Outfits #2 - Evil Duck Hat

 This is probably one of my favourite missions: A Freaky Flashlight


Outfits #1 - Jelly Outfit

 Even if you skip the tutorial, dear old Grandma literally throws you at his feet so it is very hard to miss this quest. It is repeatable and you can get him more jelly for a 10$ reward. Not the most paying job... but it gets you started.


And you get a hat and top so you do not have to keep running around naked!

Journal #6 - Trying to use a controller rather than keyboard

Using a keyboard to play is okay in this game, but when it comes to fishing...
I am not sure how other people manage, but the only technique I found that worked was to sweep and lift the mouse to sweep again to the side. Except that when fishing an epic fish you can apparently add 'smash mouse down' loud enough to wake up people (which I did). So I thought I would plug my PS4 controller in and see if it worked.

Journal #5 - My first complete collection

  After I realised the Ocean collection was not the only one missing from the collection guide I was following, Stella and I started on the Ice Cave collection. We had actually stumbled upon the place before, long enough to find the costume but we mostly just passed by. We now have the ice cube but then she had to go for the evening.

 So I did what I tend to do when Stella is offline and I have time to play: I fished. I missed another epic but caught two, including one new. And I actually caught the 3 artifacts I was still missing.


Journal #4 - Quest for the 103 Presents done!

  It has been somewhat difficult to find a complete guide and I had to go back to the village and check all gifts several times. But I have done it thanks to this guide! Hooray!! The Propeller Hat combined with the Jet Pack makes for a powerful combination.

Journal #3 - Thoughts on how to fish safely

Fishing in the game is not safe. I made the mistake once to keep fishing while there was thunder and I ended up in the water along with a pearl and a gold ingot... right, now as soon as thunder starts I head to shore.

When I fish with Stella on the island, she usually moves the fish to an helicopter or delivery vehicle, depending how accessible that fishing pond actually is. On my own I have to be careful as while getting the fish out of the boat sometimes got me into the water as the boat slowly drifts away from the pier. You respawn on the pier itself so close but if you were holding anything, it is lost.

Since I just got the Jet Pack I have tested it and it might not be the most appropriate outfit to fish but since there is no actual benefit to using the fishing set...

Journal #2 - Cars!! (and other vehicles)

  There was some vehicles that Stella had not unblocked herself while playing on her own, or actually did not know about. Yesterday we worked on getting a lot of them!

 If you are looking for ways to get any of those, since I have not found a complete list so far I listed two links on the How to get page.

This is the Sporty car, the only vehicle I bought from a store. Really quite fast and I like the design.
