The game, in a few words

Short description

Red Hope is a single-player Mars colony management and survival game. Start with four pioneers, build a settlement of glass domes and keep air, water, food and power flowing through dust storms. A free browser demo is available on itch.

A little more

Four pioneers have landed on Mars. Their first habitat has a broken supply line, and the planet is unlikely to send someone out to fix it. Build glass domes, connect life support and give the crew priorities as the settlement grows.

Keep reserves ahead of the dust storms. Order supplies, decide who can join the colony and research upgrades that buy a little breathing room. Arrivals, decisions and losses stay in the expedition log. Reach Founding Day, then keep building.

What's in the demo?

Broken Supply, tier-1 research and up to 16 permanent settlers, including accepted passengers. No time limit: reach Founding Day and carry on.

Before recording: desktop Chrome on a Mac is the demonstrated test setup. Touch controls and portrait layouts are in beta; physical-phone testing is unfinished, and Safari and Android audio still need work. Saves stay in the same browser on itch.

Content note: starvation, suffocation and pioneer deaths, without graphic gore.
