June 17, 2025 - Hooded Horse is proud to announce it’s adding a new game to its world-class portfolio of games – Sandustry. Mine, refine, and automate the world in this factory/automation game where every pixel is a physical object able to be harvested and manipulated as players delve deep to discover an ancient civilization’s powerful secrets and learn to love the Sand.
Players will find themselves stranded on a procedurally generated planet, armed with nothing more than their wits and a (slightly unnecessary) passion for industrial automation. Discover countless chemical and physical reactions and exploit them to develop production chains, build a pixel-perfect factory, or just embrace the chaos through webworks of conveyor belts and lifts – so long as they get the job done! Be warned, sand will get everywhere.
Explore a fully destructible world, digging, demolishing, and decoding everything in sight – build factories, expand logistic networks, and delve deeper underground to unlock new technologies and discover the secrets of an ancient civilization. Did we mention the sand?
Sandustry will be localized from English into German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese.
Sandustry is coming to PC via Steam Early Access. A press kit is available.
