‎My Colony is a brand new space colonization simulation and strategy game from the maker of the hit simulation games My Planet, My Land, and My Business Empire! My Colony is not and never will be one of those 'story' or 'ville' type in app purchase nickel and dime games. The aim here is for a futuri. Very realistic representation of space & star systems. Elite Dangerous uses publicly available real world star maps that we have of the Milky Way consisting of 150,000 star systems. Although in the current beta, full access to the entire galaxy is limited, in the final game, you will be able to visit any of the 400 billion stars in our galaxy. Age of Space: Colonization is an economic strategy game created by an independent Polish studio called Intermarum - a team that previously worked on a similar project called Race to Mars, which was eventually handed over to the One More Level team.

Information about the Game:
This is a space colonization game of our own solar system. The player starts on Earth and has to colonize the planets to get resources in order to expand his space empire. Here is a quick tutorial:
By keeping the right mouse button pressed and moving the mouse you can pan the camera view up, down, left & right.
By keeping the third mouse button pressed and moving horizontally you can rotate the camera.
By moving the mouse cursor to the edges of the screen you move camera forward, backward, left and right respectively.
By using the mouse wheel you can zoom in and out when in planet view or map view.
By pressing 'm' you switch to map view and by pressing 'n' you switch to normal view.
By pressing 'o' you bring up the Options Menu to save game, etc
By pressing 's' key you get the spaceship menu to easily hold track or spaceships.
By pressing 'p' key you get the planet list menu to easily find a planet or moon.
By pressing 'a' key you get the asteroid list menu to easily manage asteroid mining.
By pressing 'c' key you get the colonized planets menu to easily manage colonies.
You interact with the game by clicking on planets or moons with left mouse button. At first the only colonized planet is Earth, if you click on it you will get a panel with 8 buttons. Clicking the buttons will open the respective screen to interact with. You should start by researching the MK I solar panel, then produce it in the production menu and later activate it in the energy menu. To build items you will need resources, there are 15 resources which are mined from the planets and moons. However to mine resources you need 20MW of energy. At first you get 50 tons of the first 5 resources, you should use these to built 2 solar panels MK I which will give you 20MW. You can then start the mining of materials. Built silos to get more storage space on the planet or moon. You will also need habitats to increase your population, this is necessary to man spaceships, etc. You should then start building a probe. Launch it from the hanger menu and move it to a planet or moon. You move it by left clicking on it and then right clicking on the planet or moon you want to send it to. Once the probe is on the planet, go to research and research the probe data. You should then be able to see what resources that the planet or moon produces by left clicking on the planet or moon. You colonize the planet by building a colonizer and sending it on the planet. There are 3 types of colonizer ships. The Normal Colonizer ship can colonize most planets except those having extreme temperatures like Venus, Mercury, Pluto, etc. For these there is a special temperature resistant colonizer ship. Also Gas giants need a special pressure resistant Colonizer.
You will notice that you will be missing resources to build some structures, for these you will need to use a grazer to mine resources from the ten asteroids orbiting the sun between Mars and Jupiter orbits. You can mine resources from asteroids by deploying a grazer on an asteroid and then after mining the asteroid send it back to earth or any colonized planet.
You should also research defence items as you may face attack and if you are not well prepared your colony may be wiped out. You should have a fighter to defend the planet. You can also built bunkers where your people may take refuge in case you get attacked,etc. When there is an attack you will receive an alarm and you are given the option to go there or ignore it. If you press go there, this will take you to the planet being attacked, you should then press the defence button to start defending your planet. If you ignore it the attack will still occur and most of the population on the planet will be killed. If the population reaches zero, you will need to transfer some of the crew on any spaceships you may have in space in order to start a new population for that planet.

Thank you for choosing Star Arena.

Star Arena is a card based, 4X style, tactical and strategic game of competitive space colonization, with an addicting blend of resource management and card play, as well as game parameter creation.

Every player selects one of the unique 30-card Species decks, each with distinct Leaders to choose from that will guide their species to victory.

Using the SET deck, a 61 card mix of individual Systems, Events, and Treaties, players attempt to take control of a newly discovered and developing Known Quadrant, which the players create as the game progresses.

There are innumerable paths to Victory in the Star Arena.

With only eight turns, and a six phase per turn structure, will you be victorious against your alien opponents by showing superiority through Expansion? Perhaps by holding sway in Economics, Diplomacy, or Reserves? Or can you achieve mastery of the Star Arena using Culture, Industry, Military, Technology, and Tradition achievements?

Always changing, compellingly challenging, and ever competitive, the Star Arena will call you back, time and time again.
