Hopefully this changes soon.

While working the past few days I came up with game concept. It's a sort of survival/mining/crafting game. The player and his waifu cash on an alien world with a non-oxygen atmosphere. The goal is to gradually build up the tech required to build a transdimensional gate to link this world to Dwarven space.

Some of gameplay involves finding obelisks which unlock blueprints, mining into mountains to collect ore, building domes to house machines, fending off wildlife, exploring, clearing paths to drive your truck(s) to and from mines, visiting your waifu to lower your horny meter to prevent going wildman, expanding your base, upgrading equipment.

One idea I had was a VTOL that has no real storage space but can get you far fast so you can mine remote locations or just to locate obelisks. Another idea is using trucks you build to haul lots of shit at once like say from a large copper vein in a mountain back to base or supplies to a place you want to install a bridge.

A game about largely doing whatever the fuck you want so long as you can survive and not go mad.
