Space Colony Idle

2087. Earth has run out of resources, and its cities are going dark one by one. The Atlas Program launched its last capsule: humanity needs a new home across six worlds, and you are the one who builds it. You land on Mars with one solar field and a skeleton crew. A few hours later the lights never go out. BUILD AND PRODUCE Five production modules, each one paying for the next. The classic idle loop, with no dead time: tap to push output, speed it up, or close the app entirely. Production keeps running without you. SIX WORLDS Mars, Europa, Titan, Venus, Io, Callisto. Every planet brings its own hazard: dust storms, ice sheets, sulfur ash. Raise your shields, plan the drilling order, unlock adaptation tiers before the surface takes the colony apart. RECRUIT A CREW Engineers, pilots, guardians, scientists and prospectors. Assign them to modules, send them on missions, level them up. One legendary crew member changes how the whole colony runs. MISSIONS Launch scouting, mining and rescue runs from the star map. Collect planet keys and open up the next world. RESEARCH A 26-node research tree: production multipliers, automation droids, offline earnings, crew capacity. What you unlock first changes how your colony grows. LEAP AND BEYOND When the colony is complete, take the Leap: reset everything, earn Dark Matter, and come back far faster with permanent multipliers. Clear the 16-node Dark Matter tree to reach the Singularity, a final layer with no level cap. OFFLINE EARNINGS Production continues while the game is closed. Your energy is waiting when you come back. ON EVERY SCREEN Dedicated layouts for phones, tablets and open foldables. Color-blind friendly icon+name pairs, three text sizes, haptics you can switch off. CLOUD BACKUP Your progress is backed up automatically while you play. WEEKLY LEAGUE Production counts toward a weekly league score, offline earnings included. Race other colonies on the same table and collect extra rewards with the Season Pass. SKY EVENTS Now and then a black hole passes close to the colony, and the first close pass will take your flag. On Europa, Io and Callisto, Jupiter hides the sun once a day, and a shooting star crosses the sky when you unlock a letter or an achievement. Space Colony is free. Ads are optional: watching a rewarded ad is your call, and you can remove ads altogether. There are no countdowns, you lose nothing for missing a day, and progress is never for sale. Playable in English, Turkish, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish and Portuguese (Brazil).
