Holy shit, I've hit my 30s...
Anyways, ding, so on and so forth.
So... yeah... I've begun the process of porting The Beneath to 1.21.1. Only took me an hour and a half to get a base workspace up and running (totally not because Eclipse 21-12 is incompatible with Java 21 or anything). Baby steps...

There's still a chance I made a backup and have it on my laptop or something, but I think I did a dumb.
