Hey guys, I thought I'd share this, been watching this game for a little while now and their kickstarter just went up, and as I think we can all agree, more space games the better.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/intermarum/race-to-mars

go check it out, and donate if you want to see this made as much as I do :)

It'll be the closest thing to BARIS as we'll see for a while I think.

Yeah, we really appreciate it ;)

Hi everybody :)

My name is Szymon and I am CEO of INTERMARUM - game development studio based in Opole, Poland. We are responsible for Race To Mars :)

The game can be for sure described as a successor of 'Buzz Aldrin: Race Into Space', with a lower difficulty level and greater availability for the casual player, but also hardcore gamer.

If you have any questions I am ready to answer them at anytime :)

I pledged. This sounds interesting, and we always need more space games.

Now we need to see about getting this moved up to the general sub-forum to get this some more visibility.

I've got to be honest with you, I'm not too inspired to see obvious lag in the game at this early stage on the demonstration video. The graphics are nice and its a neat idea though. Hell you've even got clouds in a unity engine game. Proof that can be in KSP I guess!

Actually Matrix games is working on a remake of BARIS. They will be demoing it this weekend at Historicon, with guest Buzz Aldrin. It will be in beta fairly soon.

Despite the unsuccessful crowdfunding campaign on KickStarter, we did not give up! Race to Mars is still being created. In order to speed up the game development, we decided to make it available on the market right now, in its initial form. What we are publishing today is a slightly modified version of the game, which was sent to the media during the KickStarter campaign.

This is the PreAlpha version, which is still missing a few basic components - IT IS A VERY EARLY VERSION! We publish it for all our fans and supporters from the KickStarter campaign.

Right now we are working on the tools and as soon as the Alpha version is reached, which will allow a short game, we will initiate the media campaign. This should take approximately 4 weeks.

Also, right now we need your comments and support, as it has already been very valuable.

We are going to send you updates about the Race To Mars game every second week, so that you should know the current development status. Soon a Linux version should be available as well as a tool to translate Race To Mars to other languages, for what you have asked during the KickStarter campaign.

Of course, we will answer to all your questions or comments, also related to our our website.

For more information, please check our website - www.racetomars.pl

Race To Mars - new build!

If you haven't bought the Alpha version yet, you can do it at our http://www.racetomars.pl/ webpage!

In the last two weeks we've done the following:

the project manager and engineer generator system (the astronauts still wait for their turn ;))

a salary and workforce development system - for engineers and project managers (still, it won't be very visible to you yet)

new gui for engineers and project managers

random events appeared (with no impact to the game yet) all text in the game is now imported to an .xml file

which with our tool will soon allow to translate RTM into any language

we've changed some graphical details and the water

we've added new building shapes for appearance tests

The next build should be also available for linux.

Hi guys,

today, Race To Mars - an economy/strategy game where you lead a newly founded Space company onto it's road to Mars - has reached its 5th update.

The game is funded by selling alpha access and has been already bought by over 200 fans. In the current version you can see the new scene design, the techtree and our system for spaceship design. The game is still very early in development and your generosity will greatly help speed up development.

If you are interested, we invite you to buy the game at http://racetomars.pl or to track our progress at facebook.com/racetomars or twitter.com/racetomars.

We would also like to ask you for your support on Steam Greenlight: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=148496621
