Developer Log #14 :: What’s Next?
With the latest release of Mercury Fallen I believe I’ve stabilized many of the core issues players had with the game. Creating a completely new colonist behavior system may have been overkill, but I wanted to ensure that the system would expand well as I continue to add new content and colonist interactions. I’ve […]
Read MoreAlpha Demo 1.2 Update
It took longer than expected, but I’m happy to say that the 1.2 update is now available on Itch.IO!

There are […]

A lot of the core systems for Mercury Fallen are in place and a lot of my work has been focused on getting in the game play content. This, as always, is proving more of a challenge than I originally thought, but proper planning goes a long way. There has been one lingering system that I […]
Read MoreDeveloper Log #9 :: Research
Now that I have a more unified user interface setup I can start integrating more of the core features of the game. A big part of a colony survival, of course, is research projects which unlock new place-able objects, recipes and more. Research is handled by your colonists at the research station after choosing what research […]
