You weren’t rescued. You weren’t forgotten.
You were left behind because the main ship ran out of power and your pod never opened.
Survive Through Engineering
Industronaut is a survival engineering game set on a hostile, radiation heavy planet. You are the only active engineer on the surface. There is no evacuation plan and no external support.
Build a self sufficient habitat, keep life support running, and turn raw resources into the systems that keep you alive.

Try the Demo
Play the early survival engineering loop. Build your first habitat, produce oxygen, water, and food, mine the first resources, and start automating production before your space suit gives out.
Demo progress is separate and is not guaranteed to carry over to the full game.
No Combat. No Rescue. Just Systems.
There is no combat focus and no scripted rescue. Progress comes from engineering decisions, efficient layouts, and continuous expansion.
The planet is hostile. Your habitat is the only safe place.
If it works, you survive.
