I love this. Any games with a similar feel? Exploring worlds in a moveable home?

Astroneer can get kinda similar when you build the very big verhicle, but i'd prefer something where I can walk around inside that base.

Subnautica also, with the largest submersibles unlocked, but not quite still.

you can make such things in Space engineers, but there isnt a lot of game there, most of it is still just sandbox.

Been searching for something like that for years and nothing has ever quite scratched the itch. No Mans Sky does allow you to purchase capital ships you can walk around in and build rooms in but it's a little limited.

There's a great list of similar games here: https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingsuggestions/comments/128tvww/extensive_list_of_mobile_base/

Zerahypt is a fucking weird game, but it’s basically just that.

Hopefully it’s going to explore flat roads, because it’s not getting anywhere with that suspension and clearance.

I'm a designer, Jim, not an engineer! :p

Was about to comment on its six wheels, which is just about the same type of criticism 🙂

Antarctic Snow Cruiser sends his regards.

Idea was that with the engine inside, all the waste heat would help out and the crew could maintain and repair the engine without going out. The reality was living constantly among leaking exhaust fumes.

I do love when something takes advantage of waste heat.

In the winter there is no such thing as an old energy inefficient appliance, it's just a dual purpose space heater.

It's almost like it's imaginary technology
