CCC Says: "Nothing lasts and, given the transitory nature of the world, it shouldn't come as a surprise. This is especially true in the world of gamers. Attention shifts, systems are replaced, developers go out of business, memory cards die. Yet, such an assertion is never truer than when looking at game betas. Thanks to Steam's acceptance of Early Access titles, more people are getting a chance to sample the early builds of what will one day be promising titles, taking part in a formative experience.
It's a growing experience, to be sure. It provides a better understanding of game development, a greater appreciation for the people making the games, and a chance to make a difference in a game you love. Unfortunately, it also means save wipes."

Seven titles are set to leave Xbox Game Pass on January 31, including Citizen Sleeper 2, Starbound, and Orcs Must Die Deathtrap.
I’ll finish citizen sleeper 1 tonight. I guess if I plow through I may be able to finish part 2 before it leaves!

Starbound a crafting and exploration adventure game developed and published by Chucklefish is now available on Xbox One and Xbox Series S/X.

The latest episode of Dev Diary is a chat with Adam Riches from Chucklefish studios about his work on Wargroove, Starbound and more.
