Astro Colony Reviews

Fantastic Game that has had considerable updates since I started playing. Dev is super active and listens to community feedback, rolls out player requests mixed in with their own vision, Just check any of the discussions and update posts, constantly talking with the community, i'm not in their discord but i'm sure its the same there. Its essentially a mixture of a Automation game / Colony sim, even with the "Threats" in the game everything is very manageable and mostly a Relaxing game with a bit of math to work out. My concerns honestly lie solely with the Colony portion, the Astronauts are mostly 'There' lol they dont do much or have any personality. (I.E. Dupes from oxygen not included or the Pawns in Rimworld) but its important to note that that isnt the main focus of the game anyway, so I easily overlook it especially in active development. Cheers

I'm enjoying myself. 24 hours in there's still a ton to do, and I'm sure I'll get 80-100 hours out of the game. Placing wires and pipes can be a bit fiddly, and using ctrl+numbers is not a great default choice for tools. Some things lack explanations and I ran into one bug which needed me to save then reload to clear the effect of a random storm, but nothing major. Connecting various planets and planetoids to my base and harvesting them is a fun mechanic.

Although at the time of writing this, I haven't put much time into the game, I can definitely say Astro Colony is a good and underrated factory game. The gameplay is up to par with others such as Satisfactory

5/5 this game is awesome. Found it from the YT channel Let's Game It Out and decided to give it a try, ended up playing in sandbox with a save that had probably over 12 auto asteroid capturer... thingies.. and one REALLY slow but infinite line of items.

great game, responsive devs, you can help shape the game yourself

The fact that you can build all this technologically wonderful stuff but can't build a door until late game tells you all you need to know.

Very fresh and different type of automation game. I love the idea of collecting new planets for new resources. It is quite softcore in many aspects as you can store and carry infinite number of items everywhere so you don't have to properly automate pretty much anything if you do not want to. Multiplayer is a bit crashy when you progress in the game, but will be surely fixed in future updates. Some resources aren't used for much anything right now.

I highly recommend this game i love automation games but I haven't played one like this before so its really refreshing. I have very smooth game play and everything just works. a tiny bit of clipping but isn't game ruining. what happens if you equip gravity boots in space???? Thanks Dev's you've done well gold star *** :)

make sure once things start getting automated you know to use the + - and * to change the game speed or else your presence on your own ship will start to feel pretty pointless (usually bad in a video game outside of mobile p2p games) visuals gorgeous mechanics fun controls intuitive annoying empty and yet so addictive

UPDATED - Just got the last achievement and got every upgrade there is. Great game. Really really great. It forced you to adapt, but never felt grindy. As a long time player of Satisfactory, Stardew Valley, and Planet Crafter, it’s hard to find fun base building games that are not repetitive. This game is different, but extremely fun. It’s relaxing, challenging, but not frustrating. Great Game!!!
