Not having a run button in a horror game is an awful choice. They're basically telling you from the start of the game that you'll never be in any danger as the player.

Mars actually does have clouds! They are rare compared to other planets and they usually form around the polls. Unlike our clouds they usually don't hold water vapor, but other gasses like CO2 can start to crystalize into clouds. These clouds are so small and thin we struggle to see them, but we have seen them.

that Glados joke what amazing ngl

Mars has a whole one big old circle cloud that shows up every summer. It doesn't spin or any cool hurricany things. It just shows up and sits around near the north pole sometimes. There are some high and wispy ones as well. But only the big old round cloud has water in it. Mid effort from team cloud I think. Team dust storm is where it's at.

I didn't even know Discord goes in darkmode haha

If you could run this game would be over in one hour. Ridiculously short.
