- Small Fix - QoL and Dispensers - 9 September 2025
Hello Builders! Some of you reported a couple of issues, so here's the fix: - Stackers and Gluers: When the machine rejects an input many times, it will clear all its content so belts won't get stuck. - Dispensers: Now, loading a save will set the correct u/m for them, as this was failing in some cases. We've made also some QoL changes for new players. If you come across other bugs or more feedback, please use the Feedback Page to let us know!

- Bug fixing - 26 July 2025
Hello Builders! This is a tiny patch to fix some of the issues from the previous one. Fix: Painter and SoftPainter output not changing when providing new pieces Fix: Sloper, Rounder and Slicer producing white pieces after changing their configuration Fix: Creative mode loading Fix: Creative mode saving We are aware of an issue regarding rotations of pieces in the Creative mode and we are working on a fix. As a temporary measure you can try to move up and down the piece that displaces a wrong error after the rotation and it should fix itself. Many thanks to all of the users that notified us of the issues they found, hope you can enjoy the game even more with this update!

- New automation sandbox game Block Factory is basically Satisfactory with Lego - 13 July 2025
I love it when a plan comes together, and there are few more fulfilling videogame implementations of that than the likes of Satisfactory and Factorio. Watching your carefully placed construction line whirr into action to make products and materials is the ultimate culmination of hours of effort. In one of the most logical connections ever made, relaxing new sandbox game Block Factory takes that concept and infuses it with Lego-style building blocks, tasking you with manufacturing all manner of figurines to your heart's content, and it's yours for just $10. Read the rest of the story...
- Fixing Block Factory Optimization - 13 July 2025
Hello Block Builders!We are aware that some users are experiencing issues with the game’s optimization. Ironically, these optimization issues seem to be happening to those who are working on optimizing their factories to achieve the highest scores, while more casual builders aren’t experiencing any trouble.Our objective has always been giving the best of both worlds to our hardcore and casual audience, with easy initial objectives to jump straight to the next level and hard enough challenges to scratch that itch in your brain for those who want to optimize. We are very sad that we are currently delivering only the best of one world, and hope to bring the best of the other world to our optimizers. We are working hard on identifying the issues, and we are super thankful for all your feedback in the Steam Discussions and our Discord.As we have mentioned in the past, we are a tiny studio of…

- DEMO UPDATE - 11 December 2024
Hello everyone, We noticed that some of you encountered an issue causing world loading to be stuck at 85%. The team has identified the issue and designed a fix which implied rewriting some of the game core programming. As a consequence, previous player saves will become incompatible, thus resetting the level (map) progression. Workshop creation should not be impacted by this change. Thank you!
- ROAD TO RELEASE - 3 December 2024
Hello Block fans, Block Factory was initially introduced to you back in late August, when we launched our first Playtest. We gathered tons of valuable insights from the community which helped shape the game to something more suited to your expectations! What we achieved together We worked hard on refining the onboarding process, to help you learn the specifics of our game more smoothly. We also improved some aspects of the User Interface, to be more in-line with similar games of the genre and reduce friction. The addition of the Challenge Mode also offered another flavour to the game, players now have to scratch their heads and optimize their production and workflow to reach new goals. Things got more serious for Block Factory during the Steam Next Fest last October. We got a big influx of new players and even content creators took some time to try the game out. The community also contr…
- Community Creations #2 - 8 November 2024
Hey everyone! With the Steam Next Fest behind us, the team had a bit more time to look at your latest workshop creations. And oh boy, it’s been an eventful review at the Block office! Is it Halloween still? Some of you make questionable artistic choices... Look at what Cota75 did with their “Stickman” who “Stares no matter what”: Sachindrap is no better, this is pure nightmare fuel: Bakoncat does not even respect their own commitment, the “Little Monster” and its supposed “Big Nose”… The plane nerd We did not expect Block Factory to be successful among the Flight Sim community… PlatinumHawke definitely wanted to prepare for a dogfight. If there’s a F-86 around, a MIG-15 should follow closely, you know what to do next time around! A P-38 Lightning is always a safe bet! The Messerschmitt 262 with a grey paintjob The Gearheads The “red and fast” by William Frederick looks like a sort of… F…
- Demo Update - 29 October 2024
First of all, we wanted to thank all of you who joined us to play the Demo during the Steam Next Fest. We have seen a substantial influx of players and even more feedback on Discord and Feature Upvote. We have dedicated our efforts to bug fixing and to also overhaul one of our core systems: the Units Calculations System. It would not have been possible if not for your feedback. We have worked very hard on this and it has proven to be quite challenging from a development perspective! So let's hear what you think about it, and let us know if some additional tweaking is required! Main Fix: u/m calculations rework All units per minute (u/m) calculations are fixed and should be displayed correctly. Fixes Bugs while loading Random rotations in output items Gluer and Stacker not recognizing input Right click mass delete freezing Bug Conveyor + Teleporter Improvements Conveyor anchors: Now you…

The Zookeepers Another great way to have your friends pick your creations on the workshop: let's use cute animals!
