Today we are coming with another devlog, this time something more stable and homely, like BASE BUILDING!

The most important part of the game, your base. A place that gives you shelter from the violent atmosphere of Mars, storage for everything you find, place where you grow plants and refresh your equipment. 🌌

Everything you do is in some way connected to the base and it is something that will be an important part of your journey not only mechanically, but with the ongoing narrative. 🏠


That is why we implemented base building based on segments, allowing you to build the base in any way you want. Express yourself, find the most efficient layout, preferably with a nice view! 🪟


The inside of the base will fully be changeable. Almost every part of the base is something you can set up yourself, from beds and recharging stations to hydroponics and kitchen. Everything is up to you, each part of survival yours to decide and you will have options to make your base as efficient with layout as possible.They may not seem significant but each micro decision takes a role in this survival! 🧑‍🚀
For now this is all for today but much more will be coming in 2026, along with the January livestream where you will see the team working on the game! Thank you for reading! 🔥

The support means more than anything, and this is just another boost for us to work on a game you dream of, knowing how many of you enjoyed the struggles of survival on an inhospitable planet! 🚀

Each of your experiences helped us immensely in knowing what you enjoy, what should be the focus, what works great and what we have to improve. All the feedback you gave us paved us a way to work more clearly than ever before! 👩‍🚀


The game is for you and we want you to be as close as possible, to see what we're working and what is coming. To have your own voice that matters while we're making the game and decide on changes.
Having players be in active parts of development is crucial for us, to know what actually can make this game about survival fun, challenging and fair, instead of just tedious.

To see how we work, to see how we piece everything together, to share our passion with you. But to also show you what we are preparing for you in the future and join us on this ride in some capacity. You would be able to ask questions, talk with devs on livestream chat, and know more from behind the scenes than ever. 🌌
