Cast Out Colony

One of the best games in the genre I've played in a minute - the way those sections and the town building weave together is insanely satisfying.

Amazing combination of city-builder and survivor-style combat. I'm still beginning, but there seems to be a lot of things left to unlock, so looking forward to it.

The base building is fun, but the gameplay itself is a bit underwhelming. Still a positive recommendation, but it can't compete with the bigger names in the genre imo.

This game is an absolute gem! From the moment I started playing, I found myself completely immersed. The gameplay is incredibly fun, and it's so easy to lose track of time because of how enjoyable it is. Whether you’re managing your colony or exploring new territories and fighting diverse enemies, every moment is engaging. The graphics are simply awesome, with detailed environments that really bring the game to life. And the difficulty? It’s perfectly balanced. There’s just the right amount of challenge, making it accessible for casual players while still offering enough depth for those who want to test their skills. If you're looking for a game that combines strategy, adventure, and a well-designed world, Cast Out Colony is a must-play! Highly recommend it!

Very good, the fun of Vampire Survivor with an extra layer of town management!

Very fun! The gameplay is quite enjoyable, from the serene town building to the chaotic arena runs. At first you use whatever abilities you have and get eaten, but as you progress and unlock new abilities, buildings, characters and the like, you’ll begin to experiment and find what works best and eventually discover how to turn your flimsy level 1 character into an enemy steamroller at the end of the run. It has a very addicting gameloop, as every run still feels different enough than the last, which gives the game a lot of replayability. The art style is completely cool! it's simple, but has that “usually weird/spooky thing is now cuddly, cute thing now looks rough” style that made Plants vs Zombies so memorable. Honestly, it was Mecha Green in the trailer what finally made me get the game, it’s so cool! The character design is remarkable, and the graphics and sounds are very cool including the arenas and abilities (you’ll definitely want to see the flashy Skill Tree abilities). As it’s still in early access, it lacks a bit in variety, as many enemies are quite similar in appearance, the music in every arena (although good) is the same, and so far, the endgame consists solely of challenging the harder difficulties, which is still fun, but feels more like a personal challenge than something that directly influences events in your colony. All in all, it’s very entertaining and definitely worth it. It’s very promising, and I’m hopeful for the full release. Best of luck to the devs!
