Can you run I Was a Teenage Exocolonist?

100%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the graphics card is the tightest fit.

I Was a Teenage Exocolonist targets a mainstream modern PC: DX10, DX11, DX12 capable. and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to Nvidia GTX 970 4GB / AMD R9 290 4GB for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Projected by resolution

1080pComfortable2.58x
1440pRuns well1.45x
4KBelow the bar0.64x

A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.
