📨 A LETTER TO OUR FANS
The old Pumped Desert mod is one of our most favorite downloadable mods. We know. And we are so proud to have done it, and we are overwhelmingly glad that it means so much to you.
But then we took it out of circulation and didn't say anything, and that let you down. Not cool. We promise that our heart was in the right place: we wanted to focus on creating new and better updates to best serve our players in the future.
The fact is that maintaining the highest quality of updates and live operations is impossible in our programs, since most of this mod was built on old technologies, using outdated game engines and design. And we can't just leave them there and not update, as the mod must meet all possible platform requirements. However, we want to say: We hear you. A big protest about the return of the mod version 1.17, We will find a way to bring you back these classic impressions
