Borg invasion!

Description
A Borg cube hovers over an innocent little colony ... slingers are no match for these grey-skinned monsters!

... except that the "cube" is just a façade. Take a look 'round the back, and you will find an empty cube, full of empty beds and grocer tables, left behind by the hard-working construction worker colonists who built it!

This is my entry to the recent Colony Survival / Artificial Extinction contest. The submission criterion was a screenshot, so I used a very old film-making trick of creating just the part that the audience would see! The original plan was to have a fully-functioning colony *inside* a Borg cube ... but wow that's a lot of work!

(Check out the contest entry by BoneIdle, which *is* a fully-functional colony space, and very sci-fi / extraterrestrial!)

I'm uploading this world for anyone who might want to take it from here, snap screenshots in different lighting, use this as inspiration for their own work, or whatever.

Enjoy! And check out Artificial Extinction -- another indie survival game, well-reviewed, and quite polished!

I wonder how many people these days would understand this reference. You did an amazing job recreating the Borg.

@landru729 you do know that you can edit the descriptions in the workshop right?

note: the stone brick pillars on the hillside across the lake from the tiny colony are 'vantage point' markers, that I used to remember good spots from which to take the contest screenshot; they serve no other purpose
