Our Kickstarter campaign may not have hit its funding goal, but it did help spread word about the game and we've had more web traffic than before! In the coming weeks we'll be going from daily articles to a few article updates a week. We will continue to do weekly status updates and species videos.
For today though we have a new species article covering the silicon based Tulocks:
