ASTRO COLONY RELEASE DATE!

Hello Colonists! We are extremely happy to announce that Astro Colony is going to be released in about a month! It took our small team a year from the Kickstarter to get where we are now.

7 November 2022


EA release is scheduled for 7th of November. There is already a counter on the website and Steam page shows it too! Let's look closer into additional features we squeezed before the game release!

Animated Cinematic is Our way to tell you the story about first colonists exploring the universe!

A voxel exploration game could not exist without a variety of biomes and hundreds of plants!

Play the game in the co-op mode with your friends or join other hosted lobbies.

There are currently cosmic events available. They will surprise you! Use the new redar system to detect them!

Browse, install and unistall mods directly from the game!
New astronauts are joining the crew! We managed to add all faces sent to us by Our Kickstarter supporters.

We found very talented music composer (Casper) who is helping us to create best matching sci-fi music for Astro Colony! There is about 10 min of unique soundtrack composed and more is still coming! [previewyoutube=31mdoKBsLH4;full][/previewyoutube]
Optimization was always a strong Astro Colony point, especially now just before the game release! CPU - many small systems got converted into very performant global systems, like asteroid catchers into one global catcher system. Number of components created got reduced to absolute minimum. Important change for empty (not visited by player) planets. GPU - although plenty of new models got added to the game like trees, plants, rocks etc, they all got greatly optimized with many level of details. Other expensive effect are disabled automatically based on CPU / GPU benchmark scores. This allows to reduce significantly minimum specs. MEMORY - Loading times got greatly improved due to memory cleanup. There are fewer references (elements loaded) into the memory and 90% of assets are loaded in the background!
There are obviously more things to come. We have a Roadmap which we would love to share soon. So you know what is going to happen with the game after the release on Steam November 7. For example, we want to add controller support and versions for Linux/Mac before end of 2022. Expect plenty of interesting updates like terraforming, new devices and tools, architecture, single player and multiplayer mods! Add Astro Colony to your wishlist, so you will get reminded about upcoming release! Join our Discord community See you soon colonizer!
