Nubby's Number Factory
A downloadable game for Windows
Nubby's Number Factory is a game about running a number factory. The goal is to make big numbers to level up your factory and make even bigger numbers!

Wishlist full version on steam!

You can enjoy the demo release of Nubby's Number Factory by downloading the file below. As far as I know, it works well on Windows machines, but I cannot guarantee it will work smoothly on Mac or Linux machines. In future updates, I will add support for mac and linux. I will also add localization for CIS regions / Russia, among other languages by play request. This game can only be played with a keyboard & mouse.
In this demo you'll find:
-A complete tutorial
-60 levels
-Lots of replayability value:
-24 unique items to be discovered
-17 unique perks that modify your runs
-5 bosses (3 encountered in each game)
-7 special events
-7 different pegboard layouts
-Developer console for doing crazy things (shift + enter while in game to enable)

the game is great,beated the game with 70 million points
I downloaded this game just because I liked the visuals, but holy crap is this addictive. Reminds me of peggle but a lot more laid back.
Thank you so much for playing! Peggle was an inspiration for sure. Mark the date for the full release on steam! (1/10/25)
The game is wonderful! There is only one question. Which button turns on the console that you mentioned in the changelog version 0.3.0?
Shift + enter turns that on. Sorry for the confusion. I didn't want this info to be readily available to players. Also, if you enjoy the game, consider joining the server for ultimate nubby immersion + dev updates :) Thanks for playing!!
you should make it acsessable to mac
I',m working on a mac build right now!
Hi! The discord link should be working now. Let me know if there are issues.
Also, thank you for playing my game and sharing the kind words! Glad to have you as a part of the community :)
once it releases fully will it be on steam? or will it stay here?
It will be on steam soon. I'm in the process of getting the store page reviewed. The full version will release on steam on January 10th.
Hello! Came from Tiktok and have absolutely loved this game so far, andI'm excited to see where it will go! I did get this crash message however - Thought I'd leave it here so the Dev is aware :)
Hey! Thanks for playing and submitting. A lot of people have been getting this one and it's fixed in the patch coming out this saturday (11/9). Glad you enjoyed nubby! If you want, you can follow along closely with development on this discord server. Cheers!
the new sell price on items really incentivizes rebuilding your kit after every few rounds, the new events are spectacular work--simple, yet well orchestrated. I give update 0.26 a solid 10/10. I've never seen an already good game find so much room for improvment
Hey thanks for playing and thanks for the kind words. I hope you continue to find that the game continually improves after each update :)
there should be a sandbox mode for people that want to mess around with different combos and stuff
the update is very nice too
i like the new perks and bosses
Thank you!
Im probably adding developer controls in an update before the full version
NUBBY'S NUMBER FACTORY UPDATE JUST DROPPED LETS GOO (it dropped 4 hours ago)
this is outrageous. Can no longer spam lobster claw and carry myself to victory. i fear i cannot recover
2 bad
I really like a lot of the changes in this update- the new music, pegs, events, and items are all dope- but I honestly think I like the previous version more. Perks are no replacement for item traits! The de-emphasis on luck and RNG in the item shop was necessary, I understand, but I feel like there was way more build diversity when the perk abilities were tied to the items and their respective proc rates. Though it did make Flutty very broken. I think this change in direction definitely works, especially if more items and perks are added, but I will grieve my v0.25 instant board-clear build that immediately crashed the game.
Will continue to play and follow development!
I was just about to coment something very simular to this. I agree completly
I wasn't originally going to add more content to the game, but you're not the first person to say this to me. This is the comment that will bring about the next demo content update.
I mean, seriously - thank you for the thoughtful and intelligent criticism. Sometimes it takes somebody else to point something out before it becomes blatantly clear. Good luck with your own creative endeavors!
Will it come out on Steam? Love this game
It will! It's coming to steam on January 10th. However, the store page will be up and ready for wishlisting as soon as next week.
Saw you on tiktok
Addicting gameplay. Would be nice if the fullscreen worked properly for square monitors and fit properly like with Nancy Drew games, didn’t expect it to leave a trail of hands lol. Like others have said there are random crashes. Would be fun if there was a sandbox/god mode to mess around with.
Thanks for playing! I'm working on getting 1:1 and 21:9 monitor support working for the next update. I'll probably do an endless mode and add dev commands in the full version :)
this game is awesome
played it for like 20 minutes straight
thank you for this
my highest level was level 49 i think
In the demo, it goes up to 60 so you were pretty close.
Thank you for playing!! I'm glad you had fun. Version 0.26 is coming out tomorrow, 11/3, if you're interested.
i love this game
Thank you! Glad you had fun!
Whooaaaa.. Next update, (coming 11/3), I've added a high score mechanic. I think it'll be a challenge to top this one though...
also got Nubby stuck because he flew towards the left
Thanks for playing! That bugs been a pain to me, but I think it's fixed in the next update. Glad you liked it!
HNNGGGHH IM GONNA LOSE MY MIND I LOST ON LEVEL 59 WHAT THE FARTTTT
10/10 game cannot wait until it's a full release
Thanks for checking it out!!!! Yeah lvl 59 is a doosie. It's a hard game to beat. Keep at it! (hint: in V0.25 the lobster claw is completely broken if you have a lot of them. It's getting nerfed in the next update so use it while you can!)
YYYEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHH. Not a lot of people beat the game. I'm adding personal leaderboards in the next update, so you can have a competition with your past self!
I am so stoked to bring the full version to the public. It's all consuming at this point. My devotion to Nubby is absolute.
I have lost hours to this amazing game. The gameplay is simple, and the loop feels rewarding, nuff said. I would pay top dollar in a heartbeat for the finished product. Can't wait to see where this goes :)
I'm really happy you said that! Thank you so much for playing. I'm super excited to get the final product out to people. January 10th!
Love the aesthetic and concept. Super simple and easy to pick up. I dig Tony, but I was wondering if you would be adding any additional managers which could have some interesting passive abilities and of course more wild looks.
Thanks for playing!! Sorry about the crashes. Those have been resolved in the next update which will be releasing on November 3rd. A lot of new content will be added in that update so save the date!
i love this game its kind of reminds me of the binding of Isaac with the synergies. and cruelty squad with the art style. the only thing that needs fixed are the crashes but other than that its a good game. and if i could make 1 suggestion it would be please add some items that effect the gravity or bounciness of the ball
Thanks for the feedback! The crashes are going to be fixed in the last big update to the demo, which comes out next week. You bring up an interesting point abou tthe gravity/bounciness of the ball. It would be fun to break the physics :)
I will pay 9 billion numbers for this game on release.
Thank you! Only 5 dollars needed :) January 10th on Steam! Mark the date!
i love this game but it crashes from time to time and i hope soon you'll fix that
This has been a bug for awhile and will be fixed in the next update, Please do not worry!
Thanks for the info, have a good day!
LOVE this game! I am so invested in the idea of an early 90's computer game aesthetic and cant stop playing. I don't have any problems besides a few crashes when using the meat orb, but I assume those will be fixed later. I do have one suggestion, and that is to have music playing when you are in a level, maybe even different music for a batch of levels? Other than that I cant wait to see what you do with this game! Keep up the good work!!
Thank you so much! I really want to add some background music, but I haven't been able to put together a track that I feel like fits, but I'm still trying. Maybe maybe maybe might be in the next demo update. There will be one more demo update before the full release, so stay tuned. Lots of fun new content will be coming to the factory. Thanks again for playing!!
Awesome! Also one more question/suggestion, do you think you will ever add achievements to the game? Or do you think that wouldn't fit into the games style?
There will be achievements in the full release on steam :)
very very fun game, but crashes often :c
Working on a lot of those bugs. They'll be patched up in the next big demo update (V.0.26) Lots of new content will be added too. Thanks for playing!
maybe a feature to lock in an item during the mart section would be cool, also maybe u can make it so u can swap an item for a new one after hitting max limit or something, also the game is quite quiet, very cool game! even though i only made it to 58
You were so close! Level 60 is the final level for the demo!
Also - thanks for the feedback. I like the idea of being able to freeze/lock in an item so you can pick it back up at the next shop. You can sell items to make space for other items by the way. In the next and final big demo update, I'll probably implement the freeze feature. Thanks again for the input!
Yay! thanks for playing! I'm glad Nubby could cheer you up.
really like the game, but the discord link is broken :(
Fixed it I think! heres the link: https://discord.gg/KygdTUKTvE
Thanks for playing!!!
very fun. Maybe some different layouts might make it more interesting.
Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback! Would you mind elaborating on what you mean by "different layouts"?
Different patterns in which the pegs could be arranged. Like not in the same run, but different runs with different layouts for the factories.
Thank you! I've been kicking around this idea too. I always thought this might be a good addition. Just needed to hear it from someone else. Consider it done!
nice game
thank you!
