Forge Industry

learned a bunch from the dev logs on youtube, so I figured I'd give the company my support, played it for about 30 minutes, seems a little rough around the edges with the tutorial, but for a first game from a new studio, very good. They aren't asking much in terms of price, and you get a decent resource management game. I wasn't wow-ed but i don't regret the purchase. Pros: Resonable price, resource management gameplay looks deep Cons: tutorial is lacking Other: camera controls are wierd

This game still needs some more polish, but I think it's has potential to be a solid game. It has a feel to The Colonists, which I like. Right now, it's hard to get into at the beginning because the complexity ramps up a little too fast. But that complexity is what gives it potential. There are so many buildings and materials it's hard to know what buildings to choose first and the route system needs more refinement. Also, at first I didn't like the 'stark' look of the game until I found out there was a day/night cycle that's turned off by default. My suggestion: Turn on the day night cycle, and only turn it off if your computer can't handle it. It makes a huge difference to the look of the game.

I'm going to just say this game has a lot of potential! I honestly had a very hard time navigating the early game. I feel like the "routes" system feels really clunky and took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to link the right buildings together. I think maybe some sort of drag and drop system between buildings would be good. Like maybe click one building and drag it to the other, then it will ask if you want to create a route, give options from there, etc. Really hope that this gets an update, and the play-ability will go up by so much!

lost the first game in 10 minutes, spent too much money lost the second game in 20 minutes, working at a loss 3rd game, making profits, but progress is slow. "ok lets ramp this up a bit" 10 minutes later money is going down, steep. panic sell everything, right no rushing in to this any more. A solid would play more!

Overall it seems very good so far, I haven't played much but I just wanted to help out by leaving a review. I feel like the systems are very interesting and could provide lots of fun challenges. I would like if the early-game tutorials explained certain things in more depth, and if certain icons could be hovered over to see what they mean, such as the one you see if there's nobody working at a building. Great job on the game tho!

[h1]前言[/h1] 《锻造工业》（Forge Industry）是一款沙盒式基建资源管理游戏，当了多年学徒的你，终于可以自己做主了，你将在拥有的土地上，塑造你的铁匠工坊，成为知名铁匠。游戏目前不支持中文，这一点需要注意。 游戏开始你可以自定义你的名字，在平原、雪峰(感觉翻译成雪岭更恰当)、岛屿和沙漠四种地形中进行选择，并且选取是否开启随机世界和动态世界事件，动态世界事件可以选择事件发生频率，游戏本身也拥有有三种难度，分别是容易、正常和困难。 [h1]初见[/h1] 该游戏采用了俯视视角的游戏方式，通过ALT加鼠标右键可以自由移动视角，整体画风比较简洁，树木和石块等采用了lowpoly风格的多边形建模形式，以沙盒式地图不同的层次来体现高低等不同的地形差异，游戏中的小人看上去也比较讨喜，有种玩具棋子的感觉。 游戏开始在地图上已经有市场、休息室以及锯木厂，你需要根据教程前往市场购买原木，然后将建筑与道路连接起来，创建一条将原木运往锯木厂的路线，并将原木切割为木板。 下方可以看到能够建造的道路、建筑和装饰三个条目，根据教程可以在此使用土路进行道路的铺设，然后右键点击脚印来创建路线，同样休息室需要于锯木厂连接提供工人，创建路线时可以选择工作人数，添加制作项，形成一条自动化的运输制作路线。 [h1]体验[/h1] 该游戏有着详细的新手教程，游戏玩法上除了基础建设之外还有着贸易系统，你需要从市场运木材切割成木板在返回市场售卖来赚取利润，以自动化设置工人路线的方式进行锻造生产，囤积需要的资源，比如将铁矿运送到精炼厂，使用燃料需求的煤炭锻造铁锭等等，同样以指定路线的方式进行运输和制作，有种自动化编程的感觉。 可以在修复研究室之后运送需要的资源到此研究解锁新的建筑设施，例如想要自己建设休息室就需要运送石头、原木以及雪松木板到研究室，资源足够之后，花费需要的金钱进行解锁，市场可以通过创建订单来自动买入货品，不用一直自行点击补货，工人如果不够用可以从休息室进行雇佣。游戏中还可以改变游戏的速度，从2倍速到4倍速或者8倍速等等。 [h1]结语[/h1] 该游戏以资源管理的模式，将运用道路和路线进行的自动化制作运输和工业贸易相融合，以简洁的游戏画风，悠扬的BGM打造了乐趣无穷的游戏玩法，同样游戏有着不同的难度以及详细的教程，能够轻松上手，还支持了创意工坊，不过目前并不支持中文，这里也希望制作组能尽早增加中文模式，感兴趣的小伙伴不要错过。 [quote]游玩百态，将游玩心得用汉语化作玩家的指明灯，(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35402408/]点击这里关注汉化语录~[/url] 如果喜欢这个评测，请点个赞让更多人看见[/quote]

this game is about micro-management of routes, which i don't really find fun. it would be much easier to play, if i could make routes by just click and dragging one building to another. ultimately, workers could've just go and buy whatever resources they need themselves, and i only could place orders on what i want to produce. just like in stronghold. doing everything manually feels completely uninspiring and gets boring real quick

Game is pretty nice. Still needs a bit more polish and bug-fixing, but nonetheless a cool automation concept. Achievements in-game are very bugged at the moments. Tutorial should explain a bit better that you can move (completed) buildings, a lot of efficiency can be gained by strategically re-placing some of your buildings.

I don't get it. 2 hours of repeatedly failing during the tutorial. Just suddenly "Game Over". No idea what's going on in this game.

First serious dive into this type of game coming from the devs YouTube video's and can sense a real want to create a cool fun game so i will give this a serious go......for them.....for me..........for the little people!
