Show HN: Automat – A New (Game) Automation Utility

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4122050/Automat/
2•mafik•1h ago
I’m happy to say that a new open-source game automation utility that I’ve been working on for the past 2 years is now coming to Steam!

It has a website at https://automat.org/. That website might be a little hard to parse though - so here are are some links:

you can check it out on video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBT9XO61B5I (I usually do a short intro on every development livestream)

GitHub is here: https://github.com/mafik/automat

an article about Automat: https://automat.org/live2025 (if you have any questions - check this out first!)

and the Steam page is here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4122050/Automat/

While Steam version is still in “coming soon” mode, you can grab a release from GitHub. Please note that even though it's free on GitHub, Steam Wishlists are still important for visibility - this is what drives the Steam algorithm! The easiest way to help out is to hit the wishlist button :P

One word of warning - it doesn’t play well with Wayland (it’s fairly hard to interop with other apps on Wayland) - but I’m optimistic about this bit in the near future...

And finally - don't be fooled by it's seemingly game-oriented focus. At it's core it's a visual programming environment!
