I'm struggling to come up with a name for the upcoming update. Because of the workbench, it is quite crafting focused. But 'Workbench Update' is a bit weak-sauce.
Originally, it was going to be called 'Propulsion Cannon,' because of the Propulsion Cannon. But as that item has evolved into an effective straight up copy of the Gravity Gun, I've come to the conclusion that naming the whole update after it will make us look like we are trying to shamelessly rip off Half Life, rather than make a reverent tribute to it.
There must be a word that convey's crafting, tinkering, creating... Customisation of equipment loadout... Help!
