    This is one of my favorites of last several years. It’s far-and-away my favorite factory optimization game.https://twitter.com/Shpigford/status/1107311785642811392 …

    Being sick the past couple of days has afforded me the opportunity to dive deep in to @FactoryTownGame and even at Early Access it's already so fantastic. https://store.steampowered.com/app/860890/Factory_Town/ … If resource management/simulation games are your jam, you'll love it. pic.twitter.com/DI71ztg8y3

        Isn’t it a wild and wonderful fact that Internet distribution means that there is a sufficiently large ecosystem that there can be specialized creators of factory optimization games? And that the ecosystem is large enough to have factory optimization game influencers?

        Is there a good bootstrap-mindset game?

        I have often wanted to play one but playing an actual business is so much more fun!

        Yes. My biggest gripe with Factorio may be idiosyncratic: it leaves me with crippling migraines, I think from the color palette. Only game or app which has ever caused them after 2 hours or less.

        Have you tried Satisfactory yet? Haven’t played it myself because it seems a bit expensive for an early access game, but it looks like it could be a gem.

        Factorio has more depth and is more difficult. The early game in Factory Town is much longer. Still enjoyed it.
