the leap into 3D was a period of rapid change for the medium: polygons, CD-ROM storage and analogue control were rewriting what games looked and felt like. Placing Colony in that timeline shows where it sat as the industry evolved.

The value of a record like this is context: the leap into 3D produced far more games than the handful everyone remembers, and polygons, CD-ROM storage and analogue control were rewriting what games looked and felt like. An archive earns its keep by preserving the long tail, not just the hits.
