I kill everything I see on some random maps.
