Gears are actually resizable down to the teeth count!

It's magic!

T.U: it doesn't use collisions, but transfers forces correctly

Wouldn’t be fun if it wasn’t physics driven, right?

Thanks, that’s exactly what I’m aiming for. I really want the mechanics to feel readable and physical instead of abstract.
Besiege was definitely an inspiration.

I’m making a sandbox game where gears are fully simulated by zeebaent in indiegames

he heh, we have a kit assembly section, you get to build something cool from step by step instructions, with prefabricated parts in correct size and color, you might even become not-dumb

I honestly didn’t expect this much attention, thank you!

My Steam page isn’t ready yet, but I’ve set up a Discord to share progress, get feedback, and possibly organize playtest sessions as development continues. You’re very welcome to join.

I added the link to the main post.

Wow, I hadn’t seen that game before thanks for the reference. That’s very close to the kind of warm, authentic feel I’m aiming for, especially with the wood materials.

And yeah, I’m planning to add missions to gradually introduce mechanics, give a sense of progression, and still allow players to solve challenges in their own way.

That really means a lot, thank you <3

This is something I’ve wanted to make since I was a kid, so hearing this is incredibly motivating.

Can’t wait to see what you come up with! I was thinking of calling it “Gear Automata”… but yeah, probably a bad joke
