Oddsparks: An Automation Adventure is a blend of Automation and Real Time Strategy for both the die-hard fans of the Automation genre and the Automation-curious. Explore a strange fantasy world, uncover the mysteries of the past, automate your workshops, and go on adventures with your odd & adorable Sparks!
In Oddsparks, players will unleash their creativity as they design, decorate, build, and automate workshops alongside their peculiar companions, the Sparks. These cute little critters are a delight to behold and integral to the game's unique blend of automation and real-time strategy.
Oddsparks is a great entry point into autmation games but with a fresh spin for those who’ve already played thousands of hours in the genre. You’ll design automated workshops and put your Sparks to work in carrying and crafting everything you could need - including more Sparks! Without conveyor belts, you'll have to manage the Spark traffic to optimize your designs. Use your wide toolbox of options to solve the logistics puzzles you'll face as you tackle distance and elevation.
Take your Sparks for an adventure into procedurally generated worlds! Face unusual enemies like Spunnies and Beelephants as you explore diverse and distinct biomes. Find resources amidst forgotten ruins. Clear up the way to build and connect your workshops. Bring your newfound knowledge home. Help your cozy village grow, share with, and learn from the folks you’ve grown up with. With this new technology and the secrets of the past, what changes will you spark in the world around you?
With its accessible gameplay, charming visuals, and heartwarming narrative, Oddsparks is sure to spark joy in players of all ages! Don't miss out on the fun - Join the Early Access of Oddsparks on Steam and the Epic Game Store today and help us shape the game as we embark on this whimsical adventure together!
Developer Massive Miniteam and publisher HandyGames announced that Oddsparks: An Automation Adventure is leaving Early Access (Steam / Epic Games Store) and will be releasing its full 1.0 version on May 27th, 2025.
“Watching the player count tick up on the day of EA release, seeing where everyone is from, was such a cool sight and felt amazing!” - Christiane Ebrecht, Art Lead.
“My top Early Access moment was observing first-time players when they encountered the first Spunny. They would throw a Spark and feel so sorry about killing the Spunny with one hit. Their reactions to the killing spree your little Stumpy Spark is committing are funny each time.” - Lukas Fabry, Gameplay Engineer.
So What’s Coming in 1.0?
Version 1.0 is our most polished and complete version yet - every quest line has been touched up, early game flow has been improved, and entire systems have been overhauled, from glossary entries to the damage type framework. Players can expect a brand-new final biome, the Corrupted Ruins, and a full-fledged Base Defense system with it. Build your settlement in hostile territory and protect it from waves of corruption with new defense tools like the Aetheric Attractor, Spark Cannon, and the cleaning-ready Scrubby Spark. It also brings the story surrounding the Sparks to a conclusion, including an ultimate challenge that puts everything you've learned to the test.
We’re also introducing World Settings, allowing players to tweak challenge levels, unlock automation features early, or play in sandbox-style flat worlds with terraforming tools. Whether you're a seasoned automation expert or a cozy crafter, these options ensure Oddsparks fits your playstyle.
Finally, we’ve laid the groundwork for future community creativity: modding support is already in testing, and we’re working closely with early modders to ensure a smooth experience at launch.
You can also try the demo on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S until its full release on May 27th.
