About the Game

Endless Engine is a roguelike where you build and automate a factory—not a character.

Construct a productionline on the back of a colossal biomechanical carrier, automate resource processing, and adapt to increasingly dangerous environments. Every run offers new challenges, forcing you to balance expansion, efficiency, and survival.

KEYFACTS

  • Genre: Roguelike + Automation

  • 20-30 minutes per run

  • Roguelike: only horizontal progression!

  • No pause: realtime decisions

THE GAME LOOP

"Gather - Automate - Expand - Die"

DETAILED GAMELOOP

1. GATHER

Produce resources to add aditional structures to your carrier.

2. AUTOMATION

Add hoverbelts to build fully automatic productionlines. Smelt down those resources and process them with your production buildings into improved materials for more advanced modules.

3. EXPAND & IMPROVE

Increase your factory and get a higher production, but be carefull not to overdo it - and be a target for environmental danger. Protect yourself by researching new technologies and collect knowledge from abandoned research stations.

3. SURVIVE

Try to stay alive against environmental dangers like sandstorms, heatwaves or fiery lava.

The longer you stay alive, the more rare materials you can collect and get back the central HUB - mankinds last resort on this forgotten mining planet.
