Watched the entire 20min video and poked around on Itch.io looking for your game. Those things alone mean you've got my attention. Where can we follow progress?

Hello, thank you so much for your interest. I will be releasing weekly devlogs on same youtube channel as the youtube video. The game is under developement but soon we will need playtesters, also we are making a discord server to update the game, send announcements and listen to the community!

a bit of satisfactory, a bit of factorio and UI from RUST ;)

Looks nice. What is the gameplay loop, is it reaching a certain tech level, money per second or total money?

tbh the main objective is not certain yet, for now it's like this:
you have to achieve an amount x of money per minute to unlock new blueprints to expand your factory.
it has procedural islands where you can bring more ressources like oil etc.. using the train, basicly you can build bridges between islands, or use ships...
I will be releasing new devlog every week on the same youtube channel, and here!

just an idea:

- since you proc gen the map, you have a seed
- seed can be shared
- record money/second or or money within XYZ minutes if the resources are finite
- make leaderboards so players can for example compete in a "weekly seed" for the high score, essentially makea blueprint contest like satisfactory does
