Factory Magnate puts you in the shoes of an industrious factory engineer with a small loan of a million credits. Your goal is to build an empire of factories spanning multiple planets in a procedurally generated solar system.

But can you beat your competitors in the race for the distinguished title of Factory Magnate?

* Enter into short and long term contracts, committing to deliver a steady supply of products.

* Build relations with companies, affecting your chances of earning more money and even better relations.

* Compete against AI companies who are trying to win the same contracts as you.
