Nice one KingHaggis. :good: Not been mentioned before although their seems to a few of these survival sim around at the moment. From the site. Brief DescriptionA Sandbox game of creation and survival. You're stranded on a strange planet with nothing but a few tools and your imagination.DescriptionPlanet Nomads is an open-world sandbox game that begins with you crash-landing on an unknown exotic planet full of secrets waiting to be discovered. Gather resources. Start crafting. Build a base to survive. Create vehicles that will expand your reach and exploration potential. Don’t limit yourself. Go further and become a true planet nomad – put all your energy into mastercrafting a huge self-sufficient mobile fortress with all the facilities needed to survive on the road. Or maybe you’re dreaming of the stars??What we love about sandbox games are the endless possibilities. We are designing Planet Nomads in a way that we can gradually expand the game world and keep adding new content and mechanics into it. Those we already have in mind and also those that will come up later – directly from people playing Planet Nomads.FeaturesCreation, survival and exploration are all importantPlanet Nomads will support building on a large-scaleBuilding a spaceship capable of interplanetary travel is the first "endgame"Procedurally generated strange worlds with intricate biomesOpen design - to easy add new mechanics and features as the game growsKickstarter campaign in a few monthsEarly Access on Steam in Q1 2016Windows, MAC and Linux platforms, VRRelease DateSteam Early Access Q1 2016.

Yes very good find and will be interested in the progress of this one. Hard to tell from the screenshots if its concept or actual art from the game. But they are definitely going in the right direction and if done right could be a great survival type game.

Combined these two thread, don't forget to put the video in the shout box if you want to give the game some more exposure. They not doing too bad as they are upto nearly 20 grand although they might be hit by the the Kickstarter slow down in the next couple of weeks.

What a big project after reading what all they are putting in this, yeah the trailers look great and functionality looks like its pretty far along so far so they could be pretty successful at this and I like the whole open-world survival on a unknown planet. I have been having a fun time with my son playing '7 days to die' and as long as they include all the freedoms to let you build whatever is feasible and environment impact on your person is designed well it could be a great game to play with a friend. I hope they decide to include a standalone server that players can host.

Ah they answered my question... player dedicated servers - Check! This I think will be a huge game if the devs can deliver on what is talked about in that kickstarter, especially if they can do what ARK did and have some great modding tools so players can truly make a custom experience on their own server.

change the colour of your suite.  Don't know if that counts as an update, but on the other hand they are nearly at the 50 grand mark with 13 days left to go.

Glad they got funded because I am starting to like some of these open world/exploration/build style games. But these games hinge on their freedom and the ability to do what you want, so as long as they can deliver that and allow modders to add content I think this game will be around a long time.
