Colony Cephea: A Cosmic Horror Inspired Space Adventure

Colony Cephea, developed by DocksonWedge, is a short, experimental, top-down 2D action-adventure game that takes you on a journey through space with cosmic horror inspirations. As a cartographer, your mission is to chart routes to the first extra-galactic human colony, but you end up discovering more about the universe than you intended.

As the captain of a refurbished exploration vessel, you must navigate through a maze of jump gates using only your light and engine to reach Colony Cephea. With limited weapons at your disposal, you must collect map information to plan future routes for vessels to the nascent colony. The game can be played with keyboard and mouse, but the intended experience is with a controller.

Colony Cephea is a free-to-play game with no in-game purchases and takes roughly an hour to complete. If you’re a fan of cosmic horror and space exploration, this game is definitely worth checking out.
