Happy Volcano Debuts First Modulus Demo on Steam

Cut, color, stamp, and assemble modular components to build a fully functioning factory from the ground up

LOS ANGELES – April 7, 2025 – Award-winning developer Happy Volcano (You Suck at Parking, The Almost Gone) and publisher Astra Logical are proud to announce the first-ever demo for Modulus, a factory automation game where players build every piece from the ground up with building-block modules. Cut, color, stamp, and assemble these modules to design an impressive factory with your own creative twist.

There are no fixed recipes in Modulus. Players produce each construct from the very modules they manufacture, resulting in a highly personalized approach to factory-building. Witness these structures rise and construct in real time, with each block becoming a visible part of the design. The more complex the buildings, the more advanced the modules must become.

In the demo, players can experiment with a variety of operators, construct Grey and Blue buildings with unique functions, and unlock Zen Mode for relaxed, unrestricted building without objectives. To guide players, a brief tutorial kicks things off for those new to the automation genre.

There are no timers, no enemies—just the player and their factory. Players can relax and find their flow as they build at their own pace. The factory steadily expands, with monumental buildings emerging to meet the ever-growing demand from The Grand Neural Network.
