Happy Exoversary!

Exocolonist just turned one!


We're celebrating with a 35% off sale all this week, and the demo will be available for a limited time . It's been a wonderful year of player stories and kudos (the kind you can't spend on soysweets and cake, usually).
  • People have written 143 fanfics about Exocolonist on Archive of Our Own.
  • They've posted countless works of fanart on Instagram, The Platform Formerly Known As Twitter, and yes, even Tumblr.
  • Exocolonist was nominated at just about every video game festival last year, and even won a few (Best Video Game at the Canadian Screen Awards, aka the Canadian Oscars!)
We've been celebrating a month-long Vertumnalia festival on the Finji Discord with giveaways and livestreams. While prepping for a developer Q&A, I took a trip down memory lane and dug out my original design documents from 2017. Read my post about it but beware of spoilers, spicy details about inappropriate romances that never were, and Sol's long lost sister who was cut from the final game. Stay tuned for streams here on Steam and on Twitch from some very lovely streamers on the 26th, 27th, 28th. Happy Vertumnalia!!!
Oh - and if anyone was wondering about the outcome of the plushie survey:
  • We had 3000 responses!
  • People want: Vriki (73%), Sol (60%), Socks (54%), Hopeye (52%), Dys (42%), Rex (39%), Sym (37%), Nomi (34%), Faceless (29% adjusted for being added late), Tangent (28%), Tammy (27%), Unisaur (25%), Anemone (23%), Cal (22%), Marz (14%), Vace (6%).
  • 14% want a character, 37% want a creature, 49% want both.
  • 90% of survey responders were playing on Steam and 80% heard about the survey from Steam
  • You're all wrong about Marz!! Marz is the coolest!
  • Thanks to everyone who shared how their day was going. exosmile
Still no guarantee we'll make these plushies, but we will let you know when we have more news on them! Vriki and Sol are the clear winners! - Sarah nyaa

  • Exocolonist is still in development.

    Growing up in humanity's first extrasolar colony, you and your family are refugees from Earth flung into a new world of wonder and danger. You have your whole life ahead of you: Will you become an engineer and bring modern technology to this jurassic planet? Or cultivate the alien plants and live in harmony with exotic nature? Battle the massive beasts which rule Vertumna, or nurture future generations of humans?

    Your decisions matter; whether to study, learn to play an instrument, obey your parents or sneak out to explore the hazardous jungle. Adolescence is full of awkwardness and clumsy mistakes, but everything you learn will make you - and your colony - stronger. Your memories, decisions and friendships will be at your side when strife is near, becoming collectible cards used for everything from taking a math test to escaping the jaws of a wild snapbladder.

    A strange connection to an orbiting wormhole causes you to remember events from your past lives. It'll take many lives to find every ending and ultimately a way to save both your colony and the planet.



    Exocolonist is going to have this great stuff:

    • 800 story events - too much to experience in one lifetime, but luckily you'll have many.
    • 250 battle cards - loosely based on poker rules, make the best hand from cards like Up to your Knees in Mud (adjacent cards get +1) and Testing on Humans (cards to the right become blue)



    • 30 endings - find every way to die, aim to become Governor one day, or live a simple life as a botanist and let others take care of the monster-slaying.
    • 25 jobs - goof off behind the counter as a depot clerk, or join a survey team and chart the Valley of Vertigo.
    • 15 skills - will you focus on empathy and organization, or train up your toughness and bravery?
    • 10 dateable characters - dogboys, aliens, hot politicians and cold-as-ice killers. Can you guess what your childhood friends will grow up to be?



    Plus all the basics:

    • Acne
    • Time loops
    • Alien pets
    • Growing up
    • Dying young
