Cast Out Colony

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!

Really fun survivorlike with a fun / chill colony building mechanic. I played it for 4 hours straight on accident ...

fun game similar to vamp survivors made by only 3 people although lacking a bit in content, I'm sure more will be added in the coming updates

It's a nice Arena shooter with cute bugs.

I'm not an expert in these kind of "number go up" games, but this one is pretty solid. I think the UI could've used more polish, and I really wish there were variety in the soundtrack, but otherwise it's mechanically solid and the bug designs are really pleasing and clever.

Bullet heaven and town-builder lovers can unite in enjoying Cast Out Colony. I had never played a bullet heaven game before, and had relatively limited town-builder experience; neither of those facts were a barrier to learning and enjoying Cast Out Colony. The characters are fun and distinct, the abilities vary dramatically, and my sandbox itch is scratched when I build out my colony. The roguelite aspect and cast of characters work together to keep the gameplay from feeling repetitive, and seeing my novice skill improve has been immensely satisfying. I would challenge you to find a developer that is more involved in their community or listens to feedback better, and the artists ensure that it's never boring to look at. If you're even just thinking about it, I promise that you won't regret giving it a chance (and gifting it to someone you think would enjoy it, too!).

Petit versus like qui mérite une certaine attention. Il regroupe pas mal de mécanique que l'on retrouve dans les meilleurs du genre même s'il demande d'être plus étoffé : - amélioration des stats par la construction d'un village (on est pas au niveau de cult of the lamb) - skills déblocables par "défis" - Fusion de compétences - Hordes d'ennemis - niveau de difficultés croissant demandant un vrai défis sur les 2 derniers - Graphisme mignons et jolie le jeu est encore en alpha (commun XD) donc j'imagine que des features vont être rajoutés pour palier à certains manques : - Event carte (style Army of ruin) - Intéractions supplémentaires village avec une utilité secondaire des décos (Bonus supplémentaire, effet secondaire...) - Pas d'effet secondaire quand on essaye de faire un jolie village, on peut aligner les objets à la rache et ça marche pareille (je me répéte mais cult of the lamb est un exemple sur ce point) - attaque synchronisé avec les compagnons de combats (personnalisation de leurs skills ?) - Animation des boss plus spectaculaire - Musique épique - plus de persos et plus de maps (c'est prévu il me semble) - pas de possibilité de reroll lorsqu'on achête des niveaux aux villages, on subit le tirage au sort donc j'évite...snif ! - Quasi inutilité des sous après avoir acheter l'ensemble des compétences au village... Un petit plus qui serait appréciable : pouvoir dasher sur la carte de la colonie, listing des habitants souhaitant donner des bonus C'est un bon petit jeu qui manque un peu de pêche par moment au début, mais c'est un excellent rapport qualité prix, suivis par les developpeurs et il peut devenir un must to have
