What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“For Cast Out Colony to become the best version it can be is with the help of the community. While in Early Access we can continue to develop Cast Out Colony while making sure, with the community's help, we are heading in the right direction.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The full version of the game is planned to be released in the Fall of 2024. We will be regularly updating the Early Access version of the game up until it's Full Release.”

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

“Although Early Access has hours of enjoyment, the Full Release will have even more to offer! Our roadmap includes more characters, companions, arenas, skill, and much more! We are very excited to show what we have planned and are not afraid to pivot if the community is asking for something specific!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access has a lot to offer! Multiple unique characters, 55+ skills, arenas with high replay value, and a large plot of land to grow a colony!”

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

“At this time, the plan is to increase the game's price after Early Access. We wanted to charge less for the game's time in Early Access as a "Thank You!" to players that took a chance on us and helped us as we continued our development.”

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

“Absolutely! Our game wouldn't be what it is without the community! We consistently watch let's plays and pop into the chat for those streaming Cast Out Colony. We encourage players to join our Discord and let us know what they think about our game!”

About This Game


Cast Out Colony has been described by its players as a blend of Animal Crossing, Cult of the Lamb, and Vampire Survivors. It fuses roguelite gameplay, bullet-heaven action, and intricate town-building components to craft an entirely distinctive experience, redefining the survival genre. The meta-progression is located within the colony itself. The larger you grow your colony, the higher your character's stats become.



    Multiple playable characters

    Choose from a variety of adorable arthropods and not-so-creepy crawlies, each with their own unique skills and characteristics.

    Bullet Heaven combat

    Choose from a variety of OVER 50 active and passive skills as you level up and fight your way through the never-ending hordes of beasties and baddies. Stick with your favorites, experiment with something new, or upgrade them to unleash your might; either way, no two runs will ever be quite the same!

    Build your colony

    Build your own colony and increase its inhabitants, some of which will help you in your survival! Growing your colony provides bonuses, both permanent and temporary, meaning the stronger you build your colony, the stronger your character can become.
