Episode 9 -
Factorio Gameplay - We have all of the basic infrastructure to research just about everything in the game, but production is low.
It's time to grow taller, but how do we do that without having every biter on the planet chewing on our machines
... Well it's time to start going green!
Welcome to this bizarre universe. Where one person has been sent ahead of an entire fleet of colonists to single-handedly build a safe haven for the incoming masses.
Join me as we take on that very important role. We will build, fight, research, and maybe even invent a new and even better, mouse trap. Who knows! I do know that this will be a blast!
Special thanks goes out to the
Lovely Lisa, for voicing the role of the
Factory Overlord!

What is Factorio?
Factorio is a game about mining resources, planning and building factories, automating production and fighting alien enemies. You are a survivor from a space colonist's mission gone awry, and you find yourself alone on the surface of a hostile alien planet. With nothing but the raw stones and ores at your feet, your only hope for survival is to slowly build your automated machines and factories from the ground up to produce the equipment and defenses needed for survival on this strange world.
Apart from efficiently designing and maintaining your army of machines, you will need to protect your factory and yourself from the unfriendly alien hordes who want nothing more than to burn and pillage your hard-earned automations.
What do I do in the game ? You will be in charge of a character that is building a factory from scratch. You will be mining resources, automating production, managing energy sources, designing the flow of items in your factory, researching technologies and defending from hostile creatures. What is the game inspired by ? [*] We drew a lot of inspiration from
Transport Tycoon-like games,
Civilization and
Minecraft. Why should I care ? This game is made by geeks for geeks.
The core of the game is building things. You can create huge almost self sufficient factories. There are machines crafting other machines. All the stuff is travelling on transport belts. There are simple means of "programming" the robotic arms that move things around. You also have little logistic robots that transport things among designated containers.
The ultimate goal of course is to have self replicating factories:) When & where can
I get it ?
