How co-op works
Online co-op where players program bots to handle farming tasks, coordinate mining expeditions for materials, and optimize resource transportation together. Success depends on planning automation systems and managing supply routes as a team.
About this game
Farmbotic blends farm simulation with automation and exploration in a world where programmable bots do the heavy lifting. Players build and configure automated helpers to tend crops, manage resources, and keep production running smoothly while venturing into mines to gather materials and complete village tasks. The cooperative focus lets friends share the workload and coordinate their systems.

The core loop revolves around designing bot behaviors, gathering resources from dangerous mine levels, and setting up efficient transportation networks that feed production chains. Combat and exploration add action to the farming rhythm, while villagers offer tasks that encourage experimentation with new automation patterns.
Optimizing bot programs and supply routes creates natural replay value as players refine their setups. Cross-platform multiplayer ensures friends on different systems can collaborate, and the blend of planning, exploration, and incremental efficiency appeals to players who enjoy cooperative problem-solving and steady progression.
