Hey,
On March 4th I released a teaser for the upcoming 0.3.1 update, which will add Mars and other cool stuff. Today I want to change these plans a little, as during this month I came upon some other ideas.
Mars will be added (as well as the Mars colony stuff), but a little bit later (0.3.1 Pt2); I'm doing this change now because rykllan will not be able to make the necessary models that fast. He's not Tesla :D Another reason is that I don't have all plans ready yet (I kinda currently lack of new ideas for colony features - you can suggest them!)
EarthX 0.3.1 Pt1 will add LinkLink (Starlink) and other cool improvements. I have rewritten the whole contracts and missions system, which will bring more performance and reliability into it. This update will also bring a lot of improvements suggested by the community on our Discord server.
To sum everything up: I decided to split 0.3.1 to two smaller updates (0.3.1 Part One and Part Two), so you don't have to wait months for it.
BREAKING
I played EarthX yesterday and three rockets of mine exploded in a row. Shortly afterward I got a call from Gretna. She told me that she wasn't very happy to see all the Co2 I released into Earth's atmosphere. Then she showed me all the rocket emissions all EarthX players made since July 12th. Some of them even launched 5000 rockets in less than a week! After I saw all these stats I decided to... remove all rockets in the game. I always wanted to be a baker. This game will be about baking bread now. Or not. April fool! haha yes i am very funny......
Soundtrack DLC
.xrm and SPATE have done an amazing job on making the music for the game, that's why we want to support them by releasing a soundtrack DLC. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1260270/ See you next, Denis

- EarthX Linux [153.31 M]
In EarthX you can build a really big space company, starting as a small startup. You start in 2002 with just a few million dollars, and your task is to manage the company and begin to produce rockets.
You have to build some factories for creating modules, offices for searching for contracts, labs for research points production and hangars for storing your rockets. Once you have rocket built, you can launch it up into space. Don't forget, that your rockets may explode sometimes. Your first launch will be a test mission, so the customers can see your capability. Once you gained some trust, you can take some of the available contracts and shot the real payloads on the orbit.
EarthX was highly inspired by real companies like "NASA", "Suborbital Company", "RocketLab" and of course "SpaceX".
Build rockets
Unlock modules (19 available for now), design your rocket project and build their variations in your factories.
Launch, Land, Repeat
Launch disposable rockets, and later with the new technology and certification land with them on the barge.
The rockets may explode sometimes
The rocket build quality and durability have a big influence on this. The more rockets you build, the more experience you gain, and this will help you avoid explosions.
Take contracts and complete the missions
Your level of trust affects what contracts you receive. Each contract has its own missions, which you have to complete on time.
Manage the logistics on the planet
Build factories, offices, labs, and hangars. You can upgrade every building, which gives you additional work speed.
Manage your company
Upgrade company, hire employees and apply them to the buildings, and gain achievements.
It's just a.. statistics
See what you did over the whole game session. Take notes and continue with the new game then. Your next game will be better!
But if not...
Then you will bankrupt again! :)
EarthX has its own graphic style. The soundtrack is made by .xrm from SoundCloud. We kept the user interface as simple as possible and we think, that we achieved the goal!
Note, that this is an early access title. Everything can change in the future, and not everything can now work properly.
