About Sandustry

Sandustry is an automation factory-building game where every pixel is a resource that can be mined, synthesized, processed, or destroyed. Build factories on a procedurally generated planet, unlock powerful technology step by step, and explore the secrets of an ancient civilization.

Sandustry is an automation factory-building game in which every pixel is a resource that can be mined, synthesized, processed, or destroyed. Players arrive on a vast, untouched planet, start by panning gold from sand, and gradually build ever-expanding factories, unlocking powerful new technology and production chains. Every grain of sand and every flake of snow — from seeds and spores to ice crystals — is an entity with its own physical properties: ice melts into water when heated, boils into vapor that rises, and condenses into rain that falls; sand that absorbs water can be sifted for gold; seeds watered into bloom can be set alight for valuable resources. An endless set of chemical and physical reactions awaits exploration and use. The game also includes mod support, letting players craft their own maps, buildings, and entirely new production lines. Deep within the planet, the challenges and hidden vaults left by an ancient civilization wait to be solved. Sandustry is developed by Lantto Games and published by Hooded Horse, launched on Steam in Early Access on August 13, 2026.
