Hello. I am reading Red Mars which is a very good book about terraforming Mars (which isn't about terraforming Mars) and it's giving me an itch I've had many times but could never fully scratch. I want to play a game that makes you feel like you're surviving Mars (Surviving Mars is not what I'm looking for) or building a colony from scratch. Automation, survival, chemistry. If you've ever played the Gregtech Minecraft mod, which is known for extremely complex processing systems where you can get useful chemicals (or junk) from anything with that obviously includes the building mechanics of Minecraft, I want something like that, where the goal is dependent on using those resources to live instead of it being something you can almost entirely ignore.

Basically, I want Spacechem, Factorio, Minecraft and Surviving Mars rolled up into one. I'm sure this doesn't exist but it's worth a shot to ask

Satisfactory is definitely not what I'm looking for
