Welcome to an unofficial Aground modding tutorial!

This guide is written for the Steam version of Aground, and tested on Linux (Ubuntu) and OSX–I don’t have access to Windows right now, but I’ll try to highlight any areas where I expect things will differ. This “guide” is just an interim solution, as the developers have already announced intent to write their own, so it’s going to be limited mostly to notes I’ve taken. All that said, I hope you enjoy!
