Reflector: Laser Defense (itch.io|twitter|blog|github) Roguelike base-building in an hour

Recommendation for someone who likes CDDA? Something that is focused on base building (building a farm, mining, hoarding resources) but has decent combat.
I recommend my own game Reflector: Laser Defense but with a big caveat: it is much more puzzle-like and less simulationist than CDDA. Everything has a 1hp. The core mechanic is about reflecting and manipulating laser beams.

Rot js drawing at arbitrary positions?
Like some others, I use rot.js for some map gen and rng but for rendering I use a different library, pixi, which let's me use particles and animations. It's kinda messy, but you can browse my code here https://github.com/mscottmoore/reflector (src/lib/renderer)

Roguelikes where tiles represent bigger regions?
My game, Reflector: Laser Defense, sort of fits the description, but it might be at slightly smaller scale than you're looking for. A single tile in Reflector represents a big enough area for an entire building, or entire farm. You can't zoom in any closer.

Took a break from working on Reflector to participate in the 7DRL jam, this time with a couple collaborators: u/Lemunde doing the sprites and other art, and u/brightbone63 composing music and making sfx. I'll save my main write-up for the dedicated thread, but I'm really happy with how it came together. It was a rush at the end, and I'm not confident in the late-game balance, but it feels like a complete game.

Turn-based city builder a good idea?
I'm working on a turn-based base builder, Reflector: Laser Defense. There's an emphasis on tactical combat, the specific mechanics of which really wouldn't work well in real time (with or without pause). There's production and resource management as well, which works mostly how you describe. I think it works out alright, though it's sometimes confusing. Give it a try and let me know if you have any questions!

7DRL 2021 Brainstorming
If you want something with a little less magic, pixi.js is a good option. I believe phaser uses it under the hood. I use it to render the map in my game (non-map UI uses React). You can browse my messy Typescript code here. That said, for the 7DRL perhaps the extra magic of phaser will be nice.
