    I found a planet with a massive prison on it, and once I broke through the layer of sandstone on the surface, it was made of nothing but bloody meat and bones. I was impressed.

    I found a planet of ape people with a six tier base. So I blocked them all in and took it all with me! Anyone want a fridge? I've got 6! Love this game :D

    I discovered metal trees on a magma planet, looted an overdrive guitar on said planet (and played Guile's Theme on it), upgraded to a diamond drill... and found a useless but awesome grenade launcher.

    Oh, I also made a peanut butter trap. I think I'll use it tomorrow...

    I found a system called Horsebutt. There was a cowboy hat in a chest.

    That's what I did today.

    I started on the surface of my -BIG- planet
    Went ALL the way to the lava (at the core)
    sank INTO the lava (nano bandages, gotta love 'em)
    swam up RIGHT before hitting the deathzone (the very bottom of the map which kills on touch)
    And proceeded to go ALL the way back up without dying by screaming monsters with no eyes.

    Like a sir. :proper:

    I finished building a large-scale production farm on an X-sector snow biome planet. I have a skyrail network (about 50% completed...titanium is proving a real pain in the butt to find in mass quantities!) that transports me from a Glitch castle where I have taken up residence to the various farming outposts.

    Why have outposts? Well, I was experiencing massive video lag (like 3 frames per second) when I had all of my crops clustered together. I found that spreading them out minimizes this lag considerably.

    I realize that most likely this is going to be lost in the upcoming wipe, but it is allowing me to figure out plans for future development. I think what I'm going to do is build underneath a Glitch castle. I am planning a massive underground network of high-tech bases, dormitories, cafeterias, etc. with outlying farm plots protected by turret pillboxes.

    I've been looking for some people to play online with. Lemme know if anyone would be interested. I have only had the game a couple days, but I've followed it for a while and I was a big terraria fan

    Today I re-reached the fourth tier with my floran for the third time (and this time it ain't gonna be wiped), found very cool V shaped structures in a bone biome and made the tragic choice of building a storage of all my valuables in a planet, apparently, subject to meteorite falls. Is there ANYWHERE my stuff is safe outside of the ship? This is actually stressful.

    I didn't really play, I got a bunch of pixel art programs because my sai and artweaver wasn't cutting it. I didn't want to see if the resource hog corel painter would do it. To draw some stuff for in game. GraphicsGale I got wasn't making transparencies right so I had to get paintdotnet. Then it worked out okay.

    Then I drew it and tested it in game a little. And all was okay.

    Started making Hellbound, my mod. So far I've got a chest that looks like a large disembodied eyeball. Going to see if I make a bucket next.

    Update: it's unclear if anything in the game can interact with water in a useful way, bucket on hold.

    • Added decorative blood spatter

    Found a huge temple with multiple tombs in. Filled all my capacity with relics like rabbit statues twice the size of me and gold avian symbols. Each item is worth between 700 and 15000 pixels! I wish I could sell this haul and be set for life!
