New Twitch streamer aggregation implemented (#FuckTwitch) due to Twitch's API issues (more info on my Discord )

The colonies’ power crystal is running low! Go forth and search for shards to recharge it – Though be sure to keep an eye out for any other creatures lurking in the dark... You're just a lil guy after all.

--------

How to Play:

Collect the bright golden motes scattered across the darkened map and bring them back to the Purple Core next to spawn. Stay safe from bugs by blinding them with a bright light using the 'Emit Light' button, though be careful as you have limited uses before you'll need to recharge back at the core, though be sure to bring at least a few motes back with you.

How long can you keep the core active? Will you survive against the swarm?
