We are working with the European Space Agency
Hi all,
We'll get straight too it: we are delighted to announce that we are working with the European Space Agency on Mars Horizon!
We made the announcement earlier today over on on our website and we are really excited to be working with such an important partner on making this game as authentic as we possibly can.
Design Director, Tomas Rawlings, said "Working with ESA is a massive bonus for the Mars Horizon universe. Having access to real launch control specialists who can explain the real life pressures and challenges they face will help make this game as authentic as we can. With the upcoming ExoMars mission in 2020 this is a fantastic time for us to be working with the agency as they put the final stages of preparation on this launch.
The involvement of the ESA is a double win for the gameplay as we’re not only getting to talk to people planning actual missions to Mars but also the people who plan the strategy of the agency itself - all of which we’re planning to use to help the gameplay. To say I’m excited by this partnership is an understatement, I’m (excuse the pun) over the Moon!"

We also thought we'd double treat you with a few more screenshots from the game...
