I can probably imagine how things go over a Red Giant. It’s a place where all the odds and ends go, and I don’t mean that in a negative way at all. Red Giant Universe is in an interesting position in the Red Giant Family. Let’s take a look at the newest release, Red Giant Universe 2.2, and see what it has to offer.
