Data Center

If you like wire and basic tech stuff than this game is pretty cool. Not sure if stuff opens as you go but wish there were some more options (Servers, Switches, just gear in general) Overall been having some fun, Wire all day to come home sit down and zen out running more wire.

I’ve really enjoyed Data Center, and the core idea has a huge amount of potential. However, after spending more time with the game, the current selection of items and systems starts to feel quite limited. I would love to see much more depth around power, cooling, networking, and server management. Features such as raised or false flooring for underfloor wiring and cooling would make building a data centre feel much more realistic. It would also be great to have the ability to upgrade power and cooling infrastructure as the data centre grows, rather than having to remove and rebuild large sections. The server hardware could use much more customisation. Being able to open a server and swap drives, processors, memory, network cards, power supplies, and other components would add a huge amount of depth. Racks should also be editable and upgradeable after they have already been installed. More detailed networking controls would also be welcome, including additional switches, faster cable standards, bandwidth management, network configuration, and better control over how servers and switches communicate. I have spent around four days modding the game and have already added 18 new servers and switches, along with 100 Gbps cables. I have also changed the final level requirement to 50 million IOPS to make the end game much more challenging and give players a real reason to build a powerful, well-designed data centre. I honestly wish I had access to the full source code because I would spend an unbelievable amount of time adding new features, hardware, upgrades, and deeper systems to the game. The foundation is already there, and with more development, it could become an incredibly detailed data centre simulator. Overall, it is a fun and promising game, but it currently feels more like a strong foundation than a fully developed data centre simulator. More hardware, deeper power and cooling systems, better networking, component-level upgrades, and stronger end-game progression could make it something really special.

Its a cool idea for a game, but unfortunately there isn't much game here. If you like sitting around waiting for money to tick up and doing the same thing repeatedly with little tangible reward this is the game for you.

Great concept, but it is just so clunky. My first 10 minutes was just trying the get the cart unstuck because the physics was so janky. The tutorial videos and pages, while informative, were a bit much all at once for me and didn't flow very well for someone who doesn't inherently understand the terminology or background of the game. By the time I understood how to get the first basic contract completed I had less than 5 minutes left and finished it with maybe 2 seconds left. Plus there are things which make no sense like why I just lose cable after removing it. Last I checked it doesn't get consumed if I unplug it... It seems like a very cool concept, but it's just too unpolished and lacks guidance for me to really enjoy it

Overall - the game is pretty great. UI/UX is not there, sound design and physics are buggy, but taking in consideration it's an indie game - the level of those detail aspects are just enough to let you dive into the world of networking. Key concepts of a real data center are done on a level which will give a challenge to even experienced people in the sphere. At the start, the game may even feel frustrating, but getting deeper into the game mechanics (which are roughly 95% accurate to real world) will give you motivation to build the data center of your dreams, planning scalable schemes by dividing and conquering the network the whole game. P.S. I also recommend installing some QoL mods such as buffed cart since the one in game is too small.

オンラインで協力プレイができると聞いて買ったのだが、バグが多くプレイヤーが見えなかったり、チュートリアルがホストじゃないと完了できなかったり、物資が増殖したり、物資購入の際に購入後スペースに台車ごとプレイヤーが入ってたら台車の角度によって裏世界行ってしまったりと快適に遊べない状態です。 また、雰囲気はシミュレータというよりやることの多いクリッカーゲームのように数字が増えていくのを見ていくゲームととらえたほうが正しいのかなと思っています。 ただ、友達とやったらちゃんと３時間くらいは連続で楽しめたのでバグが修正されたら円滑に遊べるようになると思います。 これからの修正を楽しみに待っておきます。
