Machineers

Machineers is a programming adventure game in which you solve engineering challenges by repairing and building machines. You play as Zola, an apprentice Machineer working at Hayden’s repair shop in the rusty amusement park of Tivoli Town. Using gears, belts and electric wires from your toolbox, you fix the townsfolk’s contraptions and work toward becoming a Machineer.

Episodes and story

Each repair prepares Zola for the Vehicle Workshop, where you can design, drive and refine your own car. In Episode 2, Zola travels to River City, where a mysterious saboteur is causing trouble. You investigate who is behind the mischief and help the town’s people. Five episodes are planned, and two are available.

Machines and vehicles

Each episode has 12 handcrafted machines to build and repair. The Vehicle Workshop is a sandbox for designing cars and boats, including tricycles, tanks and boats with oars or sails. Repairing machines and building vehicles helps develop a programmer’s mindset.

The world and music

Machineers’ cities and characters have a robotic look made from photographs of scrap metal and machine parts. An original soundtrack accompanies the tinkering in the repair shop.
