And because mods are such wondrous inventions, it really shouldn't come as a surprise that Starbound, in spite of only having been around for a short time, is already bristling with community-generated content. They're the unsung heroes of the gaming universe, the vanguard against boredom, the first and the last bastion of hope for all those unwilling to surrender their favorite game just because they're run out of things to fiddle with.
