Some things you might be interested in checking out before you play: We partnered with long-time fan Jason Silverain to put together an introduction to the new in-game character editor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYM-o-MaG4M Some of our wonderful testers also uploaded their own characters to the new Steam Workshop page for you to take with you on your adventures across the universe.
