I'm glad you liked it! This was really impressive! I don't know how you were able to get it done so fast - very cool! The only problem I had was that it can be hard to keep the things you want in your view due to the controls. But game play was simple and effective and I had fun keeping everything away from my space shuttle. Haha.

Collect resources and defend yourself to leave this hostile planet, before the foreign environment, invading aliens and vengeful gods destroy your whole colony.\r\n\r\n---Gameplay---\r\n\r\nColony 3028 is a (too) fast paced Real-Time-Strategy game where you grow (aha, there is a theme!) your colony to collect resources and defend yourself. Create workers at your Spaceshuttle and use workers to collect resources and build structures (towers are important). \r\nThere are various temples of various deities, slowly getting angry at you, spawning deadly creatures if they get too angry. You can sacrifice your units to the temples to make them happy, so you can train special units at the temples and they won't try to kill you. \r\n\r\nIf the screen shakes, that means aliens landed per meteoroid, trying to kill your colony.\r\n\r\n---Caveats---\r\n\r\nThis game has been prey to feature creep. Which will result in the following:\r\n-Music but no Sound Effects\r\n-Confusing Gameplay\r\n-Missing Tutorial\r\n-Horrible Random Generation\r\n-Gamebreaking Bugs\r\n\r\n---Controls---\r\nMouse for everything\r\n\r\nLEFT mouse button -> Unit selection \/ Clicking Buttons\r\nRIGHT mouse button -> Give Units orders (move\/attack\/collect\/build)\r\n\r\n(and Arrowkeys for camera-movement, but those are KEYS and not BUTTONS)\r\n\r\n\r\nPS: beware of the ducks","title":"Colony 3028"}
