Cargo Industry

Cargo Industry is a retro-inspired transport strategy game where you start with a single rusty train and truck and build your own logistics empire. Take contracts, connect industries, expand your network, and shape the world your drivers live in.

Build your own transport empire in a retro-inspired strategy game where smart planning and efficient logistics are the keys to success.

Lay down railway lines and roads, connect cities and industries, build factories, and create transportation networks that keep your economy moving. Coordinate trains and vehicles to deliver raw materials where they are needed and turn them into valuable goods.

Plan your routes, optimize your network, expand your infrastructure, and watch your growing transport system come to life. Whether you prefer carefully optimized rail networks or a sprawling mix of roads, trains, factories, and vehicles, the way you build your empire is up to you.

The development of this game started in July 2024 as a hobby project (I did not programming every day), the initial architecture was created on 17 March 2025. Until 17 January 2026 I programmed without AI, about 40% of the development, basic architecture, tile system and terrain rendering. After that I already used AI (ChatGPT, Claude Sonnet/Opus). The game was completed in August 2026. The most intensive development was from April to June 2026. I gradually wrote about 25 longer prompts. The game contains a total of 86 source files and about 20 main source files. I was inspired by games from the 1990s.
