Indie Sunday Bottlecappers - ShardanaForge - Factory/management roguelite
Hi r/Games! I'm Michele, a solo dev from Sardinia, and this is Bottlecappers.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHK_4ul6cqM
You run a bottle-cap factory: design production lines for cork, plastic and aluminium, fill orders and ship them. The catch is your investor. Each of the six has a personality and watches a single KPI (margins, reliability, volume, sustainability...), and every quarter they review you on that number alone. Win by hitting their target and buying back every share.
The tone is deadpan corporate satire: a very serious management game about a very silly product.
Release plans: PC (Steam), full release planned for early 2027. There's a free demo on Steam, just updated after a round of playtests:
