To make some noise for the newly independent wikis, undertale.wiki as well as deltarune.wiki are now live. Congratulations on their successful fork from Fandom!

Even though the community vote on the fork ended just recently, the websites must have been prepared waaaaaay beforehand as they seem to be:
- completely independently hosted
- domain registered a year ago
- Discussions backend uses Discourse, which I don't think I've seen before on wikis?
- There are some kinks to iron out, but the fork seems to be pretty quality.

This was also some very quick reaction based on incoming Deltarune releases.

My utmost respect goes to KockaAdmiralac for leadership on this move.

Also a reminder of getindie.wiki/ existence, Undertale and Deltarune wikis will show up there as soon as the extension gets accepted in browser stores.

Space game finally gets updated to include space aliens. Difficulty: One. One space alien for thousands of players. Also other cool stuff like sandworms and space lasers, but seriously, one alien? I don't care if he's a "nice Farengi" type alien
