Race to Mars Status Update

Dear Race to Mars fans, Due to many e-mails we’re receiving from you regarding current status of the project, we wanted to address these questions and tell you about decisions we’ve made concerning the future of Race to Mars and the reasons behind them. First of all, please know that your concern and bitterness in face of the absence of new information about the development of Race to Mars about the state of the project are well understood. Position you’ve found yourself in is one that we truly sympathize with--not only as developers, but most importantly, as players. Please, accept our sincerest apologies for this state of affairs. Due to unforeseen circumstances and outside elements we had to put on hold any communication concerning this project. We did not want to make promises that we might’ve not been able to keep until we were absolutely sure that the work would be resumed. Before we expand on the matter, let us answer the most dire question - yes, the full version of the game will come out and everyone who bought Race to Mars in early access will receive their copy without any additional cost. However, since the final version of the game will be a project that is going to be developed from scratch, we’ve decided to stop the sale of early access version. Sadly, the version of Race to Mars that we took over from an outside developer did not meet our company’s standards. That is why we were forced to make a tough, but ultimately right call to reset the project. It was the only solution that would allow Race to Mars to come out in a way, form and quality we all - us, the developer, and you, the players who supported the project - wanted and expected. The version of Race to Mars, which will be developed by a new team will not have early access. What you will receive will be a fully realized and complete product. Due to project reset, the game will be released in 2019. We would like to apologize once more for any inconvenience you might have suffered. We promise to do everything in our power to make sure that this long journey to Mars will end for you with being happy with the game and us with a satisfaction of a job well done!

Race To Mars is a turn-based, space company simulation game. Become the head of the newly established “New Space” company whose goal would be to establish a colony on Mars. You begin as a startup - develop cutting edge aerospace technologies and use them to achieve orbit and fly beyond Earth vicinity, blazing the trail of a space pioneer and leaving the competition far behind on your way to victory.

Our game will achieve two goals - promote the outer space industry and satisfy all economy game fans. Race To Mars combines the realism of a spaceport management sim and approachable gameplay - we assure you that both subject aficionados and casual gamers will find this mixture most entertaining. Our priority is to make an approachable game without compromising its key economical and strategical features - says Szymon Janus, the CEO of INTERMARUM.

Since we aim to deliver the best quality, we're developing the game in close cooperation with scientists from a Polish space industry company, Kosmonauta.net; and we're using Unity, the leading multiplatform game engine, thanks to this we'll be able to deliver top quality content.
