About Vectorio
Vectorio is a base-building tower defense game set in cyberspace. Claim and collect resources, build automated supply chains with drones, research new technologies, and deploy powerful defenses to protect your base against a relentless and ever-growing onslaught of enemy forces.No Belts. Only Drones.In Vectorio, all logistics are handled through configurable drones that transport resources between buildings. Assign drones to resource clusters, set up delivery routes, and manage the flow of materials across your growing network. As your base expands, keeping your supply chains running smoothly becomes a real challenge in and of itself.Engineering & CustomizationVectorio's Engineering system lets you modify buildings in ways that can change and improve how they function. Tweak stats and alter behaviors to make buildings work the way you want. Turrets, drones, collectors — nearly everything can be engineered, and no two bases will look or function the same way.Infinite Free-Form BuildingYour base exists on an infinite grid with no boundaries and no predetermined layout. Place buildings wherever you want and purchase new chunks of cyberspace to expand your territory in any direction. The only limit on how large your base can get is how well you can keep it supplied and defended.Game Features:
- Co-op Multiplayer: Build, automate, and defend together with friends
- No Conveyor Belts: Automate everything through configurable drone networks
- Research Tree: Over 30 techs to unlock and discover
- Power Poles: Manage and distribute power across your base
- Alternate Recipes: Discover new ways to produce resources and optimize your supply chains
- Engineering: Modify how your buildings function to suit your playstyle
- Quests & Lore: Uncover the evolving story behind ALTAR and the threats lurking in cyberspace

✦ AI summary
Players praise the core concept and recent updates, but criticize the poor tutorial that leaves players confused about basic mechanics like drone management, making the early game frustratingly boring. Performance optimization is a major complaint, with the game causing significant lag even in early stages, alongside requests for quality-of-life features like blueprint copying and better explanation of game systems.
I am going to have to say no. If some things improve I might change my mind. The game actually looks decent. The graphics are simple, but look functional enough at a glance. I have poked at the wiki a little and I can see it has some depth. And the price asked, is not unreasonable for what is offered here. But I am really struggling with this one. It boils down to to the UI, and QOL. To explain, let me talk a moment about drones, factories, and the UI itself. Drones are the backbone of your economy. You need them to transport every resource. You will need to combine resources in factories to make other resources, which you will also have to transport, using even more drones. To configure one drone, you will need to first click a cargo port, then click edit clusters, then select where to transport from, and then finally ( with a little luck ) select where to transport to. So at minimum, you are looking at four clicks for each and every drone. And that only works if it auto-selects the correct resource which it will often not do. If it does not, you will need to go back, click the cargo port again, find and click the small unobtrusive hamburger menu in the bottom right, and …1 found this helpful
Wanna be mindustry but failing at everythink Tutorial explains NOTHINK ive had no idea how to make the drons work for 30 minuts or smth Its hella boring and 90% of ive just was trying to figure out how to make really simple stuff work as of now i do not recommend you buy this just buy mindustry or anythink else really
Good game but it isn't optimized very well. Im not even 1/4 through the game and my computer is DYING when i run it, please optimize so it isn't to laggy.
Use the keyboard shortcuts.
Remains a bit unpolished however, the recent announcement covers most of my major concerns.
[h1]VECTORIO EXPLAINED[/h1] the game is alittle like the game -the rift breaker- 1: you start in a tutorial realm with a hq in the middel where you learn how to place collectors/miners on resources collectors can hold abit of the resource they mine but thats not much so then you place cargo drones they move resources around into storage or into crafters that can combine resources into more complex resources (there are no conveyorbelts) crafting is just adding 2 resouces as far as i know no complex recipes also somthing about turning resources into liquid 2: during this the map is 1 chunk in a infinite grid of chunks you can buy chucks next to your chunk they say what resouces are in them and how dangerous they are(enemy hives) 3: enemys spawn from the edge of the unlocked map constanly so you need turrets turret use power (most other buildings dont) so they need to be connected to the hq with power lines 4: heat determens how fast enemys spawn and how strong they are right now heat is generated by some buildings but it will be changed in on the 15th of april to maybe be based on the size of the map im not sure 5: your goal in the tutorial world is to make a portal to the aby…
