Mechanics

Builderment makes use of the top-down perspective. The player must manage all aspects of the factory. First and foremost, we must ensure access to resources used to create goods. Next, we can start constructing furnaces, workshops and other buildings, connecting them with conveyor belts. Though they're not too obstructive initially, overtime they start forming an increasingly complex maze.

We must also research new technologies unlocking more advanced buildings; over time, metal gears and wooden frames will be replaced by more futuristic structures.
