MARS / ABOUT MARS

A game about making Mars a home.

MARS is a colony-building game for Windows, currently in development. Plan a mission on Earth, establish a robotic outpost on Mars and build the infrastructure for a lasting settlement.

What exists today

The opening Unity build includes cargo planning, landing, robot construction, solar generation, battery storage, first-night survival, local saves and photo mode. The game runs locally; it does not currently submit online rankings.

Where the project is heading

The long-term ambition is a self-sustaining civilisation of one million permanent residents. Resource extraction, human arrivals, industry and tourism are future milestones.

What the artwork shows

The hero panorama and settlement illustrations are concept art. The image labelled “current build” is a genuine Unity play-mode capture taken on 7 October 2026, with the game’s present procedural models and interface.
