Prosper Through the Ages
Colonists are born, educated, work, retire, and die. Over generations, their needs may evolve and dedication may diminish.Principle of Mass Conservation
Nothing simply disappears. Every bit of material transforms into something new. Resources follow their own cycles, involving production, consumption, and recycling.Food
Transform barren soil into fertile farmland using materials from your surroundings. Melt ice for water, use the water to grow food, and then purify it for reuse. Balance these elements and watch your colony thrive on the food you produce.Atmosphere
Convert exhaled carbon dioxide back into oxygen for your colonists. Tackle industrial pollution and manage various gases. As your base expands, maintaining atmospheric pressure becomes essential.Industry
Begin with mining ores and minerals, refine them into advanced materials essential for constructing buildings and crafting items. With each step, transform raw resources into the foundational elements of your expanding colony.Terraformation

I played 20 minutes. Unfortunately, the optimization of the game is tragic, drops to 2-10 fps, not playable. Sounds only when you click on something, no additional sounds during gameplay. Music I had to turn off, it does not make the gameplay more enjoyable. Poor clone of Oxygen Not Included10 found this helpful
I have played 71 hours and haven't reached 300 cicles XD how could I know what I am doing wrong? Everytime it is a fight with the interface and the slowness to plan things6 found this helpful
This game is missing a decent tutorial. you out grow things way too quickly, you run out of power, you run out of food, you run out of water. everything leads to civs dying and you go crazy trying to recoup. and just when things are going well, you go through the circle again.3 found this helpful
I really did want to like this more, but there are a couple of issues that broke my suspension of disbelief. The entire system of how gas is handled needs to be rebalanced - there are too many resources that are consumed too quickly in the process of handling the various gases, not to mention significant technical holes relating to how gases are handled (read up on carbon dioxide and how a certain amount is needed in the atmosphere, also partial pressure and how it isn't actually necessary to have a whole atmosphere). Yes, I understand it's a game, but it is a SCIENCE FICTION game, and there's a limit to how much bad science I'm willing to put up with. Also, the Steam Achievements are broken in some way - I was reading through them and should have received at least a few of them.2 found this helpful
This game isn't done. Even basics like UI and sound effects. I keep checking for updates and am surprised it is out of early access. No updates for a long time. I think this is abandoned.
Perfect for fans of colony sims or anyone who enjoys a good strategy game. Recommended. Visuals remind me Oxygen Not Included, but the gameplay not - you manage more from colony level instead of focusing on invididual colonists
