Our take on Craftomation 101: Programming & Craft
Automation reduces direct involvement in routine work, so progress depends on planning robot behavior and expanding the workforce rather than manually performing every task.
What is Craftomation 101: Programming & Craft?
Begin on a frozen planet with a rocket and one robot, then gather materials and combine them to discover new resources.
Visual programming lets robots perform tasks such as harvesting, crafting, feeding themselves, and supporting terraforming. Robots can be assembled and upgraded with materials found around them, allowing a workforce to grow from a single unit into a self-sustaining group. The long-term objective is to make the planet habitable by producing oxygen, planting trees, melting ice, and managing fires. New planets can be generated with changing resource, building, and volcano locations. Generation seeds can also be shared, while repeated runs on the same map vary through altered placements.
How Craftomation 101: Programming & Craft plays
- 01Visual robot scripting
- Robot behavior can be arranged through visual programming for tasks including gathering, crafting, and self-maintenance.
- 02Upgradeable robot workforce
- Robots can be built and improved with nearby materials as the automated workforce expands.
- 03Planet terraforming
- The habitation effort involves oxygen production, tree planting, ice melting, and fire management.
- 04Procedural planets
- Generated maps vary the locations of resources, structures, and volcanoes, and seeds can be exchanged with friends.
