Zyxophoj is back with another great Privateer-related surprise: they've created a small patch that adds a set of achievements to the game! The selection of 52 achievements incudes a lot of fun ones which include everything you would expect (scoring kills, progressing in the plot) plus a bunch of clever additions that you'll have to go out of your way to figure out. And scariest of all, there's one for reaching the derelict in a Tarsus! Good luck. You can access the project's GitHub here. Here's a complete list of the achievements:
