About Space Colony: Steam Edition
Half way across the galaxy with limited resources, a mega corporation looking over your shoulder and a ragtag crew expecting a pay cheque, it's up to you to survive and turn a profit. You have a base to build and hostile alien threats to neutralise, but ignore your crew and the colony is doomed. Each colonist has a mind of their own, so keeping them safe, happy and alive is no easy feat. Nurture your crew and they’ll team up to protect your intergalactic empire, forget to pay them and you’d better post a guard at the reactor!
As a commander of military and commercial installations on Earth, Blackwater Industries wants to see how you handle the rest of the galaxy. In Space Colony your career is in the hands of an unruly crew, all looking to escape life back on Earth. Choosing from more than 100 different buildings, it’s up to you to design and build a colony that meets their needs. Before you shell out your credits on iron extraction and lucrative space chicken production remember that without laser defences, a sauna and a half-decent restaurant nobody is going to want to work for you.
Steam Edition
Created exclusively for Steam, this remastered version of Space Colony features a new Galaxy mode 'Obar' mini-campaign, Steam Workshop support, achievements, trading cards and Steam Cloud for saved games. Space Colony: Steam Edition is the definitive version of the sci-fi base builder for fans of the original, the builder genre and the Stronghold series, with which it shares DNA in both gameplay and an irreverent sense of humour.
Also supported are settings for HD graphics unavailable in the original version, allowing players to view their entire base on a single screen! Detect alien life forms early and counter-attack before they get near your crew, keep an eye on all workers at once or harvest resources off-base while making sure everyone visits the colony psychologist.

One of the 'survial builder' best games to ever come out on PC2 found this helpful
This is a real good game.
This was the first ever game i played on pc back in 2003 and is what got me into the sims with that said the game is still very much a game from 2003 with all the limitations and jank from when the game first came out, i'm sure that most people playing this game are like me and are playing it for nostagic reasons and so the jank is a bit less annoying but it's still very much there such as not being able to rotate things like beds, the pause key being P which yes makes sense but it's just awkward, the space bar or the number keys 1,2 and 3 for the time controls would've been far better, you also have having to right click to exit out of stuff and to deselect a character which is annoying as it leads to you telling characters to do things you didn't mean to tell them to do because you forgot to deselect them or didn't realize you still had them selected, there's more but that's the stuff you're gonna noticed within the first few minutes of playing.
keeps you thinking and on your toes.
