The Making of Space Colony

Space Colony: Steam Edition

Space Colony: Steam Edition is a remaster of the real-time base builder and strategy game from Firefly Studios, creators of the Stronghold series. In Space Colony you colonize to survive, designing intergalactic bases that keep your crew productive, happy and defended against hostile alien threats.

Constructing elaborate space stations, paying your crew and melting alien threats into small puddles of goo while listening to Chromeo was the name of the game. Today we find ourselves looking back at how Simon and co ended up following on from the first Crusader with this creative offshoot. Join Simon and Paul as they recall the trials and tribulations of developing Space Colony off the back of two unique medieval strategy titles and collectively switching gear as a studio. From crafting a brand new armory of sci-fi art assets to designing gameplay around oxygen supplies, our veteran devs take us down memory lane in this latest ‘Making Of’ episode from the team.
