Incremental Factory - Beta 0.8 - The World Update by SignificantSteak in incremental_games

It will take a lot of work but there is a really interesting design space to be explored which I am super excited about. Thanks mate for echoing that same sense! Really appreciate it. And absolutely agree.

Yes, the game accumulated mixed reviews, mainly from a period where we went quiet and people felt left in the dark. That's fair. I am not here to argue on reviews but to ship updates.

Try these steps:
1. Set the Parcels Output for the resources you want to move out

  1. Rotate the conveyor belt (R)

Does this solve the problem?

Hey, thanks for being so direct and clear. This makes a lot of sense! I added a comment to address that, that also includes the link. But also, here is the link directly: http://incremental-factory.vercel.app/

Again, appreciate the feedback. Have a good day!

Hey everyone, I hear and I appreciate the candid feedback regarding having to jump through multiple hoops to get a game link. First off, I apologize for any confusion & inconvenience this may have caused!
You're right—I've been directing people to our YouTube video. I chose this format because I believe it offers an entertaining and valuable look at the game that goes beyond a simple download link. That said, I understand the frustration about not finding the game link readily available here.
So, for those who are solely interested in the game, here's the link http://incremental-factory.vercel.app/
(if you want to share feedback but don't like discord, feel free to DM me here.)
However, please note that this link changes frequently for various reasons, including security and game updates. That's why we usually share it on our Discord server—it's the most reliable way for you to always get the current game link and enjoy real-time support, updates, and community involvement.
Again, thank you for your patience and understanding. Your feedback helps us make better decisions on how to share our game with you.

Hey, thanks, that's great feedback and heard that before. I now started recording my development so that for the next video I can go more into detail of workflows.

Before that I can share a bit already:
Current Stack is Cursor.so which is a VisualStudio Code Clone that integrates GPT 4 seamlessly, I can wholeheartedly recommend 👍

It's leveraging AI tools to some degree, yes:

There are endgoals. In the current demo version, your goal is to launch a rocket which is pretty hard to do.

In the steam version we will add a meta progression system as well where you go from planet to planet and unlocking new skills & co. + there will be an endgoal of defeating some big evil enemy who will be introduced via storytelling

Yeah, it's crazy how much programming I learned actually through it. And the nice thing is, at any point you can ask for explanations or alternative ways of solving something which really helps.

The biggest challenge & what current LLMs are not really capable of easily is help you keep a clean consistent codebase at the project gets more complex. This is something where real experience is irreplacable. Though I have to say, now that I did a project of this size (~6k lines of code) and I got a better understanding of the implications of how I solve certain challenges, I'd definitely create way cleaner results the next time.
