disclaimer
Since the game is early access, the game is not at its full potential, we have disabled some major features for development, but we are still deciding to release the game early because it will help us with funding to continue development on the game and make it better. There may be some bugs, so we are asking that you report them in our discord or here on steam. https://discord.gg/HysMSgEEnj
Your purchase will directly fund the game and further, its content and development, we still have many things we want to add to the game but we are a small group of developers and could use more community support.
New Features
- Random Checkpoint System
New Boundry System
Radar Construction
Overall Optimization
Our new checkpoint system, spawns checkpoints randomly around the map, at these checkpoints you will gain XP (research points for when the upgrade system is added), and at some checkpoints, you will find parts/hardware, after you collect 3 parts you can place down a radar by pressing G This will expand your map boundaries, allowing you to travel further distances and find more checkpoints.
The boundary system limits the distance you can travel on the map, when you go too far out of bounds your rover can lose connection to the satellite, to expand your search area and boundaries, you need to collect parts to construct a radar that can be placed down.
We have fixed many bugs with the game, there still may be more. If you run along with any bugs, issues, or have anything to suggest, please join our discord, https://discord.gg/HysMSgEEnj, or report it on steam.
Future Development Goals
The future of Rover Simulator is big, we plan to add many more rovers, planets, and features to the game. We plan to add an astronaut that you can play as and land on planets and conduct research.
We also would like to add a colonization system in the future, this is a big addition to the game but your support and funding for the game now will benefit the future of the game.
Thanks, everyone! Remember join our discord, where you can ask questions and give suggestions, we developers like talking directly to our players. https://discord.gg/HysMSgEEnj
