Hi Translators! 

“The Message from Deep Space” is now released! 

The full release is here. 1 Meteor, 900+ Transmissions. I hope you all enjoy!

(Astronomer's Note: Meteorite***)

Only a day out and we're already rated "Very Positive"! How awesome!!

For the 100+ players that have taken the time to play the Beta, I owe a many great big thank yous. For all those who found typos, faced unfair troubles with difficult transmissions, reported issues with the game’s interface, and highlighted areas of technical inaccuracy– it is much appreciated! You have created a better path for all who follow in your footsteps. 

And to those who are just now starting their journey, translating The Message from Deep Space, I hope you have tons of fun!! Thank you for joining the global Translation Team!
