Mars: Scarlet Horizons under Charcoal Darkness
Who will survive?
An energy breakthrough has opened space for humanity, and the first explorers are leaving Earth on a journey to settle on Mars. No journey is without danger, and our settlers will experience it. Will our settlers overcome Mars's challenges and return to Earth?
You play as Joe Smith (renamable), the mission engineer, veteran astronaut, and a billionaire thanks to co-creating the breakthrough energy source. You are part of the first mission team traveling to Mars. You will discover how the harshness of the Martian surface reshapes your relationships with your crewmates.

From Aaron Snyder,
This is my debut visual novel. Mars: SHCD is a linear story. You, the reader, may notice the early part of the VN is a bit rough. When I began Mars: SHCD, I was (and maybe still) a novice. I hope the ladder part of the VN highlights my improvements in technique and visuals.
On another note, I took the story seriously, which made all the sexual encounters vanilla. You will not find hard-core sex inside Mars: SHCD.
Lastly, there are no animations. I would like to have them, but animations are beyond my current capabilities.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to enjoy my work.
