Its the best 20 bucks you can spend on a game if you have any interest at all. Hope you enjoy it, and watch out for trees- they can get ornery! :)

Originally posted by RENGOKU:How does it handle things like FNIS compared to Vortex?Thunderstore's manager is dedicated to just Unity games, afaik there's no FNIS equivalent to deal with.

No idea but there also could be the possibility that some mods were abandoned and others took them over and moved them to the other site to avoid a potential take down/conflict.
