Bought on a whim in the Christmas Steam Sale, I tend not to buy during early access anymore but its brilliant. I can tell there are some story type elements of the final game not complete yet but the basic factory building game is solid and feels well thought out. I was going to try and get a screenshot of my starter factory but I didn't realise how big it is and its impossible to fit it all on screen. It needs a rebuild/redesign as I have unlocked a load of stuff recently but I reckon it would take all day.

Its the first game in ages that has got me completely hooked and its my first factory type game, are there any other good ones?

I will keep the recommendations in mind but I think I have a lot more hours Satisfactory to play yet. I have been deleting my starter factory again and even that is taking ages, there are so many more resources than I thought.

It needed to be done though as I have access to more coal and I have so many new alternative recipes now. I suspect it will take ages to make a new version. I also really need to learn how to do trains but that can wait until I have redone my main factory.

I think I am at over 500 hours now and I have really enjoyed it so far but I am going to wait until the full release before playing more. I heard that there might be some rebalancing and possibly some resource nodes changing positions. I might look at some of your suggestions in the meantime.

I have been playing a little of Bulwark Falconeer Chronicles which is a strange sort of city builder game but quite enjoyable. The controls take a bit of getting used to.
