‘Factory automation meets anime-style RPG’ moorestech announced for PC

Sakastudio, an independent game developer in Japan, has revealed its new game, moorestech. It’s a unique RPG with a focus on factory automation and a distinct anime art style, planned for release on PC via Steam in the third quarter of 2026.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

About

Combine the fun of anime role-playing games with the challenge of building a fully automated factory! Use gears and moving parts to create machines and conveyor belts, then produce goods and unlock new technologies. You’ll progress from simple windmills to advanced fusion power, mirroring the history of human innovation. Ultimately, you’ll build a rocket and journey home to discover why you were exiled.

Build a Fully Automated Factory

Build a colossal factory as you trace humanity’s technological history.

  • From waterwheels to steam engines, electricity, and fusion. With every leap in technology, what you can do expands.
  • Automate everything from mining and smelting to processing and assembly—build a production network where materials flow on their own.
  • Your ultimate goal is to build a rocket. Develop your factory and aim for a return home.

A New Experience with the Gear System

Windmills turn, gears connect, and machines start working. Adjust how fast they spin and how much power they generate to create your own energy system.

  • High RPM or high torque? Tinker with gear ratios to pursue efficient power transmission.
  • Run short on power and your machines grind to a halt. This is hands-on, physical engineering you can’t get from simply connecting wires.

A Beginner-Friendly Tutorial

A gentle tutorial explains the basics of factory automation from scratch—no experience needed.

  • A complete step-by-step tutorial that teaches the fundamentals of factory automation.
  • No more “I don’t know what to do next.” Your companions will guide you toward your next objective.
  • Veteran players can skip the tutorial and jump straight into serious construction.

A Story Driven by Charming Characters

Princess Yori lives in exile with a group of unique friends. The story reveals the reason she was banished.

  • Yori – The second princess of planet Celestal. Exiled to planet Arcadia without even knowing why. She starts out as a sheltered young lady who can’t do much, but with Ereno’s help, she pushes industrialization forward.
  • Ereno – A general-purpose support AI system who came to planet Arcadia with Yori as her attendant.
  • Kurua – Athletic, genuinely bright, and easygoing. Friendly and chatty. She loves money—and will do anything to survive.

Highly Flexible Mod Development Environment

The Ultimate Modding Environment—Powered by Open Source and Dedicated Tools

  • Create mods with a dedicated editor—no coding required.
  • The game’s full source code is publicly available on GitHub.
  • Planned support for Steam Workshop.
