✦ AI summary

Factory Engineer attempts to capture the factory-building appeal of games like Factorio but suffers from significant technical and design issues that make it frustrating to play. Players consistently complain about an overly fast camera speed that causes screen tearing and makes navigation nearly impossible, along with a lack of tutorial, poor UI scaling, unclear objectives on early missions, and the sense that the game was abandoned years ago without proper polish or updates.

I enjoy factory building and automation, but this game just feels bare bones. Scrolling via wasd is way too fast, and causes screen tearing on my monitor, the ui doesn't feel scaled to my resolution, the game doesn't really do anything well, and I'm pretty sure this game which feels realy early access has been long since abandoned, as the last update was 2017 or 2018, with the most recent news being adverts for their recent games (maybe they did a better job on those, idk). Do yourself a favour and avoid.

i would call this a fun little game if it werent for the fact that moving the camera has you absolutely screwed unless you use exyternal utilities to slow the game down.

[h1]Factory Engineer - More like Disappointment Factory[/h1] Oh man, I really wanted to like this little game. It came out by an indie developer, and I love supporting indie developers. However, this game is not fun. You can see (almost immediately) that it uses the same concepts as Factorio. The arm to move items between machines, and conveyor belts. Unfortunately, I got "soft locked' on the first mission and after 15 minutes decided to refund. The game is not fun. [h3]The Bad[/h3] [list] [*] Gameplay - The gameplay is bad. There's no tutorial to help you figure things out. I spent 25 days just trying to figure out how to get the plastic block challenge complete. Also, why am I starting with a semi-complex item (Lego-looking blocks) on the first quest/mission? [*] Soft lock - You get a specific amount of money to start and when you place items down, it takes money. Okay, no worries, that's a fine mechanic. However, on the first mission, the "Global Market" is locked, which means if you spend all of your money, like I did trying to figure out how to even start the automation process, well then you're ♥♥♥♥ out of luck. :( [*] Settings - There aren't any really. Just a resolution,…

Very fun. Very much like Factorio and a little (just a wee bit) like satisfactory. I wish it wasn't so space strict... but fun nonetheless.. Also Dev please add more content to the game! thx!

I played this a while back but couldn't figure out how to get stuff done. Now I am trying the game again but when I use my wasd keys to move with its so fast that I can't even get back to where I need to build. If the developer sees this please fix the options menu in your game. All there is at the moment is Volume and video settings. Its frustrating because I can't play the game. The wasd should be slowed down.
