I played this game 7 years ago on Android and it was a lot of fun. Now, with everything they’ve added, it’s like pure drugs. I would not recommend it.

I paid for this game on steam before realizing it was free on itch.io, but even if I didn't, I'd do it again to support this game. Mindustry is an amazing game, and I think that it's one of the few games that manages to blend together so many genres and gameplay styles so well. The main point against factory-building games is "As wide as an ocean, as deep as a puddle". In that case, this game is a solo cup that goes to the abyss. At first, it doesn't seem like much, just some turrets, units, factories, and a couple other things. But then you start getting into the interactions between status effects, ammo types, groups of different units, schematics, and it becomes apparent how deep this goes. And that's not even mentioning Erekir. As the other planet that focuses more on the RTS elements, as opposed to the mainly tower defense of Serpulo, it is an EXPERIENCE. And believe me when I say, this shit is HARD. You will get beaten down again and again, have your carefully-crafted bases decimated, and have everything your attack destroyed rebuilt by the enemy by the time you get more units. At the time of writing this, version 8.0 has not come out yet, however, in the bleeding edge build on this game's Github, there is a difficulty selection. One difficulty has 2x more enemies with 1.5x more health. Now, this may get adjusted before release, but trust me, START ON NORMAL DIFFICULTY. Serpulo isn't as bad, but Erekir will beat your ass into a corpse before pissing on it in the ultimate act of hatred. Erekir doesn't hold punches. It's almost like you can see the developer spiral further down the rabbit hole of absolute developer insanity, as the further you go, the crazier everything gets, from single-shot turrets to FUCKING MASSIVE ELECTRIC CHAINGUNS THAT HAVE ALCHEMICAL SIGILS ON THEM. Erekir will throw everything it has at you. And that's why this is such a great game.
