Littoral Shipyard and Planetary Launch Terminal ruined my life and I loved every second of it. Died over 70 times on each one and just kept going out of spite. There were nights I sat there staring at my core getting wrecked for the tenth time in a row thinking eating glass shards and rubbing salt in my wounds would honestly be less painful than rebuilding my defenses again. But something about this game makes you go back anyway, you just NEED to fix the mistake. 11/10 game, worth every penny.

One of my greatest recent discoveries. The content is massive, the gameplay loop is nicely built and works for many kinds of players: from casuals looking to enjoy the game without sweating too much to tryharders. There are many levers to adjust the difficulty: the different difficulty levels added in the v8 update, the choice of pausing or not while playing and different meaningful options. To me, the start on Serpulo can be quite slow and not enough engaging, but when you go to Erekir or deeper into Serpulo where you find ennemy bases, that's where I find Mindustry so satisfying and stimulating.
