Surviving Mars Gamescom gameplay.

Still, if the game is as moddable as other titles published by p'dox, it will be a solid foundation for an enjoyable colony builder.

The game will be completely modable

On a separate note, the plan is to start streaming a little closer to release.

Glad to hear! I'm really looking forward to some modders making something that feels much more like The Martian and less like Tropico in Space.

I'll still play vanilla, but I'll be grumbling half the time.

Once you see the stuff that is in store throughout the game with the mysteries and disasters...you probably won't be grumbling (it is pretty damn awesome)! Just saying

I'm never gonna get onboard with the art style of the game and the gimmicky use of habitation domes, but the game does indeed look quite fun.

@candyalien how moddable will the game be? The homepage says new new buildings will be designable and there's a mod manager in the main menu of the game so it's obviously a focus for it. Are we talking Cities: Skylines type of modding? Will we be able to completely redesign research, disasters, mysteries, colonist behaviour, etc?

It's going to be very modable - but I can't give you the full details until we are a bit further into the game. I will let you know the full details soon though
