News Liste Colony Survival

What are we looking for?

• Worlds showcasing many of the features in the game, especially newer features like the rails, roofs, gliders, outposts, traps etcetera
• Houses for colonists to work/sleep in
• Visually appealing colonies that form a coherent whole, like a village, castle or city.
• Functionality of what's built - it should be actively used by colonists and serve a purpose beyond the visual
• Visible infrastructure between colonies and outposts, with rails / paths / bridges / gliders
• Colonies that do "the whole game"; they should be approximately self-sufficient in the way it ends up when you naturally play the game, they should look "lived in".
• Worlds that have depth, that you can get lost in, with outposts in the distance and plenty of small streets and alleys

What are we not looking for?

• Huge fields of tightly packed beds
• Giant warehouses
• "Car park farming"
• Worlds that look like they were built with cheats, where it is obvious that the player always used the flight-cheat to move between colonies, that many resources appeared without the required production facilities
• Worlds visibly using mods
• Purely decorative builds

The rules

• Upload your world to the Steam Workshop from Colony Survival (Main Menu > Mod Manager > Create Item)
• Navigate towards the Colony Survival Workshop in Steam, acces "Your Workshop Files" and click on the world you just uploaded
• Put “2024 Builder’s Contest” at the start of the description
• Add at least one screenshot to showcase your colony
• Fully publish your world to the Steam Workshop
• Do this before January the 5th 2024, 8AM Amsterdam time
• It’s fine to use worlds that you’ve started before the start of the contest
• It should be a world of your own creation, you’re not allowed to download a stranger’s world and upload that
• You’re allowed to upload multiple worlds
• We operate according to the spirit of the rules, not the letter of the rules. We might adjust the rules to better fit the goals of the contest.
