There is a lot to EXODE. It may initially look scarily large and complicated -- but you really don’t need to know much to start the game. This simple step-by-step introductory guide will lead you through starting your EXODE journey and will tell you what you need to know when you need to know it (and not before). It will be constantly revised and kept up to date. If you see anything that needs correcting, please alert digital-wisdom on the EXODE discord. | There is a lot to EXODE.

+ | ===== Starting the Game ===== | ||
+ | To play the game for the first time, you only need **your usual browser** (or the [[game-client|game client]]) and access to [[https://exodegame.com|our website]]. You will also want to have perused the information about [[origins|Origins]] so that you can buy the correct Starter Pack. | ||
- | ==== The Manifesto ==== | + | You will also need a HIVE account but we will create one for you for free, if necessary, when you buy your first starter pack which will provide you with an initial setup of a ship and crew. |
- | The first and most important thing about any new game is to know what is in the designer/developer’s head. It will tell you what he believes is important, where his priorities are and, generally, which way he is likely to decide when there are multiple options. Conveniently, Elindos has written a Game Manifesto that gives a great feel for where his head is at, what he wants to do and what he wants to avoid. It is relatively short and extremely well written. You should go and read it now before proceeding. | + | |
- | https://exodegame.com/documents/EXODE_Manifesto.pdf | + | [[https://peakd.com/hive-114105/@blueeyes8960/simple-tutorial-to-install-hive-keychain-on-your-brave-browser|Learn how to access your new HIVE account]] . |
