Open Beta — Free to Start

FROM IDEA TO PLUGIN.
NO JSON NEEDED.

Stop wrestling with raw JSON files. Machicrate lets you build TheoTown plugins visually — design buildings, set up economics, configure animations, and publish to the store. All from your browser.

Forget about editing raw JSON by hand. Our visual editor lets you configure every property of your plugin through a clean, intuitive interface — just fill in the fields and see results instantly.

  • Form-based property editor — no JSON syntax to memorize
  • Real-time validation catches errors before you export
  • Supports buildings, roads, vehicles, trees, and more

Upload your spritesheets and let the editor handle the rest. Slice frames, preview animations, and assign graphics to your plugin — all in one place.

  • Drag-and-drop spritesheet upload
  • Frame slicer with live animation preview
  • Auto-links assets to your plugin drafts

DEBUG_CONSOLE

Do I need to know how to code?
Not at all. Machicrate is built for TheoTown players, not programmers. The entire plugin creation process is visual — you fill in forms, upload sprites, and configure properties through a clean interface. If you can play TheoTown, you can build a plugin. For advanced users, we also offer a Lua code injector block.
Is Machicrate affiliated with TheoTown?
No. Machicrate is an independent, community-driven platform. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by TheoTown or Blueflower GbR. TheoTown and all related intellectual property belong to their respective owners. We simply provide tools that work with TheoTown's plugin.
Can I earn money from my plugins?
Yes! Plugins you create are your intellectual property. You can publish them on the Machicrate store with your own pricing and earn revenue from sales. You can also offer them for free. Withdrawal of earnings is available once you reach the minimum threshold in your dashboard.
Which TheoTown versions are supported?
Machicrate supports the latest stable release of TheoTown on desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and Mobile (Android, iOS). We keep our builder updated when TheoTown's plugin API changes.
What happens to my plugins if I cancel my subscription?
Plugins you have already published to the store remain available. You keep ownership of everything you created. However, you will lose access to premium features like the asset editor and AI generation. You can always re-subscribe to regain access. Note that all subscriptions are non-refundable.
Is it free to get started?
Yes. Our free tier gives you access to the plugin builder with limited projects and storage. It's enough to create and publish your first plugin. When you're ready for more projects, the asset editor, or AI generation, you can upgrade to a paid plan.

READY_TO_BUILD?

Your first plugin is one click away. No credit card, no setup, no JSON.
