Well, the beta for Starfall Prophecy is in full swing at long last! It’s exciting to be able to explore the Comet of Ahnket and the worlds it has devoured.

Given the size and sheer number of files involved in these updates, we’ve been putting together some new tools to extract the files in an automated […]
