Node Farm

There is a drastically disappointing "tutorial" at the beginning that doesn't do a good job of teaching the unique, and frustrating mechanics of the game, that are often unintuitive at best.

Node Farm developed and published by ByerN is a deceptively simple automation sandbox that reinterprets the idea of farming through a logic-driven, node-based system. Rather than focusing on manual planting and harvesting, the game turns agriculture into a problem of design and efficiency, asking players to build interconnected networks that produce, process, and distribute resources with minimal intervention. What begins as a calm, almost cozy experience gradually reveals itself as a puzzle of optimization, where every connection matters and every inefficiency becomes visible over time. The core gameplay loop revolves around placing and linking nodes, each of which performs a specific function—gathering raw materials, transporting items, refining resources, or selling outputs. Early setups are straightforward, often involving a few simple connections to get crops moving from one stage to another. As the game progresses, however, these networks grow more intricate, requiring careful planning to prevent bottlenecks and ensure smooth flow. The satisfaction comes not from speed or action, but from watching a well-designed system operate seamlessly, transforming raw inputs into finish…

Super cute little game. I love that this was a submission for a gam jam and is now published. Its really fun it is a logic game though. I have had fun. Perfect? heck no. fun? absolutely. Simple yet can make you use your noodle.

At this stage I cannot recommend this game. Loved the concept but a few things ruined this for me. Gameplay - Unsure at this stage Controls - Horrible and hard to do things While I didn't play much, you should take my review as a first impressions review. A few suggestions. Easy controls like Ctrl+C , Ctrl+v, Delete. If you're going to do an automation game you have to get the controls right... Get rid of the hold to move. You could put a move symbol on the nodes to do this better and even connection points. Great game and concept as you need to maximise space for the game, just needs to be easier to control.

Needs better tutorials

EN : The game is very good but it has a big issue, there is no possibility to load the save! for example, there I played for 1H and I saved, but by restarting the game 30 minutes later I lost all my production despite that I saved, it made me start my game again FR : Le jeu est très bien mais il a un gros souci, il n'y a pas la possibilité de charger la save ! par exemple, là j'ai joué pendant 1H et j'ai sauvé, mais en relançant le jeu 30 minutes après j'ai perdu toute ma prod malgré que j'ai sauvé, ça m’a fait recommencer ma partie update! FR; j'ai trouvé pourquoi ma partie avait disparu !! Quand on est dans les récompenses de point bleu, le bouton "jouer" ne renvoie pas au jeu mais LANCE UNE NOUVELLE PARTIE!!!! EN; I found out why my part had disappeared!! When one is in the blue point rewards, the 'play' button does not return to the game but LAUNCHES A NEW GAME!!!!
