Kickstarter Project New Earth : A sci-fi survival and space exploration board game

[Jeannot]

Hello everybody

I just spent an entire year dedicating my free time to creating a board game. I poured all my energy and soul into bringing you a perfect mix of Star Trek and Alien.

It is a space exploration and survival game playable solo or in co-op where you play as one of the senior officers of an human colonization expedition.

The game will take place primarily on the ship, which you will have to manage to upgrade and secure it against external and internal threats.

You will also be able to explore planets and wrecks, or simply mine asteroids. There are over 200 events that can occur during the game, with numerous iterations possible.

You were awakened mid-journey by the ship’s automated systems due to the deactivation of the main AI. You will have to complete the expedition by exploring different stars. You will need to awaken members of your crew to direct, upgrade, and secure your ship during its journey.
You will have many challenges to overcome before completing your objective: discovering a colonizable planet, the new Earth…

The game is 98% finished. It has undergone numerous playtests with my friends and family, and at various board game festivals and clubs.

I'm sharing the game teaser with you:

The game has its own page on boardgamegeek.com

Finally, I suggest you consult the pre-launch page of the Kickstarter campaign which will begin on September 1st.

I will answer all your questions.

Hello, friends.

Members of the French board game community were concerned about the number of QR code scans required during a game. In response, we worked together to create three technical sheets that players can use to speed up the pace of the game. The three sheets will allow you to avoid scanning Crewmates, Hostiles, and Rooms cards.

Below is the result (in physical and French versions, which will be provided in the box along with the same three cards in English).

What do you think?

Hello everyone.

To celebrate my recovery and the hope for a better life for all, I’m offering you a short article on the colonization of a New Earth in Project: New Earth.

In Project New Earth, there are only four planets that will allow you to achieve the Scenario 01 objective of colonizing a planet. Here are the names and appearances of each of the four “candidate” planets.

But how will the colonization process take place?

First, you’ll need four crewmates in the functioning Hangar to launch an exploration mission. The goal will be to identify the ideal site for your future colony.
As with other planets, each planet’s exploration mission will vary depending on its star’s threat level. The mission for your candidate planet will give you an objective to achieve before you can launch the colonization process.

Each colonizable planet will offer a unique ending. Some will offer you much better living conditions than on Earth, and others… Well… Humanity will have to adapt… And did I mention the secret endings? Shh

Project : New Earth soon on Twitch and Youtube

I’m also pleased to inform you that influencers will be making a video presentation of the game based on my prototype. I’ll send you the information as soon as the programming is finalized. The presentation will be in French. It will be an opportunity to enjoy some baguettes, saucissons, and good wine in moderation.

Finally, here’s a first look at the partially filled game board. I haven’t finished editing all the cards with After Effects yet

Hello everyone.

To celebrate reaching 150 subscribers on the project’s Kickstarter page, I’m offering you a short article on the creation of a New Earth in Project: New Earth via terraforming.

In Project New Earth, there are only four planets that will be terraformable. Here are the names and appearances of each of these four planets.

But how will the terraforming process take place?
Beforehand, access to terraforming technology will only be possible by playing Scenario 02.

This scenario will unlock a special research essential to unlocking terraforming technology.

I’ll let you guess the wink in the name of the research This research will require a significant amount of research points. In addition, the completion of the terraforming colony will require a large stock of resources.

The Hangar must be operational to launch an exploration mission. Unlike colonizing a planet, terraforming a planet does not require you to complete the exploration mission.

As with colonizable planets, each terraformable planet will offer a unique endgame. By completing an exploration mission on these planets, you will receive a clue as to the outcome of the terraforming.

While waiting for the next live presentation of the game and a good little playtest, I offer you this excellent report on terraforming:


Come on, we’ll try to reach the 200 subscriber mark for the next news. Don’t hesitate to follow the Project: New Earth campaign on its Kickstarter page
