story identification - Trying to find book I read from library about a lone person crash landing on an alien planet
This was a book I loved reading and it was done in the style that you made choices of how to do things and then turn page to see what would happen.
It had some beautiful illustrations, but for the life of me I can't remember the name. Also you could die and much of the flora and fauna were dangerous.
If anyone could think of what it was, I would greatly appreciate it.

It might be "Can you survive on an Alien Planet?" By David Fickling. It has never been published on its own but appeared in the collection Planetfall (ed. Douglas Arthur Hill). It is a choose-your-own adventure story featuring full-color illustrations on most of the pages, and tells the story of an astronaut crash-landing on a planet called Abthaze, claimed to be the most dangerous planet in the galaxy.
In the beginning of the story, you are instructed to choose just three pieces of gear to bring with you from your crashed ship, which may or may not help you along the way. You encounter a number of dangerous plants and animals along with other hazards and move through different zones of the planet, like swamp, forest, and plains, before reaching an alien beacon that you can use to signal for rescue. You are also able to die if you make enough wrong choices.
Unfortunately, I was not able to find any pictures from the story that might jog your memory.
