    Whoah, impressive!

    Anyways, one question that REALLY burdens me: Will there be any modding tools? You know, something that allows to edit stuff more comfortably than by messing with file placement and notepad, worrying whole thing won't work due to a single typo.

    Sounds awesome, Tiy!

    I'm really happy for you and the rest of the Chucklefish team. :)

    These are exciting times for indie games (and indie gamers), and it's awesome to see people like you guys helping spearhead this new Renaissance of gaming. I think what you guys are doing for other indie developers, publishing-wise, is fantastic.

    Don't let the Starbound community's gripes and grumblings get you down. I know it can be frustrating when there's this cacophony of complaints and bug reports and requests flying at you 24/7 from all directions, but it's only because they (we) love you guys and we love what you are creating! :)

    I'm super excited about where this game (and this company) is headed. No matter what else happens, you guys have left an indelible mark on gaming forever. :)

    Pixels to have access to the quest....

    Okay, thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard! I'm sorry, I usually agree, but thats just cheap progression right there.

    And while it does feel like a grind right now, and you say we will have more ways to get pixels in the future, I seriously doubt it will be balanced. Normal gamers try to find the quickest, and easiest way to obtain pixels or means to progress. The easiest way to get gold in Terraria was to make a gold-fish farm, but you never NEEDED gold.

    I knew I'd be disappointed in something...
    O well, *continues reading for the goodies, moddies, and other stuffies*

    Edit: I like the Mission Map idea.... (In other words custom maps)

    Great stuff, really looking forward to seeing the game evolve further with all those plans! Organizations and their accompanying spaceships is something I'm particularly looking forward to.

    And congratulations on the office and new project! :up:

    Most of it sounds great, though I'm a bit worried about the proposed progression changes. I like the current system where you have to gather specific materials in order to summon the boss. Just collecting pixels for each tier seems rather dull. I do like the other changes though.

    It sounds like there's a lot of work left to do though, I hope the final release isn't too far away.

    Congratulations on reaching the point where Starbound is at, and looking forward to great things to come.

    The future starts now.

    I'm really looking forward to all these new ways of collecting pixels. This will make building so much easier!

    I actually got a bit of a chill reading that. If they're able to implement and integrate all that magnificent and glorious crap, it's going to be quite the unique experience.

    Sounds awesome. Glad the current tier system is temporary. It all sounds a bit ambitious though, haha.
