Panda-Pop and The Game Idea

We have decided to go with the concept of making an alien survival game where the character has crash landed on the planet, he has survived the crash of the colony ship he was on. The basic idea we have is that ships are being sent from Earth on a one way trip  with the idea of setting up a colony on a planet. The ship and parts of it to make the colony and never leaving again. This is done to spread human civilization out among the stars. Unfortunately, human technology hasn't progressed far enough to achieve the long-range communication over light years, as a result contact with Earth is near impossible so this poor colonist is now trapped on an alien planet's hostile environment and never before seen plant and animal life. Luckily he finds the wreckage of the onboard AI which is somehow still working. The AI is able to communicate with Earth, but is badly damaged and the surviving colonist must find wreckage and old parts from the civilisation and from his ship to fix the AI to hopefully call for rescue from Earth.
