About this game

Sandustry is a mining and factory automation game set on a vast, fully destructible planet where every pixel is a physical resource with its own properties. You start by sifting gold from sand and gradually build a complex, expanding factory that uses conveyors, filters, drones, pipes, pumps, and more to form intricate production chains and logistics networks. Dynamic sand and particle physics drive countless chemical and physical reactions, letting you harness interactions between materials like sand, ice, water, steam, seeds, and lava to power industry. As you dig deeper through diverse biomes and landscapes, you uncover powerful artifacts and hidden vaults, solving challenges left by an ancient civilization while unlocking new technologies and deciding how far to push the world toward industrialization.
