You are not the first one to encounter this. Pepole ended up on even smaller ilsands.

As on screenshots at this topic - 0.8.8, 0.9.1 & 0.9.8 builds.. and it is still not fixed...

I'm new at this game. And it's strange that player has no way to escape at one of his first games.

If developers can't fix spawn points at the land surrounded by water, they can resolve this with different ways: one of that - give escape button with, hmm.. 1 minute cast or more, to prevent use of this feature in other situations. or item with one charge, which can teleport you instantly to random point in small area (and it will disappear after a short period of time, and also after use).
What else? mm.. at first 30 second after start you get ability to walk over water, and if you not comes to land after that, you die.
And last one - you choose yourself spawn point at small area after game started.

Read the threads: It is not a bug, cause you will see that instantly and just need to restart.

It is alpha. The game is playable with this "bug". If it won't be playable I guarantee, that it has been fixed since January.

Yes. Nice suggestions. It is on the TODO-list and I mean very near to the top. And when it is in the row they take all the ideas, think a bit and make a good solution. Just wait and see.
