The first-person factory automation game Techtonica is now on PC via Steam Early Access. It is also available on the Xbox app, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S via Xbox Game Pass. The game is currently being offered at 15% off until July 26.
The game invites players to the alien world where they start with only the basics for digging, mining, and resource production. As they expand operations, they'll need to network machines together using conveyor belts and inserters. With this, they can automate factories and transform them into optimized and sprawling hearts of industry. Inside caverns are scannable artifacts and research to get powerful technologies and enhanced automation systems. For those who want to build faster or explore with friends, they can try and experience it in the co-op mode.
