"LOST CHRISTMAS" UPDATE
🎄 🎄 🎄
Hey folks!
Space Santa got a bit delayed this year... His GPS was confronted with some major bugs, so he spent the Christmas days in the tool shed fixing them. Now that everything is back on track, we can finally get to the unboxing part! :) 🎁
Miguel has been in the tool shed as well by the way – he just released the original Gaia Beyond soundtrack on bandcamp, check it out!
New Quests!
🔥 Main quests: The Caduceus arc is finishable now!
🔥 New sidequests
An FTA shared cargo container and Rajid's cargo container!
Capital Ships!
Capital Ships for J12 and the Atlantic Alliance. Both come with a new slot type for extremely powerful weapons. We're also having thoughts about a "carrier" feature and slot types that spawn small ships. We will extend on this before making these giants purchasable.
