What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Industrial Empire is available in Early Access so players can experience the complete core loop of trading, production, and hands-on logistics. The game is fully playable, but we’ll continue to polish systems, balance the market, and add quality-of-life improvements based on player feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Cannot specify a date. We'll announce once it feels the game is concrete.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to include more forklifts, transport vehicles, warehouses and products, and polish systems.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“In this Early Access build, you can:

Buy, sell, and manipulate products on a dynamic market
Request shipments from industries and manually load/unload pallets
Operate forklifts with realistic physics and warehouse interaction
Upgrade products and industries to maximize profits
Purchase shares of rival companies for passive income
Compete against intelligent AI rivals with their own industries
Expand your operation from a small warehouse to a full industrial empire”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. We think it's not ethical to charge you with full price when the game is not there yet.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Join our Discord server and Youtube channel to interact with us, where we will collect information with polls. Additionaly, you can request whatever you want if it's not included in the poll and we will include that too!”

About This Game

Summary

Start with a small industry. Buy and sell products, request shipments from your industries and hands-on load/unload pallets. Fulfill orders and reinvest profits to expand your business. Scale your operation from a small trader to full-fledged industrial empire.

  • Purchase and upgrade industries to produce products.

  • Upgrade product production and price to maximize profit.

  • Manipulate market and control demand.

  • Purchase shares of rivals for passive income.

  • Find your own way to the top.

Hands-on Mechanics

Operate your forklift to manually load and unload pallets, move goods through your warehouse, and handle shipments yourself. Every decision matter: your hands-on actions impact your profits.

Dynamic Market

The market reacts to supply and demand. Buy low, sell high, and watch prices fluctuate based on your and rival companies' actions.

Growth and Progression

Upgrade your products and industries to increase efficiency and profit. Every upgrade opens new strategies and opportunities to dominate the market.

Replayability

Multiple paths to success: focus on trading, production, or a balanced approach. No two runs play exactly the same.

Challenge / Risk

Compete against AI rivals who will buy shares, manipulate markets, and expand their operations. Can you outsmart them and rise to the top?

Two Outcomes

Will you go bankrupt or own 100% of all of your rivals?
