Its basicly a clone of factorio, but worth in every regard and the different setting is not different enought, to compensate the lack of QoL and general perfection of factorio. The keys are wonky. Seperated deconstruct and cancle deconstruct keys. It allrdy had problems with rebinding the TAB button. There are multiple Factorio mods, with the same variety and better controls and all the advantages like Graphics QoL and Multiplayer. Maybe for 5-10€. Not 30.

Its funny and can separate itself from factorio so thumbs up from my side

Its early access so it defs has some growing pains to work through. But it is a nice Factorio clone that takes its own spin on the style that presents its own unique challangers to overcome since your factory is basically run by the Zerg.

The game is great, it’s obviously a bit rough around the edges as it’s a solo dev and it’s EA but it’s got more than enough content to keep things fun. The dev is extremely responsive on discord and he’s changed a few systems already based on player feedback. He’s also put effort on enabling mod support and put a guide for modders too

Actually a quite intresting sidekick of Factorio ideas and mechanics, with it's own face and new challenges. Looking forward for more updates and DLC, and, especially, multiplayer.

I have somehow reached the point where I’m emotionally invested in the employment situation of imaginary insects. 😂 The workers actually make the factory feel alive, and I like that different jobs require different types of bugs rather than everything being handled by one generic unit. The genetic progression is also much deeper than I expected, so there seems to be a lot of room to keep expanding the hive. Then you add the creep spreading and robots eventually coming to ruin everyone’s day, and suddenly my peaceful little factory has become a military operation. It’s a strange combination, but honestly that’s what makes it memorable. Still Early Access and there are some systems that could be clearer, but the underlying concept is excellent.
