About the 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.
