New Update: v0.43 Variables, At Last!


Hey mates!

So many of you have been asking for them and they have arrived: the glorious variables are finally here, allowing you to store and evoke parameters and code a more complicated code! The proper manual to explain those is just on the way, but if you're familiar with programming mindframe, you'll get them in no time. Happy coding!



But that's not just it!

[h3]Version 0.43:[/h3]
    • Added variables, allowing to save and evoke coordinates in so many ways
    • Reworked 'low battery' trigger, which is now structured as a checker, similar to 'compare'
    • Reworked 'compare' node, which now compares not the two hands, but one (selected) hand with the contents of a tile

New Update: v0.42 More Visual Tweeks!

Hey mates!

Just like the sources of heat gradually warm out the surface of the mysterious planet in Craftomation 101, we keep slowly but steadily improving its looks.

And it's literally starting to show! It was months of preparations, but after the past couple of updates the game has visually evolved beyond recognition! Hope you like those new graphic treats this update brings you!



  • Adjacent Resource tiles now visually stack with each other
  • Adjacent Frozen tiles now stack too, into one epic layer of ice
  • During late game stages, grass starts growing in the warmed-out areas
  • Hard ice now can be harvested for Ice and molten with Heaters
  • Performance optimization

New Update: v0.41 New World



Hello everyone. I am so happy to finally share with you this very update. Why? Because the world is now completely new. It's big. It's shiny. It's covered by new snow and deeply frozen regions. All of this is hand-drew from scratch and playtested.

Also, the coding tutorial is now adaptive. It will be much harder to get stuck. so more players will have a fun understanding of how to terraform mars using visual programming. Here is the video of how Ivan tried to break it (and didn't succeed).



[h3]Version 0.41:[/h3]
  • Brand new terrain appearance including all the regions like snow, ground, and deeply frozen zones.
  • New big square world (x2.5 bigger than before)
  • Tons of bug fixes

Hey there! We have released an update and it's very nice! Please enjoy the changes for the better:

[h3]Version 0.40 Released![/h3]
  • Animated tutorials added in the beginning of the game, to make it more comprehensive
  • New item: Heater works on Batteries and runs much longer, but warms out less space than a Bonfire
  • Now it's possible to drag Craftomates around while the game is on pause
  • Unpausing the game only activates Craftomates who were active before pausing
  • Pausing the game no longer distorts animations
  • Command Center now warms out one tile more as compared to the Rocket
  • A warning window appears upon starting the new game (to prevent accidental save deletion)

Hey there! You know what's good about Craftomation 101? Steam Summer Sale is happening right now, but Craftomation 101 is still in free alpha stage, so you can enjoy it no matter what, even in your browser!

And, it's getting better, too!



[h3]Version 0.39 Released![/h3]
  • New Command: 'is empty' checks whether a selected Storage or Bonfire unit contains an item and then takes one of two actions depending on the result
  • New Command: 'swap' prompts a Craftomate to switch whatever items it's holding in its hands
  • Craftomates now come in 6 different colors along with different ear shapes, to make them easier to distinguish from one another
  • Reworked hint system, that resulted in fixing some nasty bugs, with other to be eradicated in the next patch
  • The Rocket now clears up space around it before transforming into Command Center
