About This Game

Mine, refine, automate, and customize your falling sand factory for extreme efficiency.

Every machine placed is part of the simulation - build your factory block by block, delete blocks to make new paths, and architect the factory of your dreams, piece by piece.

Lots of patterns and machines to unlock.

Utilize and upgrade your jetpack, vacuum gun and mining gun to explore the world and harvest its resources.

Complex production chains with machines for grinding, burning, freezing, and more as you turn simple materials into profitable ones.

Sandbox mode with a customizable random map generator - the engine is efficient enough to support very huge maps!
