It’s a big day for robot chocolatiers around the world. The whole of Captain Contraption’s factory is now available to explore, as you experiment with fresh ingredients and automate ever more complex machines. With 40+ levels to unlock, as well as brand new achievements and fiendish modifiers, we can’t wait for players to show off their creative solutions to all these puzzles.

PCGamesN describe it as "bizarrely cheap"

Captain Contraption's Chocolate Factory is our latest game. It is a contraption building game. Design and build your own machines to combine ingredients to make chocolates. Automate production using simple components to create ingenious contraptions, which are as satisfying to watch as they are to optimise.

Using a simple set of tools you’ll need to automate production of a variety of sweet treats like chocolate covered toasted almonds. The game plays sort of like a mix between a programming game like Opus Magnum, a factory game like factorio and a contraption maker game like The Incredible Machine.

Did you hear? Did you see? Pill Bug’s next game Making it Home launches today!

Whether you enjoyed the bare-knuckle lo-fi thrills of Cycle 28, or the chilled joy of watching something of yours grow in Intelligent Design, we think Making it Home has something for you.

And it starts with testing your vehicle building skills against the full range of twisty routes, tricky obstacles, and fiendish boss encounters that Sean and I have come up with. In doing so, you’ll unlock brand new achievements and challenge modes.

We’re finally letting everyone loose on the game’s full branching narrative too. Will you uncover the truth behind what’s happening to this ladybug and her animal family? And what relationships will you make or break along the way?

Sean and I can’t quite believe we’ve made it this far. It’s been three amazing but challenging years developing this game. We couldn’t be prouder of what the whole team has achieved. And we couldn’t have done it without the help and support of our amazing community here on Steam.

That’s you, that is. Thank you.

I hope you enjoy Making it Home as much as we have.

In our most recent update to our next game Making it Home we added local co-op. That gave us the chance to be part of the remote play together event Valve has been running the past few days.

If you haven't checked it out yet, Making it Home is a vehicle building game where your vehicle is your base. Design it, drive it, automate it and defend it as you travel from one side of America to the other.

As part of the remote play together event the game is on sale, plus we ran a developer stream which you can currently watch a replay of over on the store page.
