You tube ,Green hell, lots of info.

It is, at first.
Once you become familiar with the mechanics of the game and understand some concepts you'll get the hang of it.

Keep trying and you'll reap the fruits.

We all have died several times in the beginning, it's normal. Don't give up!

At the beginning you apparently die for staring at trees. Then you figure things out and you end up assaulting caimans with axes.
Play the tutorial, it's actually useful.
Focus on your basic needs at first. Tools, water containers, shelter, experiment with crafting by combining random things, start seriously exploring when you're geared up and have some kind of base.

Green Hell allows the player to customise their game.
When you start a new game select the Additional Mode.
here you can set to no sanity, no food needed play like god turn off natives and dangerous animals.
