addedHello Mars Survivors! 👋Procedural maps, quest tracking, health management, and advanced farming – let's go back to the dusty dunes with new devlog. ☄️
changedProcedural Maps for Endless Variety 🗺️Tired of predictable layouts? We've cranked up procedural generation! Now, resource deposits, supply drops, glaciers, and every key landmark spawn in fresh positions every playthrough. No two solo Mars runs are the same—scout smarter, plan bolder, survive longer.
addedObjective Log: Track Your Quests 📓Stay on top of your survival agenda with the new Objective Log. It lists all active objectives, detailed descriptions, and step-by-step tasks. Whether it's expanding your outpost or hunting rare supply drops.

addedNew Crops, Fertilizers & Grow Lights 🌱Farms just leveled up! Add paprika, tomatoes, lettuce, and beet leaves to your hydroponics lineup for diverse nutrition. We've also introduced specialized fertilizers and buildable lighting types (like UV lamps 💡) to boost growth rates and yields. Experiment to perfect your green revolution on Mars!
