Monetized videos are alright.

Factorio is a slow paced game in the beginning. If you are making a first look / preview video please consider to play the game yourself for some time (couple of hours).
That should give you a good overview of what the game is really about (and also some experience :)).
We have prepared a single archive for download containing our logos, screenshots, and artwork you may use for press purposes. You can download the Press Kit here.
Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies.
In the beginning you will find yourself chopping trees, mining ores and crafting mechanical arms and transport belts by hand, but in short time you can become an industrial powerhouse, with huge solar fields, oil refining and cracking, manufacture and deployment of construction and logistic robots, all for your resource needs. However this heavy exploitation of the planet's resources does not sit nicely with the locals, so you will have to be prepared to defend yourself and your machine empire.
Join forces with other players in cooperative Multiplayer, create huge factories, collaborate and delegate tasks between you and your friends. Add mods to increase your enjoyment, from small tweak and helper mods to complete game overhauls, Factorio's ground-up Modding support has allowed content creators from around the world to design interesting and innovative features. While the core gameplay is in the form of the freeplay scenario, there are a range of interesting challenges in the form of the Scenario pack, available as free DLC. If you don't find any maps or scenarios you enjoy, you can create your own with the in-game Map Editor, place down entities, enemies, and terrain in any way you like, and even add your own custom script to make for interesting gameplay.
Factorio was in development from the spring of 2012 to the beginning of 2021. It is our first and so far only game. We deeply care about its quality. That means: Gameplay is the king. No annoying bugs. Optimize for performance. Support and interact with the community. No DRM, pay once, get updates for free.
The game runs on Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux. Check the free demo or buy the game at our webpage
Wube (read woo-beh) Software is a bunch of geeky developers and artists that bring you Factorio. Our office is located in Prague, Czech republic. Originally a "garage company" of 2 programmers with an interesting idea grew to a team of about 30 full time professionals and contributors from around the world. The main people behind the project are:
Check profiles of other team members at our about page.
Each week during development we made a blog post about the ongoing development of the game. The articles in the blog range from technical breakdowns, ideas for new features, news about the office etc.
It is our way of keeping in touch with our fans and community.
