What Never Sort By Color is

Never Sort By Color is an unreleased indie game in development at Bryan Livingston, currently scheduled for 10 November 2026. It is available on Linux and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

Never Sort By Color is a first-person zen organization game where you use magnet gloves, part detection, sieves, and quick hotkey tossing to sort an enormous pile of plastic bricks into a labeled workshop. Instead of sorting by color, you sort by part type, rebuilding drawers and organizing bays as the floor area opens up. As you complete categories, instruction books guide you to pull exact parts from the right drawers to assemble MOCs that snap together brick by brick, turning the quiet sorting loop into satisfying, functional model building.
