p.s. Sorry if this is a repeat notice to some of you, it seems the previous announcement wasn't formatted correctly and maybe didn't reach the right set of players ːsteamfacepalmː

Free demo released for Factory Town: Idle (spinoff of Factory Town)
It has a lot of the same items & recipes of Factory Town, but everything is controlled through top-level menus where you can create new buildings with a button click, reassign workers to different production tasks, control your crop cultivation, and manage research & upgrades. So it scratches that same supply chain management itch that Factory Town does, but without worrying about paths or transport or things like that. Also your towns keep working while the game is closed so you can collect a lot of progress when you come back.
I just released a free demo on Steam and I thought people here would want to know about it (see the big green 'demo' button): https://store.steampowered.com/app/2207490/Factory_Town_Idle/
Full version (probably Early Access) is planned for release this April 20. Happy to answer any questions you have!
2.1.7 Patch Notes
2.1.6 Patch Notes
- When selecting a building, the default display tabs will more closely align with its function (Production buildings use the Production Tab, Schools use the Research tab, etc)
- Fixed Research Cost Multiplier values other than 100% causing all infinite research cost to be zero
2.1.5 Patch Notes
- Increased size of selected building menu, so that the ‘add worker’ button is more likely to be visible
- Fixed gamepad prompt initially appearing on Tutorial menu (until the current step is completed), even in keyboard mode
2.1.4 Patch Notes

Announcing spinoff game: Factory Town Idle!
So, I built a spinoff idle game!
It's (unsurprisingly) called Factory Town: Idle, and it's a menu-based version of Factory Town, with extra items, buildings, recipes, upgrades, and minigames. It's still in progress, but very soon (right after the holidays probably) I'm going to open it up to the public using the free Steam Playtest feature. My plan is to eventually sell it for a few dollars, but I believe I'll be able to bundle it so that existing owners of Factory Town can get it for cheaper.
So take a look and give it a wishlist if you're interested!
