For more, here is the overview as provided by the developer.

Overview:

In Horizon Journey, players step into the boots of a member of the 17th Endeavor Mission in the year 2053. Your mission: survive the hostile Martian environment, establish a foothold for humanity, and begin the monumental task of terraforming. This is not just another sci-fi backdrop; Horizon Journey offers a vast, explorable Mars rendered with unparalleled realism, presenting unique survival challenges drawn from the planet's actual conditions.

Establish your base and expand it into a thriving colony. Horizon Journey features a robust building system that allows for extensive customisation and strategic placement of structures. Power your growing settlement with an electrical grid and utilise advanced technology, including specialised tools, food synthesisers, and aquariums, to sustain life.

Explore the vast and unforgiving landscape, uncover the secrets of past missions, scavenge from old colonies, and navigate treacherous conditions like sandstorms and radiation zones. Use custom-made vehicles and monitor your health, oxygen levels, and hunger to survive the extreme conditions of Mars. Be aware of the hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface – it's not just the atmosphere that's thin, but the margin for error, too!

Whether you brave the challenges solo or team up with fellow spacegoers in co-op multiplayer, every decision counts! Ready to take on the ultimate survival challenge and make your mark on the Red Planet?
