Gameplay
addedHalloween is here, and with it a big update for Mars Attracts! In addition to some spooky surprises, we have introduced three of the most commonly requested features to the game - park inspections, editing enclosure footprints, and returning humans to inventory! As an added bonus, the game is also 10% off during the Steam Scream 4 Fest 🥳
addedPark InspectionsBe prepared to meet the board! Characters can now propose special visits to the park, and will inspect the facilities based on their personalities. Improve your park to meet their standards and you'll be rewarded, but fail to impress them and your approval rating will fall.
addedEnclosure FootprintsThe new "Reduce Footprint" toggle means you can both expand and shrink your enclosure footprints, allowing you to edit existing enclosures and create whatever shape and size fits your park.
addedReturning HumansFinding a human particularly troublesome? Regretting placing a human in the park? You can now choose to return them to your inventory, where they can also be disassembled for Specimens. Be careful - if a human is unhappy or escaping you won't be able to pick them up until you've pacified them.
