Roadmap This roadmap outlines our future plans for the game, including both some planned features and ideas. Please note that features mentioned here are not guaranteed and may change. About the Game FOUNDRY is a first-person (first-robot?) factory builder with complete creative freedom set in a procedurally generated and infinite voxel world. Land on an unexplored planet and design a giant automated robot production facility under the watchful direction of your AI friend, Carl. Navigate the complexities of interstellar trade and sell your products through interplanetary trade networks to reach your final goal: galactic industrial domination. Progress from manual resource extraction to a fully automated and perfectly optimized factory. Construct towering machinery and snaking networks of conveyor belts and pipes with no limits on where you build. Explore a vibrant voxel world and sculpt the landscape block by block. Research new, more advanced technologies to meet the demands of your ever-growing production lines. Personalize your creation by unlocking decorative items and new color options. Maintain a complex power system to keep your factory running at top speed. Work solo or recruit outside contractors in online or LAN co-op multiplayer. Create an enormous factory complex stretching from deep underground to the planet’s surface and the skies above. Build Anything, Anywhere Create a mechanically magnificent factory and a work of industrial art integrating your creation into the environment around you. Set up your machines far below the surface, high in the sky and everywhere in between. Grid-based construction gives you precise control over where and what you build.  Land on an unexplored planet and explore a procedurally generated sandbox. Journey through dense jungles, gigantic mountain ranges, and great plains stretching into the horizon, with even more to discover beneath the surface. Automate Everything Design intricate systems of conveyor belts, long-distance transport networks, pipes and elevators from deep underground to automate your research. Unlock more advanced, complex and faster technology to optimize your factory and maximize production. You’ll start by crafting items and harvesting resources manually but will soon find yourself setting up assembly lines piece by piece to devise a system that flows perfectly. Combine form, fit and function to create a smooth setup that effortlessly transforms raw materials into galaxy-grade robot products without you lifting a metallic finger. Optimize to Perfection Bottlenecks are your enemies. Remember to maintain a delicate balance between inputs and outputs so that productivity reaches its maximum potential, enabling you to progress through an extensive research tree. Ensure that manufacturing runs at full speed. Keep your power supply well-fed and, as your factory expands, unlock upgraded machinery, advanced power generators and new customization options that will add efficiency and a splash of color to your production lines. Work solo or collaborate in co-op and engineer creative solutions to complex logistical challenges in a vast voxel world.
