Sand worm? MELANGE! THE SPICE MUST FLOW!
BlackHoleEyes The ascendency of House Harkonnen! Bitch'n! XD
Just don't let anyone touch your heartplug.
SHAI-HULUD!
I was thinking the same.
Sandworms, you hate'em right? I hate 'em myself. - Beetlejuice
This actually looks like a futuristic Tropico, honestly it seems pretty good
Can I expect a part 2? This is really interesting.
Don't think this was designed to do a play through. Just showing off a new game.
not even 200 people in the colony
already crimes ?
seriously ?
i guess someone did not do very good background checks
I agree. With a population that small it seems unlikely crime would be a serious issue. Then again, if ~7 new people showed up every week it's possible there were a couple bad eggs.
Could be a penal colony. :o
a priest from my country, Argentina, lived in a colony with 10 persons, he was killed and nobody knows who did it
+Rubi Wiliams well someone does
Oh a colony builder that is exactly like all other colony builders ever made? I can't contain myself!
Would love for you to continue with this game!
I love the concept - But those tunnel roads look awful once you start piling up buildings. 3-4 way connections on every single tile, and no traffic showing when you're zoomed out.
Yeah, every tile is an intersection.
i feel like banished just does this genre better.
See now, my copy of banished had huge bugs... i never got to really enjoy it.
This is basically Tropico with less Penultimo and more space thingy!!
This is gonna be good.... I hope......
I was just thinking how amazing it would be to have a military aspect to the game,with spehss mareens and orbital death rays and such.
SergeiAndropov and the rebel would be space pirate and there is special 'natural disaster' which is that sand worm gone rampage
it will be look like litterally 'Tropico in space', but i hope there is more new mechanic that make this more like 'Tropico in space upgraded big time'
El Presidente thought it would be best to leave his home and go expand his influence among the stars
It's like if Tropico and Planetbase had a baby. This is what would come out. Can't wait for it.
More of this please! Miss watching Quill play a colony building game.
Looks like a fun game. I like your commentary, quality of video/explanation and the volume you're using. You've got another sub.
The UI is identical to the one from Cities:Skylines.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought so.
Skylines UI is one of the simplest, very similar to other older games too.
it's because Cities:skylines was made in unity. this is probably made in unity too.
I thought so, too! I wondered whether it had been made by the same developer, but apparently not. Still, looks like a good game.
naw; aven colony was made in ue4
I really like that the devs clearly said that releasing a game on steam for beta testing is a bad idea, and are limiting the beta testing sales to people who actually put 2 minutes of research into the game. Can't wait for the game to come out :D
Always interested in these let's try videos. Thanks for all the great content Quill!
9:00 oh that's a cool looking sand worm!
Rebuilding tunnels looks like such a fun game feature.
Wow.. this is like a mix between Anno and Tropico. Looks really fun.
The game kind of reminds me of Anno series
Quill18, my daily source of finding new fun games
I'm just waiting for El Presidente to show up ! :P And penaultimo.
Well, Tropico did have the space program. Maybe this game is set 100 years later, as brave Tropican explorers, scientists, and crime bosses take their first steps into the greater galaxy
If that was true the colonist would have already taken over the city because for some random reason they have a problem with you.
UI looks easy to read, so that's nice. Buildings look kind of like Space Colony, witch is a dam good game.
I miss Outpost 2. This looks nice, but Outpost 2 was great.
That giant sand worm is giving me flashbacks to multiplayer games of Civ: BE.
I hope @Quill18 will make more videos of this game. I really enjoyed it =)
A lot of colony building games lately. I suspect that next step will be adding some obstacles to your colony, than adding enemies, than multiplayer and... we will finish with RTS games :D I feel like the 90ties :D
It's sim city circa 1989, base building games are my favourite genre but waiting for them I am only going to live for so long.
So... the tv show "the 100" meets the 90's game M.A.X., combined with some Sim City and a bit of Tropico and Democracy, a lot of Offworld Trading Company...
I'm in!!!
That game looks interessting. Devs said they try to reales in early 2017. There will be no early acces on steam. But its wourth to keep an eye on this one!
Great play through!
I'm wondering how much longer this type of game is going to be regurgitated. Let's face it, there's enough of them to fill a dump truck and sadly many of them are identical in it's aims. Basically the only thing happening is they're getting prettier. I must admit I love them and will buy one when it's been around long enough for the bugs to have buggered off.
Isn't it time someone took a stand and introduced something different. Keep the keeping the little people happy, but add something to break the monotony. Give us a spaceship and allow us to roam the planets and find one we can settle on, then when we need timber and our colony doesn't have access to it, we jump in a ship and go searching for it, set up another out station and freight the timber back home. Add an employment factor where you have to interview applicants to run your timber business off planet. OK maybe too much, but something, anything to make it's mark.
Has anyone thought of writing a game like this which allows the player to add extras like the above and add them to the main game. I'm sure there are hundreds of options others can up with. What say you ?
Mankinds first colony outside solar system and I can build recruitement buildings and trade posts? The plot is interesting, but demands a more harch survival scenario in my oppinion.
I just got a two minute long ad that I couldn't skip.Sleepless better be incredible.
I got one (from something from Disney, I believe it was Doctor Strange) that, not only could I not skip (spoiling the movie for me, so now I want to watch it even less), but they placed a rectangular annotation of the same dimensions and in the same place where the skip button would be, which redirected you to a place to buy tickets.
I am totally fine with ads, but ads that try to scam me? Hell no, you go to hell, Doctor Strange. Your movie doesn't even look interesting.
>8-/
The worse ad I've had was a 5 minute ad, I just hit the refresh button in the browser to skip the ad for a better 1
Quickly coming up to release, 7/25! Already pre-ordered :)
Sci-fi is my favourite Genre! Nice Video
Already thinking of crafting or better yet, bio-engineering a giant robin to eat that Sandworm.
Meh. I'm fine with a play through. You and colony games are such a good match.
Game seems alright, I don't like how buildings connect to roads tho, just make them with one point of connection with the possibility of turning.
this kinda reminds me of that other spacy colony building game that quill used to play...
Had enough of the barley? OK, here's broccoli. Geeze you hate those colonists.
I'm getting a very big Tropico in space vibe from this. At least it will be easier to shove those pesky rebels to the sand worm.
I want a part 2 I love these types on games!
This game looks really nice, hope it is as good.
I would really love to see you do a let's play of this
Looks like Outpost :) I loved that game.
This game looks very typical of the last few planet colonization games that just came out. It looks good. but it has nothing special and the long term gameplay will fall short. Too many game developers are trying to copy the same game setup and its just boring when it has good early game content but nothing for the mid or late game.Prehaps its time the developers actually created something new and amazing., not copy what other ones made the month before
What are these games you mentioned? I've played Rimworld, and hoping to play others.
Seems very similar to Planetbase with slight variations to structures but gameplay is very similar.
thats what i was thinking, how does this compare to planetbase?
Like Anno
It looks like it has a lot more advanced options than Planetbase.
Heck, I've been looking for a game like this!
very good voice and diction...fun to follow along.
This looks like a more advanced version of Outpost 2. I'll have to try it out.
Might actually buy this game, it looks really cool! :)
REMOVE THE FOOD RATIONING PLEASE!! I AM GETTING HUNGRY JUST BY THINKING ABOUT IT!!!! :(
Classic Quill, watching some of his Big Pharma videos other day and some of the things he does in those is cringe worthy.
yea it was frustrating that he was going on that food was good and he never turned of rationing
Finally another lets try
This looks like Tropico... IN SPACE!!!!
It looks like a much more developed version of Planetbase. Very awesome!
Bliss? Sounds a lot like Soma...
I imagine it's supposed to
They had bliss in some recent sci-fi shows.
Is that the same name from the Margaret Atwood series Oryx and Crake?
Don't mind me, was just checking to see if this game was "OutPost 3" worthy. It is not. I will love a spiritual sequel to OutPost 2.
I really enjoyed Planetbase after being introduced to it here, but it was sorta minimal and didn't really go anywhere beyond the basics. Does this one develop any further, or is it just the same "keep building more of these basic buildings over and over" ?
I LOVE THIS GAME!
Maybe not connecting geothermal plants to the rest of the colony would help with air quality? Or are the other game mechanics to worry about?
I don't think you can leave buildings disconnected, because they all require workers, and the workers need to go through tunnels to reach them. A good mixture of intake fans and air filters spread out over the whole complex seems like the best plan
This is literally the fourth "early alpha" space colony I've seen in the last week. I'm getting sick of it. Although this one looks like it's the best out of all of them, I may give it a try.
I don't know why, but it seems there's something missing in the survival aspect of the game. I'm guessing it's from typical survival games you start out with nothing, which here you need a starting kit due to the harsh environment, unlike earth.
looks interesting, maybe I'll give it a try
Ah, Sips and Quill. Filling my subscription needs for this genre :D
(Less dickripping here tho!)
love this game
Planetbase with a different look O.O
This is basically a Sci-Fi Tropico.
Please do more of this game most (if not all) of the other commentators that do this game aren't as good as you.
simcity 2013's UI has become a standard
How does the game work if you are not online, do you run into a risk factor of low production or even damage ?
Who like this game can also try Planetbase. Its 95% like this game. Or Rimworld. Its more complex.
So this is a mix between Tropico and Planet Base.
May I suggest Rimworld. You will not believe the drama in that game.
when will any of these games EVER come out of pre-release?
Updated version of Utopia from NES
"Purchasing this beta does buy the full game upon release via itch.io, but please be aware that it does not grant a Steam key."
Get it on the steam sale then? fuck it.
one thing, how is the rice surviving the un inhabitable air?
will this game come to steam?
This is like Anno 2205 Colony Edition. Please tell me that you don't have to subscribe to another site to play it?
Woah, the building menu looks like Cities: Skylines.
OMG FINALLY i is playing this game i really hope he makes a serious out of this.
I liked this game for a second but then i saw the dev page and thought it was bull shit, it was a 25$ game for a beta, and you don't get a steam key when released but an itch.io release version.Plus the dev basicly threatens "hey, btw its gonna cost more on release." This is why i torrent games.
Yes it is important to remember that since game of thrones winter is no longer aproaching it is now coming.
This looks interesting, any information about the release day? I hope it'd be as complicated as anno 2070, or even close to it :D
On their website it states that the full game release will be in early 2017, so anywhere from now to around April or May the game will be released on Steam or itch.io. However you can still play the beta right now if you go to their website and pay $25.
is this game available on steam?
This game is based on PlanetBase game ideas but looks a wee better than PlanetBase.
Nice game
Definetly wurth a let's play
9:03
SHAI HULUD! SHAI HULUD HAS COME
awesome the stellaris 2.0 !!
They get unhappy about rationing, but I bet they will be even more unhappy when they starve!
El Presidente goes to another planet! ))
Guys, does anybody know how to access locations of interest from overworld map?
variation on "Planet Base".
I'll give them credit, it's a good game. I just needs rebalancing. Yeah I know it's in beta and they are working on it. Sick of chasing power requirements....
I mean if they are serious about making this throw it up for prerelease on steam
I think this looks interesting.
Quill really enjoy yours Lets Try, can you make a video of Life is Feudal: Forest Village? thanks for all the hours of fun!
to be honest (in my opinion) this game seems slightly more entertaining than Civ6
part2 pleaseee
I think it will lack that amount of replay value though.
Nobody likes broccoli. Even space broccoli. My world will be broccoli free.
Is this single player or do you need to join a group like a league ?
i love this game :)
will this game be available on steam ?
Will we see this game on steam?
