Limited time Nomi-Nomi plush!

Our first round of limited-edition Exocolonist plushies was a big success, with Sols and Vrikis now nestled down in their new homes all over the land. But someone felt left out. Someone who absolutely needed to be incarnated in plushie form.

Pride Month Nomi-Nomi Plush

Get yours here before July 2nd 2024!

The first 200 sales will include a Steam key for I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, and 10% of all sales go to the Trevor Project.

Nomi is a perfect fit for plushification. You know they'd want to own a doll of themselves.

A Limited-time campaign

These Makeship campaigns run like Kickstarter: we need to reach a minimum order size of 200 for the dolls to get made, and there will only be a single run of them. They should start shipping out at the end of September.

Nomi enjoying some of their favorite hobbies: video games and old zines. Well, they would be holozines in Exocolonist, but these Art Disk back issues will do.

Nomi hanging out with their buddies Sol and Squidley Feeterson.

Celebrating Pride in Style

Again, these dolls will only be for sale for one month, and you can preorder them here! Because this is a Pride Month event at Makeship, each doll comes with a cute little detachable cape. Nomi's dress is detachable too, if you wanted to, say, design custom clothes for them. Just putting it out there. If you do customize your Nomi plush, please let us know!

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?
