AColony

I wish I could give this a good review. Its a great concept but far too much going on to make it playable. Its almost like you are racing against yourself, clicking around trying to keep up to attacks, unhappy people, research, building, resources, planting. You reach a point where you have too much to tend to your people become useless and die. It becomes a frantic click this click that, this person is smashing his own stuff, out of wood, no food, attack, click on each person individually put them in defend mode then place them where they need to be. Why they don't just attack when invaded I do not know, instead they will stand there with an AK-47 and die. You find yourself pausing the game constantly making adjustments then high speed then pause. Otherwise, your stuff gets destroyed and you don't even realise. Playing on regular speed is far too slow and high is far too fast. So its fast to pause, pause to fast, fast to pause. Its incredibly frustrating. There is just too much going on to be clicking around and reviewing every single tiny detail. Pause, Play,Pause,Play,Pause,play, I've never played a game where I spend more time on pause than Playing. If I make someones job…

like small 3d rimworld with multiplayer!

ENG: Colony is a pretty nice mix out of Rimworld and 3D Elements; the awesome part about this game is you already have CO-OP From the beginning so you can have fun with friends. You have to watch out for enemy waves or prevent your Coloniest from Starve to death or fight against the wildlife and find a horrible end ^^ You can help each other in Coop by sharing resources or even Power so you can have some fun or laught while your friend shot his own Coloniests xD. **GER:** AColony ist eine ansprechende Mischung aus Rimworld und 3D-Elementen. Zu Beginn muss man sich zuerst an die Steuerung gewöhnen, besonders die verschiedenen Ebenen können schnell verwirren oder dazu führen, dass Kolonisten verloren gehen, wenn sie auf einer 1x1-Plattform stehen. Eines der besten Features des Spiels ist der Co-Op-Modus, der von Anfang an verfügbar ist. Er lässt sich sehr einfach bedienen, da er direkt über Steam genutzt wird. Es fallen keine Serverkosten an und man muss nicht lange suchen, um einen Server einzurichten. Einfach auf „Coop Host“ klicken und loslegen!

Game is super buggy. I get 6 people and start building momentum and it keeps crashing every 6 hours. Unplayable

This is not a bad game, but it has a glacial start and a number of issues that make it even slower. Pros: - Furniture matters not just for beaty, but for colonist's preferences (but sadly has no actual function) - 3d house contruction. - Interesting overall progression - Fun combat (but lack of multi-select and of indication of what current target is harms it greatly) Cons: - Lack of multi-select. Ex: Gathering specific plants from the wild or marking a specific animal packfor the hunt can be troublesome. There is an area tool but it selects everything, not what you need. - Glacial progress early on - Deafult map size (128) is tiny, the bigger one is a bit better (192), It isn't as much of an issue as it pretends to be at the start of the game, but it does feel cramped. I think at a minimum the game needs to pretend there is something behind the hozizon - Everything is effectively one forest biome. No water, no different soil types. - Behaviors are oversimplified. Both colonists and animals. This review is a positive one only because of an 'EA discount'. The game is not there yet.

Still pretty early but shows a lot of promise. Had fun with it and excited to see where it goes. Would love controller support too. :)
