Autonomica is an open-world survival game playable solo or with friends, inspired by solarpunk aesthetics and driven by farming, automation with organic products, exploration, and futuristic tech. Build automated farms that turn tomatoes into truckloads, craft advanced machines, and explore islands filled with mysteries, strange phenomena, and time-bending challenges.
We're creating a world designed around harnessing clean energy, from cozy farms to solar-powered mega-factories. Every task, like watering crops, harvesting resources, or running production lines, can be done manually if you enjoy staying hands-on. Automation is available when you choose to use it, allowing you to streamline routine tasks and free up time to explore, build, and shape the world at your own pace. Grow organic crops, manufacture synthetic products, and steadily expand your farming operation.

Forget the peaceful countryside routine. This world is dynamic – with real-time weather, seasons, and a living day/night cycle. Crops require light, warmth, and water to thrive. Boost growth by creating optimal enclosures, and monitor stats like plant happiness, efficiency, and yield quality. Want better tomatoes? Treat them right.

In Autonomica, you’ll harness natural resources to power up sprawling production lines. Use structural blocks, machines, and conveyor systems to automate crop growth, product fabrication, and even animal care. From humble tomato replicators to full-blown processing hubs – every system is yours to design and optimize.

Unlock technologies across multiple stations:
Your workshop becomes a playground for innovation – or survival.

In Autonomica, construction is fully modular and player-driven. Whether you're putting together a cozy cottage, a sleek greenhouse, or a sprawling automation hub carved into a mountainside, every structure begins with your own design.

Design your home with furniture, colors, and layouts that matter. Place the right props to unlock room bonuses that affect your stats, relationships, and NPC interactions. From solar-lit bedrooms to tech-packed labs – your space reflects your playstyle.

When the sun sets, they appear. Phantoms – unstable beings born from time rift experiments – haunt the forests. Track them, fight them, and capture their essence using high-tech tools like the Hydro Blaster and Protovac. Store their atomized forms in Nanotainers, and use their power to supercharge your production.

Venture into unstable timelines through Time Capsules and take on three high-risk gameplay modes:
Return with rare crops, animals, and tech – if you make it back.
