You land on a frozen planet in a tiny rocket with a robot inside. Harvest and combine materials to discover new ones. Use visual programming to make the robot do the tiresome work for you. Slowly build a gang of self-sustaining robot workers and watch them terraform the planet.


This craft automation game brings you the most tempting features:
You land on a frozen planet with an important mission: to make it habitable. To do that, you’d need to harvest resources, craft tools, burn fires, melt the ice, plant trees and produce oxygen. Estimated time for the task: over 9000 years.

Enter CraftoMate! They can be scripted with visual programming to perform all kinds of tasks. More importantly, they can be assembled and upgraded with surrounding materials.

Even more importantly: you can program them to harvest and craft those materials and eventually become a sustainable workforce, capable of terraforming the entire planet. Just don’t forget to feed them once in a while… Though you can program them to do it themselves, too.
You can generate a new planet, or exchange your favorite ones with friends — just share the generation seed. The generator randomly changes the placement of resources, buildings, and volcanoes. This makes each playthrough on the same map slightly different.
