[h2]We're driven by data 📝[/h2] You may remember that we [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2281620/view/5978007465992055894]ran a survey way back in April[/url] of this year (and yes, the winner of the giveaway has been contacted!) and now we are [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2281620/view/6250480881370350914]running yet another one[/url] (which hasn't closed yet, so you still have a bit of time to enter the giveaway)! We run these surveys to learn more about our dedicated players, you. Our community and our fans are one of the reasons we are so passionate about making [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2281620/Mars_Horizon_2_The_Search_for_Life/]Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life[/url]. We want to make sure we get it right and we need your help to do that. We can't get it right without your feedback and input though - so if you've taken the chance to fill in either survey, (or maybe even both!) then we can't thank you enough. To say thank you, we thought it'd be cool to share some of the results from April's survey, on top of the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2281620/view/6250480881370350914]£25 Steam gift card giveaway[/url] of course. And then we'll share the results of June's survey at some point too. [h2]Who else here loves stats and graphs? 🙋🏻‍♀️[/h2] In this post we've decided to pull out some of the more interesting pieces of data for you to feast your eyes on. Let us know what you make of the results in the comments below, or if you think the majority of respondents were completely wrong! We'd love to hear your thoughts. [h3]First up, we had a huge number of you respond to this survey![/h3] We got way more responses than we could've imagined, we're so excited that so many of you are so keen to help shape our game!

If you don't see your country listed at the bottom of the pie, don't fear! To make the data readable we only included countries that were listed over a certain amount of times.

The average rating was an amazing 8/10, with absolutely no one rating it 1/10! Thanks for the warm fuzzies on this one 🥰 [h3]Ok, so you rated it an 8 out of 10, but how long did you play it?[/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43757573/5781a32eda4eeca90bc8f0f7929df4b781650c62.png[/img] Look how many of you played over 20 hours of Mars Horizon 1.
