Always good when there is a free demo.
It’s surprisingly polished for early access! Logistics is also much more simplified. A more casual factorio with lots of inspiration from the genre. I saw influences from satisfactory, shapesio, Dyson sphere, etc.
Does it have a dedicated in game modding and full Linux support without proton? One of the two things is the reason I mainly just play Factorio for those kinda games.
Linux native is dead. Even the games I bought that have native support run better (or only) in proton. External libraries habe breaking changes, breaking the games.
Even valve recommends to just optimize for proton.
For modding: nope
Automation and Factory Builder Games
A community surrounding automation and factory games. Think Factorio or Satisfactory.
Rules
- Please stay on-topic: post about automation and factory builder games. There is some wiggle room; there always is when it comes to game genres, but some things clearly do not fit (Pong, a post asking what car you should buy in real life) and will be removed.
- Don’t be a jerk. This covers bigotry and discrimination, which includes but is not limited to homophobia, racism, sexism, etc.
- Please don’t directly link to pirated content.
- When advertising something you have worked on (think your own automation game review website, or an automation game you have worked on), please use common sense for what is spammy. If there’s about four new posts here weekly, don’t post a progress update weekly—we don’t want self-promotion overwhelming the community. But finding new automation game creators is cool, so do post them here every once in awhile! I reserve the right to change this rule to be more specific about what exactly counts as spammy and what does not, but I feel I’ll know it when I see it and trust most posters to operate in good faith.
- Please indicate spoilers. The following format works on both Lemmy and Kbin, but if you are using an app it may not. See this comment for which apps handle spoilers. Note that spoilers in post bodies will just show the text in the preview if you link the post in, say, Discord, instead of spoiling it.
