I found the solution. The problem is that your machine is placed underneath background image (because of zPosition) To fix this, navigate to ViewController and inside viewDidLoad method change skView.ignoresSiblingOrder = YES; to skView.ignoresSiblingOrder = NO; So your nodes will placed on the scene in order they where called.
