Some more Impressions

Design, decorate, build, automate!

If you love to build and untangle little messes, we have something for you that we think you’ll find satisfying. The joy of making your own little machine and seeing it work! In Oddsparks, you’ll design automated workshops and put your Sparks to work carrying and crafting everything you need. Including more Sparks!

We’ve made this to be a great entry point into automation games but with a fresh spin for those who’ve already played thousands of hours in the genre. Without conveyor belts, you’ll have to manage the Spark traffic to optimize your designs. We’ve filled your toolbox with options so you can solve the logistics puzzles you’ll face as you tackle both distance and elevation.

You think this thing is cute, but the Beelephant is also one of your most important sources of raw materials, which you need to make your sparks, for example.
These eyes do not lie. If they remain gray, you have nothing to fear and can go your way. If they turn orange, you must flee or defeat him.
Do you wonder why this thing has wings? Don’t get too close to it; it will take off and… Well, find it yourself.

Explore, discover, unearth, adventure!

Take your Sparks for an adventure into procedurally generated worlds! Face unusual enemies like Spunnies and Beelephants as you explore diverse and distinct biomes. Find mundane and magical resources amidst forgotten ruins. Clear up the way to build and connect your workshops. Will you unearth the traces of the ancient past and find out who originally created the Sparks?

Bring your newfound knowledge and all the stuff you’ve made back home to your village. Help your village grow, share with, and learn from the folks you’ve grown up with. With this new technology and the secrets of the past, what changes will you spark in the world around you?
