First Colony

First Colony is a turn-based 4X strategy game inspired by classic colony-building games. Establish a foothold on a newly discovered continent, explore the wilderness, build settlements, gather resources, and defend your people against hostile barbarians and dangerous wildlife. Unlike traditional colony-building games, production is not confined to settlement screens. All production sites are built directly on the world map, creating a growing network of settlements that expands across the frontier. Features - Explore a large continent covered by fog of war. - Found and expand settlements across a hex-based world map. - Build production settlements directly on the map and develop regional economies. - Gather resources and train new units. - Upgrade settlements into more productive and specialized forms. - Hunt wildlife for food and survival. - Defend your colony against barbarian raids. - Discover strategic terrain and resource opportunities. - Collect various victory points to win. A Solo Developer Project First Colony was developed primarily during nights and weekends over more than six years by a solo developer. Currently, it represents a focused vertical slice of a much larger dream project and aims to capture the spirit of classic 4X strategy games while introducing a unique approach to settlement expansion.
