Tick through prep, mid-run discipline, and recovery after a chase.

Survival Checklist

Use this Survival Checklist as an interactive-style prep sheet for Doomed Playtime night shifts. The Roblox BETA by DekiFruiiti asks you to survive until 6 AM by solving puzzle pillars, collecting toy parts, and evading monsters (including Mini Huggies-style pressure) in online multiplayer. Check items in order, uncheck after a wipe, and keep the list pinned while you play.

This is not an official developer form. It is a community execution tool meant to sit beside Controls Cheatsheet, Tier List Hub, and the deeper Guides Hub.

Pre-queue checklist

  • Everyone launched the correct experience from Links Hub / the official Roblox page.
  • Mic or chat readiness confirmed (online multiplayer fails silently without callouts).
  • Controls verified: Q blinding flashlight, F flashlight, Shift sprint, C crouch, T help.
  • At least one player skimmed Getting Started if the lobby has newcomers.
  • Device feels stable—if camera shake/lag is already bad, read Performance Tips before wasting a night.
  • Optional: check Codes Hub for freebies, then close the tab and focus.

Role checklist (assign out loud)

  • Carrier named — grabs and deposits toy parts; avoids meme flashlight use.
  • Escort named — watches flanks and Mini Huggies lanes for the carrier.
  • Pillar lead named — stays on puzzle pillars unless an S-Tier chase is confirmed (Monster Threat Tier List).
  • Floater named — rotates to whichever cell is behind on deposits (Toy Parts Priority Tier List).
  • Backup plan agreed if the carrier goes down: who picks up the objective thread?

First ten minutes checklist

  • Complete one quiet puzzle pillar before sightseeing.
  • Bank the first toy-part deposit instead of extended carrying.
  • Call the wing that feels contested; do not all stack the same hallway.
  • Flashlight discipline on: F for pathing, Q saved for panic windows.
  • Crouch (C) used on quiet approaches; sprint (Shift) reserved for committed rotates.
  • New players reminded that T opens help if they freeze on inputs.

Mid-night tempo checklist

  • Deposits still matching S/A priorities from Toy Parts Priority Tier List.
  • Pillars abandoned only for real chase pressure, not every distant audio cue.
  • Escort still watching while carrier moves—no “everyone looting separately.”
  • One person tracking approximate progress toward 6 AM goals (Survive Until 6 AM).
  • If Mini Huggies pressure spikes, temporarily promote escort duty over optional B-Tier grabs.
  • If puzzle mistakes keep looping, open Puzzle Pillars Guide between attempts—not during a chase.

Chase & recovery checklist

When something big commits:

  • Call “chase” + wing name immediately.
  • Break line of sight; stop straight-line sprint addiction.
  • Use Q only if it creates a real escape beat.
  • Do not re-enter the same corridor for a souvenir part.
  • After escape: crouch reset, flashlight down, rejoin the planned cell.
  • If wipes repeat in the same geometry, review Evade Monsters Guide before requeueing ego.

Late-night checklist (protect the clock)

  • Prefer safe deposits over contested B-Tier curios.
  • Keep one player as soft lookout even if objectives feel “almost done.”
  • Avoid splitting into four solo stories when the factory is loud.
  • If performance tanks, simplify camera swings and shorten chase peeks.
  • Agree on a “hold pocket” meeting spot if the final minutes turn chaotic.

Post-night review checklist

  • What failed first: threat reading, pillar execution, or deposit tempo?
  • Did roles actually stick, or did everyone become a carrier?
  • Any BETA surprise that belongs on Patch Notes Tracker?
  • Update personal notes on Updates Hub changes if the lobby felt different.
  • Re-run only the weak section of this checklist next session—do not reinvent the whole plan.

Squad paste block

Copy/paste into chat before doors open:

  1. Roles: Carrier ____ / Escort ____ / Pillar ____ / Floater ____
  2. First goal: one pillar → one deposit
  3. Threat focus: ____ (from monster tiers)
  4. Deposit focus: ____ (from toy-part tiers)
  5. Panic keys: Q blind / F light / Shift run / C crouch / T help

Stay honest about early-access uncertainty. The checklist cannot freeze the BETA in amber, but it can stop your lobby from improvising four different strategies in the same hallway. Tick boxes, call wings, deposit early, and let the clock reach 6 AM the boring way—the boring way is how nights are won.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Doomed Playtime night-shift survivors.

Do I need to print this checklist?

No. Treat the markdown boxes as interactive-style prompts—tick them in a note app, Discord message, or second monitor.

What if we only have two players?

Merge roles: one Carrier+Pillar flex, one Escort+Floater. Keep the first-ten-minutes deposit rule either way.

Should we restart the checklist after every wipe?

Restart from Mid-night or Chase & recovery, not from Pre-queue, unless someone new joined or controls broke.

Where do tier lists fit?

Use monster and toy-part tiers to fill the ‘Threat focus’ and ‘Deposit focus’ lines in the squad paste block.

Is this official?

No. It is a community prep tool for the Doomed Playtime BETA and should be adjusted when updates change the loop.
