Rocks Rocks Rocks Rocks Rocks! Rocks! Rocks!! Rocks!!! ROCKS!!!! There are so many rocks... I can only see rocks... I can't organize the rocks... They spill everywhere... The rocks... They call to me...

I haven't enjoyed factory games in the past but this one hooked me. I enjoyed the first map which is a cramped cave network. It was a challenge trying to fit in all the machinery and I'd have goods being partially made in a small cave, then routed through a tunnel to another cave for final assembly. A big cavern map is also available if you'd prefer to build a large central processing facility. I was going to leave a negative review due to the physics - but they fixed it. Initially the game became unplayable due to lag caused by thousands of physics objects (every piece of ore and item has physics interactions). My initial factory design was routing all ore to a central processing area - which was too many physics objects. So I redesigned out of necessity to have all ore processed at source. But the recent physics engine update fixed this issue - so you are no longer forced into one playstyle by computational limits. The endgame is still lacking and unfun. Early to mid you get the ore connected, basic processing, then the various different product machines set up - this satisfies the early quests and unlocks new equipment - this was the fun part for me. Endgame is just building thousands of each product to satisfy the quest. There's nothing left to do but just leave the game open for hours while it is all produced - I just stopped playing instead. But I'd already had hours of fun. I won't go back to the game until more content is released. But updates are planned and releasing so the future looks good.

good

Reached the end game in 21~ hours. Actually fun concept after moving from Satisfactory, I enjoyed it. Did not finish the game, because the last quests are just do 10x what you just did before. In general, using all available resources in map its just a waiting game. To be fair, its early access, so I guess more complicated parts are planned that would make completing game more interesting.

it ,s fun and worth it

It's a fun game, but it has a few bugs that need working out. I have to start a new game every time picking up a purchased item, where it doesn't show up in inventory. Plus, the computer got very glitchy to the point I couldn't play. I thought it was the computer, but I found out that a resource got blocked by a small portion of wall.

J'ai acheté pour soutenir, donc je ne vais pas mettre une avis négatif pour le moment. Mais c'est un hydroneers "light" pour le moment. Aucun rapport avec satisfactory ou factorio, c'est plutôt un mix de techtonica et hydroneers.

A factory game with physics was a lot more engaging than I thought it would be. It forces me to think about my designs in a way that no other game has. The optimization is decent enough that my potato PC can have a few thousand objects in the factory with little lag. The main downside is the lack of QoL. Everything visually blends together in the inventory and it's difficult to find what I'm looking for. The fact that inventory space is limited at all seems like a very strange choice. Placing down hundreds of conveyors one at a time gets tedious very quickly. Overall it's worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different. The demo is a good representation of the game.
