But if you're reading this, you're probably interested in more games from us. And we've got a brand new game (developed by a brand new team, so Craftomation 101 update schedule will not be affected). Meet SuperWEIRD:

It's a co-op automation adventure set in… we're not sure? (Seriously, pigs in shades? Fish with hats?)



But it's ok: all you have to do is repair everything, clear this place of corruption, and defeat a bunch of manic monsters. Then you'll get outta here (maybe)!

Use flags to set tasks for hordes of rusty robots! Make them work for you - crafting stuff, making swords and shields - everything can be done by hand, but also automated by tuning the system of flags.

...and/or it all can be done with a little help from your friends:



After everything is set up, watch your army of dysfunctional warriors as they march towards their doom!



You can wishlist SuperWEIRD right away, and also apply for the future playtest - we'll need your feedback to make this game even more awesome:

Disclaimer: We'll mention that again, just to be clear: SuperWEIRD is developed by a separate team. Updates for Craftomation 101 will still be released on a regular basis.
