It introduces high resolution support to the game that allows the player to zoom out. Space Colony HD is a HD (high definition) version of the 2003 game Space Colony. Once you have stripped the planet bare, you will move on again, and start the process over again. In individual missions, you will have to compete against rival corporations or aliens for domination of the planet you are exploiting. There are a number of game modes, Career Mode, Galaxy Mode, Sandbox Mode, and you can play user-created maps. Each colonist has personal likes and dislikes, some are social, others will pick fights you have to achieve a balance. There are around twenty colonists which will populate your base in one mission or another. What makes this game distinct is that each colonist has a unique personality. The colonists have a shift cycle, how long they will work is directly affected by how happy they are, so it pays to have a good base. You will have to set up resource harvesting, resource processing, recreation facilities, tourist facilities, military installations, and such to keep your colonists happy/productive, defend the base, and make money. Space Colony is both a strategy game and a personality management simulation it can be described as Stronghold and The Sims combined, put in space. This task is complicated by the fact that the colonists are all rejects from society, and will cause problems of one sort or another. You must manage both the base and the personnel which inhabit and run this base. You are the employee of Blackwater Industries ("Putting profit before people.") given the task of running a series of off-world colonies.

In the future, mankind expands through the galaxy, and corporations race to exploit every planet they can.
