Take on Mars? What is it? When’s it out?

When do I get to play it?

Take on Mars will be on the Steam Early Access Program, and hold your horses–no really, hold on to them, blast off on August 1st.

So what is Take on Mars?

You take the role of a Rover Operator, allowing you to control fully simulated mobile Rovers and stationary Landers. In this you will work your way through the numerous Science Missions and will unlock the secrets of Mars along the way.

There are 3 main gameplay modes:

• Space Program – Develop new technologies, vehicles and instruments to tackle the tasks ahead for the Science Agency.
• Scenarios – Head straight to the surface of Mars and complete individual missions centered around various Science Missions and objectives.
• Editor – Create scenarios or free-roam, your choice.

Sound like something out of this world to you? (Puns are puns-ey?)
