Launch of my multi-planetary automation game Factor Y

86 points i3ck

I finally launched my automation game Factor Y and it's no longer in early access.

It's a multi-planetary automation game that plays similar to an RTS game since there's no player model.

It has a unique module system that makes it possible to generate custom buildings blocks from smaller factories.

It's been in development for nearly 4 years now and I've been working on it in my spare time.

I wrote a very detailed devlog entry about its launch and development progress:

https://buckmartin.de/factor-y/2024-08-08-launch.html

The devlog itself also documents most features since the first commit https://buckmartin.de/factor-y.html .

The game is implemented in 100% Rust.

It's available on Steam and currently on sale https://store.steampowered.com/app/2220850/Factor\_Y/ .

Feedback is very much appreciated and feel free to AMA.

Also note that there's a free demo that is equal to the full game, only lacking the ability to load savegames.
