Today we broke through the atmosphere in trailmakers ready for pickup from those back at mission conrol.

I haven't posted a lot of gaming content to by blog, idk why, but I think I am going to start, especially for the ones that are good memories with my son.

Today we hit 100% of the required parts required to build the space ship and leave the atmosphere of the planet that the story is set in. Trailmakers is a game where you design and build your own vehicles. The campaign mode standed is a story where you are in a high tech freighter ship that crash lands on a distant planet. Your crew back home can come as far as the planet your on but cannot break through the atmosphere. Your job is to collect all the wreckage and gain all the parts required for a space ship build to take you out of the atmosphere to meet them.

There were a couple really heavy salvages to gather up, this one is high in the floating islands and is the cockpit fo the space ship.

I thought this was a cool shot of one of our builds with the suspension fully squatted out with a heavy load on the back.

Multiple Salvages

It took us way to long to realize that we had enough power cores to add a bunch of tractor beams to do multiple salvages at once. Each tractor beam only has the ability to pick up one salvage at a time.

Some wild moments

This clip brought both of us to curled over laughter, I wish I had recording on to get a full clip of it, this screenshot is the best I got. What happened was my son was being super silly and blew us up, but somehow the seat of the last build stayed in while we respawnd and our new vehicle picked it up. Not only that, but the broken seat was still usable and he was able to sit in it!

acheivements status

Currently I am quite a ways from getting 100% of the achievements for the game. I think I will finish 100% of the stranded campaign because it is super fun, but probably wont 100% it.
