Happy Friday, everyone!

Earlier in the week we talked about cool whips, and then Metadept tweeted a gif of another cool whip but it never made it to the blog so here:




And Tccoxon hired on more questionably qualified crew members:



And now we're working on the next story mission! Here's a tiny preview:



It's Valentine's Day on Sunday! I hope you all have a lovely weekend, whether you're spending it with someone special or just gorging on discounted chocolates.

 

YES!
I can finally go all Indiana Jones with my characters ♥

 

whip swinging. Checkmate Starbound wins

 

Painted objects hype! (Far right, tent is painted red and yellow?)

I really can't wait for the story update. Nightly is a bit more unplayable than usual at the moment, which is only making it harder to wait.

 

I'm curious as to how forgiving the accuracy of the whip swing is, but I'm glad it's in! And is that a new hairstyle for men on the new redshirt Tox has hired?

 

When dreams are able to come true, than this should be the proof...

 

That is not Joel. Someone has absconded with the name of this fine Swedish fellow:

Deal with that heathen post-haste, @tccoxon! Show him the lava pit.

 

That camp site ain't safe.....just monsters roaming into the campsite.........though............this would be an interesting randomly generated location on lush and forest planets, with humans walking about n stuff

Or poison him with own horrible crafted "chemicals"

 

valentines day and robot
i got just the gif for this occasion

also war

 

I want to lay siege to this fortress. Where is my trebuchet?

 

Whoop Whoop! Glitch mission!!!!!!

Also: Super Metroid; Grapple Beam!!

 

Castlevania IV

 

Also found this fun new toy in the nightly, called the Magnorb

JOEL. WHO SAID YOU COULD TRAVEL SPACE. GET BACK TO BED JOEL.

 

Have you been downloading video games again, Joel?

 

is there any way I can play this update now

 

And for this, I've come up with a pretty good combination for a Magneto outfit.

(Purple helmet)
/spawnitem glitchtier2head 1 '{"colorIndex":9}'

(Red helmet)
/spawnitem glitchtier2head 1 '{"colorIndex":4}'

(The rest)
/spawnitem apextier2chest 1 '{"colorIndex":4}'
/spawnitem apextier2pants 1 '{"colorIndex":4}'
/spawnitem raggedcapeback 1 '{"colorIndex":9}'

Result:

 

That painted tent has me hyped more than anything. I've wanted to paint furniture for god knows how long.

You've got balls of steel.

That Magnorb could use a Bee reskin, so that Everything Will be Bad with Bees.

 

ooo... more missions... story. Things moving along...

attach whip end to swinging over danger. check.
land safely detaching whip end. check.

Well that is satisfactory. Makes whips even more entertaining with that perk; assuming that is the secondary or a function of it.

Now of the clueless chemist. Let's hope there isn't a red button in the lab. ><
I like to see progress not 2 steps back. (referring to my red button remark). There has to be more evidence when I check back on a lab rat, or wait that person thinks I am the lab rat... ><
