def checking this one out! i managed to hold off buying it on EGS for the dev to finally announce the steam version, and he’s put effort in to make it steamdeck AND mac friendly :)
also, roadmap says a more sandboxy mode is planned, which I think will be great for longevity (hopefully)
If I'm bad at Factorio, could I tackle this? I really, really just want a modern update on Sid Meier's Railroads, but this could scratch a similar itch.
i think so. it’s really a very different gameplay loop - mostly you’re laying track and maybe adjusting junctions. the level structure really eases you in, and, for better or worse, there’s no signaling but trains will ghost to avoid collisions (this slows them down, so you’re still rewarded for building good layouts where no ghosting happens)
i think at the very least, you’ll be able to tell if it’s a good fit inside of the 2 hour refund window, or you can watch some early game stuff on youtube

I'll totally get this if it comes to GOG,
