Roboplant News

Hello everyone! 👋

We hope you are having a great couple of months! It has been very quiet on our side, sorry about that! We encountered some economic difficulties that required us to slow down on Roboplant and get another job to survive. But we wanted to squeeze out some more bugs and add some additional content and we finally made it! Ok, we would have loved to do much more but sadly we can’t afford to do this anymore.
We hope that what Roboplant is today is still something you enjoy and love to play!

The focus of the final release was to add some more advanced energy and water producers and storage and do tons of fixes to make the game more fluid. I won’t get into the bug fixes details but look how cool are the new machines!





Thanks again for playing Roboplant and helping us make it better with your suggestions. It was an amazing ride and we loved every moment of it! From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!

Happy gardening! 🌱🎉

Hello everyone! 👋

We hope you are having a great July! Ours have been nice but quite busy. We have been working hard so that we could release the next big update in time. And we can happily say that we managed to do it.

This is a big update so let’s get to it:

[h3]The new advanced production machines[/h3]
Unlock the most advanced production equipment Roboplant Industries can provide you. Each can help you to massively improve the efficiency of your factory. With more automation, your workers will be able to do more with less time.





[h3]New plants[/h3]
We are adding a lot of new plants for you to play with. Each will have its own requirements and perks that you’ll need to take into consideration. The new plants also look pretty cute!



[h3]Loans and investments[/h3]
It could happen that during your daily activities, you’ll find yourself with either too little money or too much money. So, we added a solution for both!
You’ll be able to take loans to help you expand your business quickly, but be careful they don’t come free. You’ll have to return the money with interest.



Instead, if you find yourself with too much money, then you can make investments to earn some extra profit. You can invest them in safe bonds with a small and steady return or in stock with the risk of losing it.

[h3]Workers renting flow[/h3]
So before you could hire some workers choosing from a pool and you could level up them. But talking with some of you we realized that maybe was not the best path. So we moved in the direction of renting the Beebops.

They’ll work the same way but you’ll be able to rent them customizing them as you prefer. Plus once you choose a partner you can upgrade them with better and smarter AI.



[h3]Managing a factory is simplified[/h3]
We gathered all your feedback and we decided to intervene where you encountered the most issues. We simplified the way you play Roboplant. Let’s have a look:
Rooms don’t need ramps anymore, they are at ground level so once placed they can be used directly. Corridors are still handy if you want to protect your workers from sandstorms and snowstorms.

Stabilizers have been added directly into the room. Now once you place a factory you’ll see some monitors where you can choose the temperature and the humidity of the room.
Energy and water can only be produced, there is no way for you to buy them so it’s totally up to you to maintain your factory active.

[h3]Change of price[/h3]
Last but not least important. We decided to lower the price of Roboplant to reflect these new changes and to be more in line with the market. I know this will affect those that already bought the game and we are terribly sorry about that.

This is all for now! What do you guys think?

Hello everyone! 👋

I hope you're having another great week. Ours has been very interesting so far! Alessia is working on some of the cool features for the next big update while I was following a workshop organized by Spielfabrique. The program is about helping you to become a better indie studio. That is also the reason why this post arrives a bit late, sorry about that!

This week I wanted to talk to you about the next big update. It’s not something written in stone so let us know if you think something should be prioritized more. We plan for this update to go live hopefully in the coming months.

[h3]Advanced production machines[/h3]
Yes, finally! We are going to add multiple advanced production machines that will help you scale up your production. The goal is to have something that requires less time from your workers so that they can freely handle more production lines at the same time.

Here the concept of one of the producers

[h3]Take out loans[/h3]
At the beginning of a game it’s always tricky to balance profits and costs, and sadly sometimes you end up with negative money and there is no easy way out. That is why we want to add loans, you’ll be able to get some money and you’ll have time to get back on your feet.

[h3]Investments[/h3]
Another feature we wanted to add is investments. For those days when you have plenty of money and want to put them to good use. The idea is that you’ll invest a certain amount and you’ll slowly get them back with interest, who doesn’t like free money?

We are also looking into how we can improve the general experience with targeted improvements. The idea is to make a pool or a questionnaire gathering your feedback on specific topics. We are going to work on this in the coming weeks, stay tuned!

Hello everyone! 👋

We hope you are having a great week.

We have some cool news! We finished the last reward your partners will give you when you have a high reputation with them.

I have to be honest, they look pretty cute! And the nice part of this is that when you unlock them they will stay with you forever, meaning you’ll be able to use the new skin in new factories as well.

Here we go:

Meet MegaCorp's new unlockable skin.

Meet the Sunshine Farms' new unlockable skin.

Last week our focus was to finish these skins and do some bug fixing. Now we will start to work on the June/July update. With the next devblog, we will go into details on what is next so that you can let us know what you think. Meanwhile, if you think something should be prioritized in the roadmap or added, please write us a message!

Hello everyone! 👋

I hope you're having a great week and enjoying the exciting updates that were released in Roboplant last week. This devblog will be a bit shorter, but I wanted to thank you for your incredible bug hunting skills. We've been busy working on finishing the last feature of the update and addressing those pesky bugs with your assistance!

Hopefully by the middle of next week, you'll have the opportunity to unlock a new reward in your reputation tree. Partners are generously providing unique skins for your workers.


Each skin represents the partner's distinctive style and approach, but remember, you'll need to build a good reputation with both partners to access all of them.

Personally, my favorite so far is the MegaCorp skin, although I must admit, I prefer the hydroponic wheel offered by Sunshine Farms instead of the producer offered by MegaCorp.

Additionally, thanks to your fantastic efforts, we've been able to address several bugs in Friday's small update. However, more bugs have come to light (a huge shoutout to merak for that), so we will be quite busy squeezing them out!
