Project POD
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Humans have deployed you on a barren planet. Your mission is to terraform the planet for your cryogenically frozen humans to live on. Collect resources, construct supporting buildings, and defend your humans against the hostile alien creatures that live below the surface.
Project POD was developed in Unity by Space Magic Games, a team of final-year students from Swinburne University. It takes inspiration from real-time strategy games and base builders, and features RTS gameplay, resource and building management, and wave-based combat.
