Created exclusively for Steam, this remastered version of Space Colony features a brand new campaign, Steam Workshop support, achievements, trading cards and Steam Cloud for saved games. Space Colony: Steam Edition is the definitive version of the sci-fi base builder for fans of the original, the builder genre and the Stronghold series, with which it shares DNA in both gameplay and an irreverent sense of humour.

As a commander of military and commercial installations on Earth, Blackwater Industries wants to see how you handle the rest of the galaxy. In Space Colony both your career and life are in the hands of an unruly crew, all looking to escape life back on Earth. Choosing from more than 100 different buildings, it’s up to you to design and build a colony that meets the needs of your crew keeping them safe, happy and alive. Half way across the galaxy with limited resources, a mega corporation looking over your shoulder and a ragtag crew expecting a paycheck, it's up to you to survive and turn a profit.

A futuristic base builder taking players across a wide range of exotic planets, Space Colony was released in 2003 on PC and Mac. With a unique cast of characters built on the personalities and humour that fans have come to expect from a Firefly game, Space Colony introduced a number of new social gameplay mechanics and character interaction to the base builder genre.

“As an indie dev self-publishing on Steam we’re in total control. That’s a daunting prospect but without Steam’s help, empowering developers like Firefly, this new release wouldn’t be happening.”, said Simon Bradbury, Creative Director of Firefly Studios. “Many of the original Space Colony team still work at Firefly and we’re all thrilled to see the game finally getting the exposure it deserves! I really hope players enjoy the new single player content and cool Steam features.”
