Factorio

From the website:

Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories.

You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies. Use your imagination to design your factory, combine simple elements into ingenious structures, apply management skills to keep it working and finally protect it from the creatures who don't really like you.

Factorio is currently in late alpha. We have gone far since our Indiegogo campaign in February 2013. So far 67202 people have bought the game.

It's a game where you build factories. I can't really do the game much justice in describing it, but it's pretty cool and they added multiplayer in the experimental releases, so the BLF could actually probably play it together. also please tell me if i'm doing everything wrong this is like my first thread
anyways post pics of your factories i guess

yoooo this game is dope and i love it but it totally owns me. havn't had the time for it since summer but id love to forget around in MP.

Oh yeah I'm getting this on payday for sure

Thanks for reminding me

I totally will be getting this for the trains alone.

added a poll, post if you think anything should be added


so does anyone wanna try and play some multiplayer?

thatd require someone to set up a server I think, though the way the multiplayer works is direct IP connection, so i don't really know

>trains are deathmachines

Choochoo motherforgeter

biggest bump ever because i feel that i should i guess maybe

Trains are still loving deathmachines that blaze along the tracks

I hate you for showing me this amazing game. I bought it last night after watching the trailer and I've probably played it for about 10 hours already. I'm a pusillanimous individual and play without being attacked thoughh

my first few playthroughs were like this but if you learn some of the good base building strategies it gets easier
also you eventually do need to kill the aliens anyway
