Is development finished?

[Blade!]

They said "love"... would anyone LOVE a switch announcement? Gotta be new dlc.

they said "its last expansion"... gotta be a new expansion.

*fingers crossed*

Development taken over by abstraction games. New content coming on Monday. And a DLC sometime this year. I'm excited!

So excited we can close this post on a happy note!!!! Let's see what our new developpers will bring us...

"Not gonna lie, they had us the first half"

...Is how I felt when I started reading this thread after having purchased a season pass. I can't wait to see some new content!

I think this may be more than a Switch port, but I'm not ready to hop on my hypetrain yet.

I'm glad to have been wrong. This is really good news. Going to reinstall Surviving Mars and start achievement hunting while I wait for more content!

Btw, if you can afford the $5 DLC I would pick it up, even if it doesn't greatly appeal to you. This DLC is probably how they plan on paying the new studio's paycheck.

So, hopefully the new developers will maintain good lines of communication with the fans. In particular, I’d like to know the scope of future planned developments. The tourism and associated building pack are nice, but not game changing.

Can we get more planetary development? Deeper interaction with rival colonies?
Satellite colonies (in both the sense of orbital colonies and smaller colonies established by yours)?
Colonizing Phobos/Demos?
Better infrastructure, such as trains/monorails?

So many other options, but the demonstrate the scale of what could be done.
