Roadmap

About This Game

Factory Planner is a card-based strategy and simulation game where your goal is to build your own factory from scratch by combining different types of cards, managing resources, and optimizing production lines. Each card plays a specific role: gather materials, produce goods, distribute power, or boost efficiency. With the right planning, combinations, and engineers, your factory can become an industrial powerhouse!



The game offers more than just production—it delivers a deep sandbox experience that gives players the freedom to create, experiment, and progress in their own unique way. Whether you want to build the most efficient automation system or explore creative factory layouts, every decision you make will shape the future of your industry.

Key Features:

Card-Based Building System

Use Facility, Organization, Engineer, and Resource cards to create fully functional production chains. Each card has unique input/output nodes and behavior, requiring smart strategy and placement.

Connection and Production Lines

Manage solid, liquid, and power connections to ensure a smooth flow. A single wrong connection can halt your entire system. Connections snap in 90° angles, can be broken or rearranged, and dynamically adjust to your setup.

Engineer Assignment & Upgrades

Engineer cards can be assigned to production and storage units to boost efficiency, unlock new recipes, or reduce energy consumption. Assignments take effect after the current production cycle, encouraging careful planning.

Energy Management System

Power is at the heart of your factory. Use thermal generators and distribute energy to machines. If power demands exceed supply, systems shut down and the grid alerts you. Use splitters and mergers to control power flow effectively.

Storage & Material Transfer Logic

Storage units have limits. If production outputs aren't properly connected, systems jam. Excess materials will halt collection. Maintaining transfer speed and flow balance is key to a smooth operation.

Crafting & Card Upgrading

Craft new cards or upgrade existing ones to improve your capabilities. As you progress, unlock more complex cards to scale your factory into a highly advanced industrial hub.

Real-Time Stats & Alert Panels

Keep track of everything: active cards, working engineers, Facredit balance, and more. The alert system notifies you instantly about issues like full storage, missing materials, or power failures and helps you react fast.

Progress Through Resource Eras

Start with basic materials like wood and iron, then unlock more advanced resources like sulfur and uranium. Eventually, you'll build high-tech factories powered by nuclear energy.

Factory Planner challenges you to think, plan, and produce. Build seamless production chains, manage your resources wisely, and grow your humble workshop into a massive industrial empire.

Keep the lines moving. Let the systems flow. Make your factory legendary.
