Project Planet - Earth vs Humanity News

We just released Update 1.6, introducing an all new "Hard Mode", Hurricane quick game, lot's of new languages and a dedicated Chinese website.

Read the full changelog below:

Changes:

• Added a new “Hard Mode”!
  In this all new game mode, you don’t see the effects your decisions will have before making a decision. This adds a whole new layer of complexity for experienced players, where you need to carefully consider the consequences each decision might have on both the scores and future scenarios.
  
• The Hurricane disaster is now playable in Quick Game mode!
  
• Added a new dedicated website (projectplanet.cn) with hosting in China. This should fix the connection issues some Chinese players were experiencing.
  
• We added a whole list of new (experimental) translations to the game!
  
  • German
    
  • (LATAM) Spanish
    
  • (Brazilian) Portuguese
    
  • Russian
  Please note that these translations may not be perfect yet. We’d love to hear your feedback on the translations in our Discord channel or Steam Community hub!
  
• Added new “US” and “South America” options to the server list to improve connection quality for players from these regions.
  
• Increased the font size of certain texts on Steam Deck, to improve readability.
  

Balance changes:

• Singleplayer games as Earth vs 5 AIs will now be more challenging in the Locust Plague, Influenza Virus, Hurricane and Asteroid Impact disasters, as well as the Quick Game version of the Asteroid Impact.
  
• Slightly buffed World Leaders in the Locust and Hurricane disasters.
  
• Buffed Industry in the Influenza Virus quick game and Asteroid Impact quick game.
  
• Buffed Scientists in the Solar Flare disaster, and slightly buffed them in the Asteroid Impact quick game and Solar Flare quick game.
  
• Slightly nerfed Media in the Locust Plague disaster.
  
• Slightly buffed the Public in the Asteroid Impact disaster.
  
• Slightly buffed Earth in the Influenza Virus quick game, while nerfing Earth in the Asteroid Impact quick game and slightly nerfing Earth in the Locust Plague quick game.
  

Bug fixes:

• Fixed an issue where the Chinese server would be called “East Asia” instead of “China”.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Scientists would not receive any funding for some research tracks in the Solar Flare Burst Stage.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Scientists would not receive the right amount of funding for some research tracks in the Solar Flare Burst Stage.

Welcome back to our Dev Blog!

We have great news about our upcoming updates. Get ready for new languages, a hardcore mode, and fresh content!



Language Expansion:

We're introducing support for German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Russian. While these translations are still in the experimental phase, they allow us to reach a broader audience eager to play Project Planet in their native languages. We welcome your feedback on the translations through our Discord or Steam Community page!

New Features:

1. Hurricane Quickgame: Experience the last remaining quickgame version of an existing disaster. This mode features the Landfall and Flooding stages.
   
2. Hardcore Mode: For players seeking an extra challenge, we're introducing a mode where score effects of your decisions are hidden. This will require you to carefully consider the potential consequences of your actions before committing to them.

With all disasters now available in quickgame variants, we're taking the next leap in content expansion. Update 1.7 will introduce an entirely new disaster: the Supervolcanic Eruption.

Early development is already underway, and we look forward to sharing more details as we approach the release. In this catastrophic scenario, humanity will face one of the largest volcanic eruptions in history. Players will need to manage:

1. The devastating impact on the immediate surroundings
   
2. Large-scale tsunamis
   
3. A global haze triggering a massive ice age

Stay tuned for more information on this epic new challenge coming to Project Planet!

Welcome back for another Dev Blog!

Hey everyone, we've got some exciting updates on our upcoming demo relaunch and a big announcement—we’re jumping into Steam’s Endless Replayability Fest!


We're thrilled to report that the demo's development is going smoothly, and we'll be releasing it later today!

Just like before, you'll be able to dive into all the roles and mechanics in the demo. The only difference with the full game is that you’ll only have access to the Influenza Virus disaster (both in quick and normal game mode). Of course you’ll still need to purchase the full game to experience all disasters.




Starting next Monday, we'll be part of Steam’s Endless Replayability Fest. With five unique disasters, six roles to choose from, two game modes, and countless decision paths, no two games of Project Planet are ever the same!

Plus, we’re rolling out a sweet 30% discount during the festival. So if you are still on the fence about getting Project Planet, this is the time to join the Endless Replayability Fest and get your copy!
