The Power Factory is a real time strategy game where you are set to work in building a power company. You will start with nothing but a bit of funding. Your goal is to build up and become a huge multi-million company providing power for all your citizens. As your technology improves you will find new ways to create better and more efficient factories.
Gameplay
You create a power factory from scratch with barely enough money. As you progresses in the game you will unlock new and better technologies for creating a better factory. Eventually you will gain enough money to create multiple factories to supply your ever growing city's needs.
Key features
* Manage multiple factories
* An adaptive AI that controls the world
* Upgrade system that allows you to upgrade each of your buildings separately
* A good tutorial to get your started
* A punishing disaster system

Alpha 0.2.7 is now out

Changelog:
[list]

Rewamped tutorial system, Should be clearer and more up to date

Categorized buildings based on their research level

New building, Windmill, this building is similar to the power station. It generates the same amount of power but can be placed right next to another building and does not require cooling. The graphics for this building is still work in progress

More bug fixes

This is a small update, I thought it important to update the tutorial to with the new controls introduced in the last few updates. Soon there will be a bigger content update containing more buildings and research

Development update

Development Update

Updates has run a bit dry the last weeks, this is not because I stopped working. Rather the opposite, I have been doing a huge rewrite of the core making the code more stable and usable.

The new version is still not ready, and will be about a week before it is ready.

I am working on this project alone and having to do the art and code takes alot of time.
