There does not appear to be any strategy to the placement of buildings. Are there advantages/disadvantages to placing one type of building next to another. What about the distance between buildings?

You really need some sort of information delivery system (i.e. an intro or tooltips or something), to explain how to get the additional buildings, I still have not gotten an iron mine, and I don't know how I feel about the fact that both of my play throughs were abruptly ended with "congratulations your colony is sustainable."

Like the base of the game could be turned into a really good game. You should get iron mines before anything else, otherwise it makes no sense because your just getting random materials. You need building info, a day counter and maybe some cool mars aliens attacking your buildings, then you can add turrent buildings and boom you got your self a defense, upgrade, tycoon game. Placement of the buildings you should play factor as well. Nice base though!
