Hello Everyone,

I'm LBmaster, originally starting my Gamedev journey about 5 Years ago creating DayZ Mods and now I'm working on my first own game. I really enjoyed playing game like Factory, Satisfactory, Stardew Valley, Terraria, Minecraft and many more, which is why I'm trying to create my own factory game.

Where I'm at

I've started learning Godot about 2 months ago and this is where the prototype of the game currently is at:

- A lot of Factorio and other placeholder assets ^^

- Working Belts with different Items per minute

- Some basic crafting machines

- Machine Frames (required for these crafting machines)

- Background tiles needed for placing anything on them

- Save and Load system

What is planned

This is still a very early prototype and is missing a lot of functionality. Here is a quick overview of all the things I want to implement with a short description:

- Setting up the Steam Page (when I have a bit more to show and I have a (final) name for the game)

- Heat System (You have to manage Machines overheating / cooling down materials like molten iron into a solid cooled down form)

- Power System (You need to generate Power from various different power sources for your factory)

- Everything is in space, so some systems work different than you would expect

- Collecting Materials (You send small mining ships to asteroids to collect the materials and feed these miners with energy from your main factory using a laser, that can be upgraded for more power and more asteroids at the same time)

- All kinds for different Materials (further away asteroids will also give higher tier materials and also more, all resources are finite)

- A Research system (but without research packs you need to craft. You directly invest materials into the research)

- All kinds of upgrade items (which can be put into the machine frames to enhance the machines inside like gears to improve crafting speed and more)

How am I going to do that?

Some of you might have already guessed it, I would appreciate any feedback I can get from your factory game players out there (and all the others too of course).

What I am most interested at the moment would be if you understand my vision of the game and if you think these (new) systems would make for a good factory game.

Also I am looking for someone, who can help me with some graphics. I don't really have any set graphics style I want to use for the game, so If you are interested in helping me out or you know someone, who can help me out, let me know. I definitely have some money to spend on assets, as I'm not really good at creating some nice visuals.

Can I play it already?

Yes, I've compiled a working Windows Version for you to download and to check out the game yourself, so give it a try and see what you can already create with this very first alpha Version 0.0.2 ^^

Or play it here in your browser on Itch.io

Thanks to everyone helping out getting my first game done!
