Project Matter is a 2D factory automation game about turning raw inputs into an ever-expanding production web. Place buildings on an infinite grid, draw connections between them, and research new processing chains, waste recovery loops, and advanced materials.

Project Matter is a minimalist 2D text based factory design game. Place an unlimited amount of free buildings, design a web of increasingly complex production chains, refine and recover numerous waste products into valuable resources, and research nearly 100 technologies all in your quest to acquire stable matter.Progression is driven by Science Packs. Each Science Pack is a physical resource that must be manufactured, routed to labs, and consumed for research. New research unlocks new production recipes, material families, recovery loops, refining methods, and deeper factory problems. Waste is not optional cleanup. Tailings, slag, acid waste, spent chemicals, and other byproducts become required parts of the production web. Early waste may be burned or ignored, but later tiers depend on recovering, enriching, purifying, and stabilizing those streams.Discover and produce stable matter to access infinite and repeatable technology for never ending factory growth~150 resources and byproducts from just 7 raw inputs.6 Science Pack tiers driving a deep, cumulative research web of ~90 nodes.~30 building types across processing, manufacturing, research, and waste recovery.Clean, minimal text based 2D visuals on an infinite grid.No player character, no belts, no combat, no inventory.The web must grow.
