Demonsions: Industry PC

Craft and automate survival in a procedurally generated open world where every block can be mined. Build factories with machines crafted from different metals, connect them via conveyors for item transport, and manage power through generators, solar sources, power boxes, and battery backups. Use tools like pickaxes and pry bars to gather ores, smelt them in furnaces, and progress to harder materials while snapping structures onto a local grid. This indie strategy simulation blends block building with adventure elements in early access on PC. Players mine by hand or machine, filter outputs, and condense bases by moving ore piles. Fans of automation and crafting loops will enjoy expanding from basic tools to full production lines.

Demonsions: Industry is an open world, procedurally generated block crafting/building game. Everything can be mined. Enjoy crafting, building, and fully automating your survival in this strange world.



New in Version 0.00: Voxel mining!


All features listed here have been implemented, but may be subject to change.

Game Basics:

• Many things can be crafted that inherit properties of the material used to craft them
  
  
• Mine Ores by hand with a Pickaxe or by machine, fully automating mining, smelting, and crafting
  
• Pick up and move Ore with a Pry Bar to condense your base (your Pry Bar needs to be at least as hard as the Ore to not destroy it)
  
• Local grid-based building allows most items to snap into place
  

Basics of Factory Building:

• Machines are first crafted, then placed, some machines like Miners function differently depending on the metal used to make it
  
• Generators generate power from an energy source, including fuel and solar
  
• Power Boxes route power underground automatically to nearby machines and other Power Boxes
  
• You can use Platforms made from different metals to isolate power grids from one another
  
• Machines need enough available power to function
  
• Battery Backups can be used to store extra power being generated and supplement the grid when more power is needed
  
• Conveyors connect to a machine's ports and can either give or take items, depending on the Conveyor direction
  
• Multiple Conveyors can attach to the same port and to each other, allowing for splitting and merging functionality
  
• Storage Racks hold items from Conveyors and can output items as well
  
• Filters can be attached to machine ports to only output certain items

Getting Started and Progression:

• A Pickaxe is made by first crafting a Pickaxe Head and a Tool Handle. Press E or (Back) to open the Crafting Menu
  
• Click on an item/icon in the Crafting Menu to see its recipe
  
• Click and drop inventory items into your hotbar to rearrange them
  
• You can find materials to make a basic Pickaxe laying on the ground. Press F or (X) to pick them up
  
• When night falls you'll need to craft a Bed, or wait it out using the flashlight in your Scanner to see
  
• Beds require Cotton, found on plants growing near water
  
• The terrain can be mined for Stone, Dirt, and Sand
  
• Once you have a Pickaxe, you can try to find Ores laying around (some Ores are found underground!)
  
• Use the Scanner to determine an Ore's hardness and type
  
• Harder Ores require harder Pickaxes to mine efficiently (same applies to Miner machines)
  
• If you encounter a Coppie (jumpy treasure chest) he's probably just hungry
  
  
• Once you smelt the Ore Piles in a Furnace, you can set about making new tools, machines, or a base in which to settle down
  
• A basic automatic mining/smelting setup will need a Generator, Power Box, Miner, Smelter, Storage, and some Conveyors

Have fun playing!
