AutoForge A factory powered by magic

AutoForge is a 2D automation sandbox where you play Otto, a magical golem building a Mana-powered factory in a large, dangerous world. Lay production lines, farm and raise monsters, unlock a big tech tree, and fight off drones. It supports online co-op, so co-op friends can split the building, exploring, and defending.

Screenshots

A shared factory held together with mana

You and your co-op friends start with raw ore and end with long chains of Mana-powered machines, tubes, and pipes feeding assemblers. One of you routes resources from a distant outpost, another tunes farming and monster husbandry, a third keeps the mana flowing. The pixel world is colorful and relaxed between attacks, and tearing down a clogged line to rebuild it cleaner is part of the fun. You reshape caves and clear ground to fit the plan, then watch materials move on their own.

New regions, old tech, hungry drones

The world opens region by region as you extend Otto's tether to the Apotheos. You head out to find ore, treasure, and ruins, with procedural caves broken up by hand-made places and locals to meet. Ancient technology found out there upgrades Otto's mainframe. Back home, a defense system sends drones after your resources, so you hold them off with a sword, a blaster, and turrets of your own. Splitting the jobs works well: two clear a nest for void matter while someone else keeps the furnaces fed.

Good to know before you team up?

Can you play it with co-op friends?

Yes. Multiplayer with online co-op is included, so you can build and explore the same world together and divide factory work, farming, and defense.

Can you play it solo?

Yes. Singleplayer is supported, and you play Otto alone while building, researching, and defending at your own pace.

What else feeds the factory besides mining?

Farming and monster husbandry. Crops and raised creatures become part of your production lines alongside mined ore and Mana from crystals.

How do you open more of the map?

Otto stays tethered to the Apotheos. Gather the right materials to stretch that tether and unlock the sandbox region by region.
