Played the heck out of this a few years ago until I found the mother of all automation scripts...which took all the fun out of it.

		There’s probably some new mechanics in there since years ago which would give some more fun.

		oog -- I do programming for work, don't really want to delve deep into it in a game ;-(

Woah! I loved this game on Steam. If anyone likes factory games (Satisfactory or Factorio) and programming this is a must try. Also got a bit of idle game in the mix. Surprisingly immersive too for a mostly text game.

		Yep, the game has a fun offline idle mechanic as well as just leaving it running. However you should rarely need idle, if ever.

I've been playing this via Steam and having a lot of fun. It's very satisfying that you start simple and when you discover a new way you cleanly reset and do it better next run.

For anyone coming back, the 3.0 release this month changed some APIs (so you'll need to update your scripts) but also added a new Darknet mechanic.

This is a fantastic game, I’ve played many hours of it. If you want a programming based video game this could be really fun for you.

The only game I've ever hit all achievements in! Very fun though I felt an internal pressure to move quickly, similar to the feeling I get when my factorio base starts getting big.

Doesn't work well on mobile.
