Mars Inc 98 is a simulation/tycoon game with a retro, 90s aesthetic. Players are tasked with managing a corporation on Mars, focusing on mining various ores and upgrading their facilities. The game features incremental mechanics, where players invest resources to unlock new abilities and generate more income. Feedback from players highlights the fun in the ore mining mechanics and the potential for future development, but also points out a lack of tutorial and some UI/UX issues, such as unclear button states and an unnecessary page-based structure. One player also reported a bug with the last Thoriam upgrade.

Player feedback:

"I had a lot of fun with this, I think this is really promising, I particularly liked what you did with mining the different types of ores. Moving between silica to the two other types of ore is pretty fun and I'm excited to see if there's more that can be done with the way you mine ores that are implemented in the future if you keep developing it."

"It's an interesting idea, but unfortunately there are several major problems, the main one being the lack of a tutorial. It's completely unclear what to do or how to do it. There are also UI/UX issues – active buttons aren't highlighted, and the game is split into several pages, although this isn't necessary. Nevertheless, the idea is interesting and could turn into a good game. Good luck!"

Developer response:

"thanks for the feedback yeah I did not really make a tutorial although I did give brief instructions I do buttons clickable when you have enough resources although maybe it needs to be clearer."

Bug report:

"the last thoriam upgrade is bugged. it's says it needs 40 iron I have 96 iron but can not get it"

Developer response:

"I will patch this thank you for playing"
