Hello Nomads,
Hope you have all the gifts for your closest ones ready already. We're here with the last update of 2017. The solar panels ain't gonna make it this year, but you can count with them in January, as a belated Christmas present.
Speaking of presents, if you start a new Survival game, boxes with rare materials and high-end equipment (jetpack and multitool) will await you on the planet. If you make a video of finding them, you can enter a contest for a physical box. The survival box of PN-branded goodies and a firestarter.
Here's more info on how to join:

Planet Nomads provides a unique experience by combining building, survival and exploration together and making them equally important.
Building
Building is the cornerstone of Planet Nomads. What you build determines your chances of survival and increases your action radius and potential to uncover more materials. Your options include over a hundred building blocks to choose from and use to create nearly anything your imagination can come up with. Paired with working physics for land-based vehicles and fliers.
Exploration
You may have explored your immediate surrounding, but a few hundred kilometers away or a thousand meters higher, things could be radically different. Unlocking advanced technology allows you to explore the more hazardous places where you wouldn't survive before. The planets are up to 120 kms in diameter, with biomes changing as you travel from pole to pole.
Survival
Living the nomadic life is always full of danger and adventure. But mostly danger. Surviving on an inhabited planet is no easy task, but with careful planning, caution and a healthy amount of curiosity, you can do it. As long as you overcome radiation and poisonous atmosphere, avoid being slashed to pieces, frozen to death, eaten alive, starved and generally ended, that is.
Planet Nomads has been successfully Kickstarted and is being developed together with our community of Nomads.
