I've gotten them. I'm not claiming scientific accuracy, but I've gotten the impression they drop from large/wide fourleggers.

indeed. large sized quadrupeds drop them. but only the ones that appear during the night. the ones that appear during day are smaller and drop raw steak instead.

Hey, just thought I should mention, Steam is allowing refunds for Starbound seemingly on the basis that the game was sold on fraudulent marketing. A few of my buddies just got their refund requests accepted despite having day 1 purchases.
Interesting. I'm not nearly bothered enough by starbound to go bug steam about a $15 from years ago though.

Good to note, but yeah, that's $15 from years back, I'm not particularly bothered. And for all that I'll never buy another game from the Chucklefucks, I got my money's worth out of it, even if I had to drag the fun out kicking and screaming.

Gods. I just found something called the Un-cat hat. I can now wear a rotting dead cat on my head.

Shame that like a lot of people I've activated my game with a key I got during the early hype days instead of buying it on steam. No refunds for us.

Try it anyway. I had beyond 2 hours of play and well over two years of ownership, yet they didn't seem to mind me refunding it.

Can't, it's not bought on steam. just says: "Retail activations cannot be refunded through Steam. Please contact the retailer where the product was purchased for refund availability and instructions."

Something tells me getting our money back straight from Chucklefish won't be as simple.

Not ever gonna refund my copy. Those 180 hours on Steam can't not have been worth whatever I paid for the game. And I may think the dev team is a bataillon of unfocused incompepoops, but I won't deny I'm still having fun with the game.

Yeah whatever I may think about the devs I certainly got my money's worth out of the game already imo and modding will just extend that in time

Unfortunately I cannot refund a subscribed Bay12 forum thread. As much as I wish I could.

Refunding a game after playing for 82 hours seems a mite unethical despite any perceived slights on the part of the devs.

The refund page listed it as 14 hours actually.

I'm assuming it only counts hours after the game is actually released.

Edit: Unless you're talking about yourself. In which case, you do you brah.
