About the Game

Colony X is a multiplayer space horror game. One player takes on the role of a Xeon, a creature capable of walking on any surface. The other players (2-4) play as colonists, either trying to escape or hunt down the Xeon.



In search of new settlements, the colonists left Earth, but during their journey, they faced unexpected malfunctions. Desperately needing supplies, they sought refuge in an abandoned-looking space station. However, as soon as they set foot inside, things started to go wrong. The security systems activated, and the hangar door locked behind them. There was no turning back now.

The colonists must solve the door's code and gather the necessary supplies to survive. But as they move through the dark, cold corridors, a single question lingers in their minds: "Is this station really deserted?" Strange echoes, sudden power cuts, and shadows moving in the distance suggest the station may not be as empty as it seems. Now, it’s not just a matter of gathering supplies but also surviving the unknown dangers lurking in this mysterious place.




Xeon has the ability to move on any surface. It cannot open locked doors, but it can use tunnels to access almost any location. Controlling the Xeon offers a unique gameplay experience.




If you are caught by the Xeon, it incubates you, transforming you into a newborn Xeonlet. You now fight on its side.




To escape from the Xeon, the colonists must solve the hangar door's code or enter the weapons bay. They need to be cautious of the ceiling and tunnels. The danger isn't just on the ground.




After solving the hangar code, you must suit up for a spacewalk. Be careful! If the inner door isn't closed before the outer door opens, you'll be ejected into space.




After collecting the materials needed for repairs, you'll have to spacewalk back to your main ship.
