All saves are fully forward and backwards compatible. You can install and uninstall this DLC at any time and continue your game in the universe of your choice.

[h2]FAQ[/h2]

Q: Is this fur real?
A: It is fur real.

Q: When does it come out?
A: In a purrfect time.

Q: Why does it cost money?
A: It took some effort to make.

Q: I don’t want this!
A: Good. If it was something everyone liked, it should not be a DLC, but rather a content patch. DLCs are supposed to be optional.

SimFest: Life of a space miner

Let me tell all y’all, this asteroid mining gig is no rose garden.

But what I’m supposed to do? These ores ain’t gonna mine themselves.
