Hey guys, it's KFC. I don't know whether you guys still play Starbound, but there's a huge update coming out. Tons of new biomes, planets, and weapons (maybe valve needs to take advice? :P) will be added into the game. But more importantly, an entirely new race! It's a steampunk based race, called the "NovaKids"! Not to mention an entire revamp of the combat system! And, perhaps best of all, Starship Expansions!!! Woot! You can make a huge starship with multiple rooms!

There's also an abundance of mini-games being added in, like Bowling, Beach Ball, etc. Fireworks, lazer-guns! LAZER-GUNS!

Ship A.I. (S.A.I.L) is also being added in. It looks to be good, but hopefully there will be a lot of dialog. Not just, "Would you like to travel to this location? Great!". It looks to be good otherwise.

Warp gates. Hopefully these will lead to more than just between alpha and beta sectors. I also hope you'll be able to move them.... It'd be great to have a warp gate near your house. Conveinience > Biomes.

Boats! King of the Red Lions, anybody?

Improved planet navigation! I'm excited for this. The planet traversing is very annoying.

"The Outpost". Shops. Hopefully improved? Quests. Yay! I loved the quest system in this game. Hopefully you'll be able to hunt down bounty hunters? (I always wanted to do that in Starbound!)

Cooking Update. Meh, I never liked cooking.

Scriptable UI. Good for programmers, I suppose? It actually looks pretty fun. "Mazebound 64", little N64 refference.

Bug Catching? Boring, unless you can do stuff other than display them.

See the full trailer here:

Anyway, it looks great! I'll see you guys later. -KFC
