Welcome to "A Colony's Abyss". This simple prototype game was made by myself in 72 hours. The goal is to reach the planet assigned for your colony ship, but there's a problem. Things have been going downhill and when you're woken up from your pod to take your shift as the ship's Captain, you learn that you may not have enough resources to get there. It's up to you to manage your ship and make the decisions to make sure you get there. Don't run out of power, don't let morale sink too low and don't let everyone die.

Simple, but nice. Some good texts. A lot of guesswork though.

Kinda repetitive at times when I played I got the same couple encounters in each system I visited, neat concept though :)

Yeah, I left the events towards the ending hours and only wrote a few in a bit of a rush. I wanted a lot more of them, but time was of the essence :P

Yeah, I didn't have time to put in place my idea to avoid that. I'm glad you liked the writing though :D
