It's OK so far! I will keep playing to explore this game more. But, coming from someone who played through Factorio, Mindustry and Dyson Sphere Program, this can benefit from a few QoL upgrades for a smooth factory game in my preference. It should be easier to replay a level if chasing individual level scores is part of the intended game plan - right now you basically have to quit and restart the game from the main menu to get back into level selection in a comfortable way. When replayed, specifically in regards to timed achievements, the narration should be skipped or skippable on a re-play. I feel a slight frustration not knowing if the menu time is being added to my speed run attempt. Besides, i low key feel the intent of this game is to be a "cozy" factory game, and at the same time, completing level 1 in 3.5 minutes requires quite a lot perfection in clicking away menus and dragging pipes to accomplish (i really tried and was a whooping 30 seconds late on speed on the very first level's achievement). I don't think it inspires "replayability" to have to go back with potential late game upgrades to solve the first level in a certain way for an achievement. I prefer alternative achievements for levels etc to be accomplishable when you actually are there. Besides, the game yet doesnt explain these requirements fully either. example "Reach highscore 20 on level X". How? What gives high score? The game doesn't really tell me. Simply put, the game should perhaps take a different direction into side-objectives if this is a desired aspect of the game. Good spontaneous inspiration for level replayability I appreciate can be found in Denshattack (side objectives) or in Thronefall (with selectable perks and difficulty modifiers that the player must use minimum combinations of to reach full score on a level) The pipe hubs should be an early addition, and not something introduced at the end of level 3, in my opinion. Also, maybe i didnt get there yet, but it's quite bothersome that the launch pads does not send rockets to separate astroids based on the rocket's contents. If i run 3 different materials into a launch pads, all 3 will inescapably be delivered to the connected landing pad, and not just the one resource i mapped for delivery. Maybe it's an intended game rule, but its not very .. fun. The graphical aestethics is really pretty, but its also almost a bit too stencilized, making a lot of the small details (that you actually need to keep track of whats going on) hard to see. Many resources look quite similar, and there are very limited information on what is what. you basically need to learn the icons by heart or get hung up regularly on having to circle back to remember what materials an icon meant. All this aside, the basics for an accessible factory game is there. It plays similar to a simpler version of Dyson Sphere Program. With my feedback above, i think it could really get there for me.
Disclaimer: This is NOT a factory game. This is a master's course in Topological Graph Theory DISGUISED as a factory game. I find it prudent to compare a shared problem-solving experience many players will encounter throughout a myriad of factory games. This, of course, is what players do when confronted with a belt crossing. In Factorio, when you need to cross belts, the solution is simple: Build an underground belt that travels underneath the first. This is easy and intuitive to understand, and demonstrates how the best solution to a problem is often the simplest one. In Shapez 2, when confronted with the same problem, you can increase or decrease the machine layer to pass belts underneath or above one another. This, of course, mirrors the larger gimmick of the game: the freedom of layered building. In Satisfactory, there are perhaps a hundred different ways to solve this singular problem, each neither inferior nor superior to another. Rather, each is unique and different. You could simply build a conveyor lift to rise one conveyor over another. Or, if the look of lifts is displeasing to you, you could use a conveyor support to form a sloped conveyor, producing a more sleek and elegant design. If, however, neither of these seemed appealing, you could simply merge the two belts and use a smart splitter further down the line to re-separate them. For whatever reason. The point is, these many solutions to the singular problem of a belt crossing symbolize Satisfactory's core design principle: Each person's factory is unique to them, and no person's way of playing the game is superior to another's. Thus, we see a game's fundamental essence revealed in the solutions to this problem. So, you may ask, what fundamental essence does this game reveal of itself through this very same problem? Well, it is a simple, blunt response: TOO. GODDᾹMN. BAD. THERE IS NO EASTER BUNNY. THERE IS NO TOOTH FAIRY. AND THERE IS NO BELT CROSSING!!! In this game, your enemy is not the numbers. It is not the throughput of your belts, nor the availability of your resources. It is not logistics, it is not production, it is not scale. In this game, your enemy is none other than Mathematics herself. And she has risen scorned. 10/10 game, would recommend
Big fan of their YouTube channel "kurzgesagt – in a nutshell", I got this game mostly to support them. Turns out the game is pretty chill fun. The main goal is simply resource gathering / manipulation from asteroids, but the challenge is fitting all the equipment in the limited space on each asteroid. Fun, casual, puzzle game!
