Friday Blog - The Construction Update, 0.6.0, is now Live!



We have just updated Colony Survival to version 0.6.0! You can now play the Construction Update. Changes include:

  • Diggers. Colonists that can remove blocks
  • Builders. Colonists that will fill the construction area with the specified block
  • Special Diggers. They will remove only blocks of the specified type
  • New research to extend the size of the construction area
  • An experimental Mac Port!
  • A new graphics setting that allows you to increase the view range. Requires rebooting the game
  • Optimized NPC rendering, resulting in massive performance increases for big colonies
  • Hold CTRL to crouch and not fall of edges
  • Hold CTRL to recruit 15 colonists simultaneously
  • Two new achievements
  • Multiple updated icons


We'd love to hear your feedback and see screenshots of what you've let your colonists create - and what mountains you've crushed ;) We've tested the Mac port on a Mac Mini now. If you've tested it on a different Mac, please let us know!

We've made a simple video that demonstrates how the new construction jobs work:

Saturday, I accidentally broke my desk chair. While shopping for a new one, we also decided to buy a Mac Mini. Porting the game was a lot easier than expected. There were some small issues with the lighting, but within less than a day of work all those problems were solved. The game should work on Mac now!

We also decided to add a final new feature to 0.6.0: the special digger. I think its most useful purpose is removing trees. You can command him to remove only one specific block, for example logs. It's very useful when you want to remove all the trees from the side of a hill.

0.6.0 is a huge update that combines months of changes. You can find the full changelog in-game. We've tested the update as well as we could. The password to the dev branch has been released publicly on Discord last Wednesday. Despite all the effort, we're sure some bugs have not been found yet. Please report them when you find them! New features are often tweaked in later updates, so if you encounter any subtle annoyances, please describe those problems too :)

We hope you'll have a lot of fun and we'd love to know about your experience!
