A colony builder across three worlds
Earth. The Moon. Mars. Then everywhere. A quiet game about building a base that can stand on its own, and what you send out once it does.
Built in eleven days. The making-of, on Medium.
The arc
Earth
Four colonists, one HQ, and a stretch of ground nobody else wanted. Dig ore, keep the lights on, feed the people who arrive. Every building is a decision you can see going up.
“Start with an ore mine; everything out here is paid for in ore.”
The Moon and Mars
Each world has one thing the others don't. Helium-3 under the Moon, ferrite under Mars, and freight that takes real minutes to cross. Trade is planning, not teleportation.
“Dig it where it is, use it where it's needed.”
Then everywhere
A probe that flies to the next star, mines it, builds a copy of itself and sends both on. Bring every world's resource to one pad, press Launch — then sleep through the part nobody was there for.
“Open your eyes. Every one of those is a colony now.”
In the game
Every building is a few dozen faces and one honest colour. The ground is banded regolith, the crew is fifteen pixels tall, and every one of them is a real colonist doing a real job.
Your base engineer
“Booker here, your base engineer. You call the shots, I keep them running.”
He tells you what broke and what to build next. He explains each thing once, and then he stops. Silence is the normal state. When he does speak up, it's worth reading.
