A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

A demo of the material production and automation system for a larger project. Let me know if you notice any bugs or have any ideas for the two unimplemented building types. There's not really an objective, it's just for messing around with the system and making factories.

BTW if a processor isn't working, you probably forgot to give it coal as fuel. Everything except crystal to quartz requires fuel.

I dislike game engines, so I didn't use one. Just SDL2 and raw c++.

Enjoy!

Install instructions

Unzip the .zip file and run the Factory Demo file. It will have a version number in the name.

WINDOWS: the game file is a .exe file. No additional setup is necessary.

LINUX: you may have to mark the game file "Executable as Program" or similar before running it. Open the file's "properties" and click on the slider that says "executable as program". Then run the file as a program. Your system may look slightly different from mine.

It has come to my attention that the “Help Menu” displays filler text instead of the link to my itch profile. I think it’s kinda funny, so I won’t be fixing it until the next release.

The correct text isn’t a hyperlink anyways, so it’s not really worth having included in the first place. I don’t know why I put it there, to be honest.

There is currently a bug in the game where all materials are worth 3 points and advancement after aluminum is essentially pointless… I will be releasing a version 1.1 shortly.

Edit: Fixed! Version 1.1 is now available for download!
