eXpansion 0.9.8 News
We have worked again quite a bit with reaby to offer the best a controller can offer, we haven't worked as much as before, we both are tiredThe Wheel of Time wrote:The Wheel of Time turns and Ages come and go, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth returns again. In one Age, called the eXpansion Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, developers rose from the world of Maniaplanet. The developers were not the beginning.
