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!
