November Development Update

We’ve been hard at work here at Mars Attracts HQ prepping our next update, and we’re delighted that we're now in the final stages of testing and can now announce a release date. The next big update for Mars Attractswill go live on December 18.

This update will add a whole host of new features to the game, while also resolving a number of issues reported by players.

New Map & Human Habitat

The next update will add a whole load of new content into the game, including:

• A brand map set in a cavernous Martian shopping mall – a very different setting to all of previous maps with its own unique gameplay challenges to overcome

• A USSR themed enclosure type, complete with new buildings, decorations and an all new special character

• Updated food and drink stall variants to provide more diversity and choice for your Martian guests, as well as improved control for managing and pricing the items sold

New Seasonal Decor Set

Since our Halloween themed decor set was so well received, we decided that it only made sense to do Christmas next! The December update will see your parks receive a very festive flavour ahead of the holiday season.

These decor sets are time-limited, but we have had a number of requests to make them permanent additions to the game. With that in mind, players who purchase our Supporter’s Edition will be getting the option to toggle on these seasonal decor sets – so if you want to build a Halloween themed park in February, who's to stop you?

Bug Fixes

As well as all of the shiny content mentioned above, our December update will address many of the top reported issues, including:

• Issues with selecting multiple humans for dissection

• Issues with placing the toilet trap

• Save/load issues where important info was not persisting on load

• Quest related bugs where objectives were not completing correctly, or completing before all of the stated criteria were met

What's Next? You Decide!

There is still a lot we want to do to Mars Attracts before we reach our 1.0 release, and we will have more information to share about these next steps of our journey soon.

But in the meantime, if you want to have your say on the direction of the game, please join us over on our Discord.

We want to hear all about what features you really want to see next, as well as anything we can do to help shape Mars Attracts into the game that you have always wanted to play.

Love,

Bernard & the Outlier team
