Factorio: Space Age

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Mindustry

    The automation tower defense RTS

  • Or Mindustry, which is open source: https://mindustrygame.github.io/

    Mindustry has two "planets" and they play entirely differently. The newer one, Erekir, is a mix of Factorio, tower defense and RTS elements.

    I actually liked it a bit more than Factorio, because it is less complex.

    I didn’t really like the first planet though (Serpulo) and stopped after playing through Erekir twice.

  • SeaBlock

    Factorio mod pack Sea Block

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Krastorio2

    An overhaul mod for Factorio focusing on end-game technologies and moderately increased complexity.

  • kandria

    A post-apocalyptic actionRPG. Now on Steam!

  • > The source is not publicly available, no. It‘s still being actively developed and sold after all.

    Those two are definitely not incompatible. Take Karia[0] for example, which is fully Free Software[1].
