PayPalA bit of gaming history returns to modern platforms with the release of Exodus: The Colonization of Space now available on Steam. Originally released all the way back in 1997 for Acorn RISC OS computers (an old British company), a name I've not heard in a long time - I'm sure we had an Acorn computer in my original primary school class.
Created by then-developer Artex Software as their first commcerial game, the founders of it would go onto creating Deck13, a name more of you may be familiar with as the developers of The Surge and Lords of the Fallen. Artex have now returned too but as a publisher and Exodus: The Colonization of Space is just a little retro treat.

From the press details:
The pixely 256-color game focuses on founding a new civilization in space after earth was abandoned. The players colonize planets, deal with (or fight against) up to 14 computer opponents. They build up the surface of their planets, make laws for their people, trade with neighboring planets and fend off mean space pirates. There are turn-based battles, a science tree, and endless possibilities to build a pixel galaxy… or fail trying.
Exodus is a true retro game but has been brought into the 21st century with over 60 gameplay improvements and features like autosave and keyboard shortcuts. As it was originally released on the Acorn Archimedes, few retro gamers have ever played this little gem… Now is your chance!
The re-release arrives with Native Linux support too.
