Sweet Transit is currently in development by ex-Factorio 3D artist and developer Ernestes Norvaišas. Sweet Transit is preparing to start its road as a Steam Early Access in 2022. Sweet Transit is home to a world where the railway is king, and trains are the sole means of transportation and expansion.
As players use these mighty iron horses to build new settlements, they’ll work to create intricate production lines to grow humble villages into thriving metropolises while moving through distinct eras such as the introduction of steam power and the invention of the combustion engine.
