Working on this. Thanks for clicking!

sorry folks, the music should start at a much lower volume now....

wow i absolutely LOVE this. what an awesome resource for readers. and TBD on longing for Provence... maybe v2 of the game will include a space elevator...

Got it, thanks for all this. There seems to be a bit of a bug with new colonists arriving so trying to fix that now. And agreed on your other points as well.

are you on mobile? it looks like there's a bug where the opening scene/dialogue is not loading, so the instructions aren't clear. working on it now.

Try it now! And no I didn't but that is very cool.

vanilla JS and canvas plus a hefty bit of technical help from Claude.

Another person just mentioned this to me, looking into it.

Thanks for this, I'll address it now.

Thanks for trying it out. Can you say more? Was it the controls or more about what you're supposed to build/do first?

Thanks for giving it a click! Let me know how it goes on desktop. Actively trying to improve the phone experience now...

I built a desktop Mars colony survival game called Underhill, in homage to Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy. Land on Mars, build solar panels and greenhouses, and try not to pass out during dust storms. Eventually your colonists split into factions: Greens who want to terraform and Reds who want to preserve Mars.

There’s Chill Mode for players that just want to build & hang, and Conflict Mode that introduces the Red v. Green factions. Reds sabotage, the terrain slowly turns green as the world gets more terraformed.

Feedback welcome, especially on performance and gameplay!
