What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“One Lonely Outpost is a very expansive game with a lot of content planned for it. While the early access version has plenty for players to do, we would like to continue getting feedback so we can develop these features alongside the community.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate the game will be in early access for up to 12 months. Although that seems like a long time, we will be adding content on a consistent basis and will continue to evaluate until we feel the game is ‘feature complete.’”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will include more new content as well as expanded features of what is currently available. Players can expect things such as livestock, new colonists, and the thrill of romancing colony members down the line. Of course there will also be many new types of wildlife, fish, insects, crops, and quests by the time the game leaves early access as well. We’ve got a ton of cool things in store for the game so there is a lot to look forward to!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the game is completely playable and allows you to go through the entire first act of the storyline. This means you can set up your outpost, farm some delicious - and strange - crops, engage with settling colonists, make surprising discoveries, and transform the barren rock you landed on into a vibrant place to call home. The game currently offers many hours of gameplay and replayability that will only get expanded throughout development.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game may increase in price as we add more features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Player feedback is a large part of what has helped One Lonely Outpost reach where it is today. We will continue to collect feedback from players - primarily through our Discord - so we can make One Lonely Outpost into the best game it can possibly be!”

About This Game





You're the first pioneer to hit the surface of a barren, alien world - a desolate expanse as far as the eye can see. Your job is simple: Take your Space-RV, power up your multipurpose tech gauntlet, and use whatever seeds found in the cargo to start a new life on this world. Over time, you'll make the planet life-sustaining for yourself and dozens of future colonists. But until then, it's going to be one lonely outpost...



  • Plan your colonist’s farming adventures. Will you explore? Plant? Craft? FIsh? Build a close-knit community? Or all of them at once?
  • Fill out the Omninac by experiencing life on the new planet. Categorize crops, minerals, seasons, animals, and more!
  • Terraform the desert with a trusty robotic pet. Fertilize the ground, secure water sources, and make the air breathable.
  • Farm, mine, explore, and carve out a habitat for humanity.





  • Build your colony from the ground up. Your loneliness will be over once you can attract some colonists - but that is just the beginning!
  • Discover a robust menu of meals to cook - you can't explore a new world on an empty stomach!
  • A plethora of fish and bugs also inhabit the planet - go uncover them to fill out your collection!





  • Usher in a new dawn for humanity, building a genuine off-world utopia for your colonists.
  • Connect with your newfound community, cultivate relationships, and who knows, maybe even find love among the pioneers?
  • And just as important as the future, delve into the past of the old world. Just what lies hidden beneath this ancient planet's surface...?
