A third-person automation game driven by narrative progression. Build elaborate machines that feed an interplanetary network as you move from planet to planet.
plexum
SteamIn plexum, you are taken by a mysterious technological marvel and carried across an ever-changing chain of planets.
Extract resources, design efficient production lines, and expand your capabilities — but nothing lasts forever. Each planet is a temporary opportunity, for both you and the marvel, to gather what you need.
As you travel, you’re forced to leave everything you built behind. Not all is lost, however — every system you create feeds into a larger progression, where planning, efficiency, and smart use of resources determine how far you can go.
Planets introduce hazards such as extreme temperatures, toxic conditions, or unstable ecosystems - requiring you to prepare ahead while making the most of your current opportunity.
Construction follows clear rules: foundations anchor your builds, floors enable expansion, and machines depend on structured setups - you can't just place anything anywhere.
There is no endless optimization - only constant progression. What you build is a means to move forward, not something to perfect forever.
Progress isn't just measured in resources, but in experience - nothing is strictly gated, but pushing forward unprepared comes at a cost.
