Steel Artery is a Rimworld-style colony sim aboard a giant, steampunk train

There's not much we love more than trains here at PCGamesN, but the best city builders might just take the cake. It's no surprise, then, that I've been immediately captivated by Steel Artery, which combines the two in stunning pixel-art fashion. A colony sim on rails in the truest sense of the phrase, it brings together the settlement management and construction of Rimworld and Oxygen Not Included, and the glorious chug of wheels clanking over the tracks. Travel across the land, keep your inhabitants happy, and grow your mobile behemoth into a thriving hub of commerce and production.

A small UI update

Hi everyone!
I often get comments that the "technical" interface significantly spoils the impression of the game.
I agree, so here’s a small change.
This is still not the final version, but rather an intermediate one, since the white color has already started to annoy me a bit ;)
