Description

Botlings is a Factory Builder with a cool Lemmings inspired twist!

Direct your forward-walking robots through turners, splitters and bridges, transform them into production buildings, have them transport your resources, and design ever-growing production networks in all 3 dimensions. In Botlings, every robot is a resource: guide them to work, reroute their paths, or sacrifice them to construct the infrastructure your factory needs.

Your robots become the factory itself, they don't just operate the machinery.

Send robots into construction sites to transform them into buildings that power your growing industrial network. Each expansion costs workers, forcing you to carefully balance growth and survival. Multiple tiers of production buildings require different tiers of botlings. The more advanced your factory gets, the more advanced the botlings you need.

Design efficient layouts, manage the flow of robots, and keep your systems running smoothly. Produce more botlings with the botlings you have to build the megafactory of your dreams.

But be wary, the more your factory grows, the more unpredictable your workforce becomes.

Features

• ⚙ Workers Become Buildings - Transform robots into the machines of your factory and the buildings that redirect other Botlings.

• 🤖 Swarm-Based Automation - Guide forward-moving robots through systems instead of micromanaging individuals.

• 🚫 No Conveyor Belts - All logistics and resource carrying is done by Botlings.

• 🔬 Technology Development - Research using the processing power of your botlings. Develop powerful new machines and expand your production capabilities.

• 🏭 Deep Factory Design - Build complex production chains where Botlings produce all items using multiple tiers of buildings and robots.

• 🧠 Emergent AI Behavior - Manage Botling sentience-awakening by controlling the pace of technological development and production.

• 🚧 Containment Challenges - Prevent sentient robots from escaping the systems you built. Oh, and watch out for the locals...
