Players Like...

❤ Sculpt an Infinite Voxel Landscape

Players can explore and sculpt a vibrant, procedurally generated voxel world. With each new game, the terrain and resource distribution randomize, offering a fresh experience. The malleable voxel environment enables players to shape the landscape block by block, from dense jungles to towering mountain ranges.

❤ Automate Complex Production Facilities

The gameplay centers around constructing and optimizing automated production facilities. Players start by manually extracting and processing resources, then unlock the ability to automate these tasks using conveyor belts, pipes, and various machinery. The game encourages strategic factory layout, as players must balance inputs and outputs to maximize efficiency and productivity. As the factory grows, players research advanced technologies to meet the demands of their expanding production lines.

❤ Build Towering, Multilayered Factories

Unlike many 2D factory builders, this game allows players to construct vertically integrated facilities. Freight elevators and other vertical transport solutions enable the creation of intricate, 3D production complexes that stretch from deep underground to the skies above, taking full advantage of the fully destructible terrain.

❤ Collaborate in Cooperative Multiplayer

The game supports cooperative multiplayer, allowing players to work together to build and manage shared factories. The flexible save system facilitates this, enabling players to seamlessly transition hosting duties or continue a joint project independently. This cooperative gameplay encourages players to devise creative solutions to complex logistical challenges.

❤ Customize and Personalize Your Creation

Beyond the core factory-building mechanics, the game offers a variety of customization options. Players can unlock decorative items and new color schemes to integrate their production facilities into the surrounding environment, transforming them into unique works of industrial art.

❤ Streamlined Resource Management

The game simplifies certain resource management aspects compared to similar titles. For example, it eliminates the need to convert biomass from various sources, allowing players to directly use harvested materials as fuel. Additionally, the use of modular power platforms instead of traditional power poles streamlines the process of establishing a stable power grid.

❤ Smooth Progression and Accessibility

Many players praise the game's smooth progression and accessibility, especially in the early stages. Comprehensive tutorials and a quest system guide players through the introductory mechanics and technologies at a comfortable pace. Combined with the game's relaxed tone and lack of hostile threats, this creates a welcoming environment for both seasoned factory-building enthusiasts and newcomers to the genre.
