Welcome to your new job:

"Welcome, employee, to the marvelous world of Toys You Like! The most magical place in the world, where dreams come true and the laughter of children is our goal and reward! Here in the Toys You Like family, we value hard work and employees that go above and beyond. Times are tight and jobs are precious, so we require you to work fast and precise."

The Factory:

In this high-stress, multitasking challenge, your day begins with fueling the boiler to get the machinery running. As you control the speed of the engine, you'll need to assemble robot toys on the production line, using a wrench to fix any machines that break down. Fail to keep up with the daily quota and your watchful boss will quickly show his displeasure.

But the challenges don't end there:
Each day brings new obstacles – from mischievous toys disrupting the assembly line to the competitors of the factory intending to snatch you away. Stay alert, stay vigilant and above all stay loyal.

Custom Days:

Have you survived the week? Have a go at the Custom Day mode in which you can tweak all the day's parameters to you liking to create fun challenges and experiments.

Developer notes:

Play time is currently 1.5 to 2 hours, excluding the unlockable Custom Day which allows for endless replay and custom challenges.

The money I make will allow me to continue adding to the game, such as the Deliveries update which adds a second gamemode. Deliveries is a brand new addition to Keep It Running. The packages you made need to be delivered as well and of course this task falls on your shoulders. You will have to manage the lorry's boiler, speed controls and steering whilst following the directions given by your boss. Once again he demands perfection and once again time runs out fast, so best be swift!

System Requirements:

Minimum:
- i3 dual or quad core
- At least a GTX750ti or equivalent, 2GB of VRAM
- At least 4GB of RAM
- Windows 10, 11 or Linux

The game runs well on the Steam Deck too and has support for joystick/gamepad controls.

It's more of a real-life tension than a game.I don't want to work for a company with this kind of boss.Second delivery requires greater skills.

 I've had multiple people say the Boss reminded them of their IRL boss haha

Thanks for making the video! Watching it now :)

New update & Steam release coming in a few days!

Rakoona's playthrough of early access version 0.8.7: 

I pushed a small hotfix to make Day 6 a bit more balanced :)
