> Factorio pretty much founded the factory video game genre.
I’m pretty sure Zachtronics predates Factorio. SpaceChem 2011, Factorio 2020. I like Factorio more… but SpaceChem is the more demanding puzzle and the better game.
My dream game would be something like this: SpaceChem at the micro level, Factorio at the medium level, and StarCraft at the macro level. Your proficiency at each level would affect the levels above and below it.
Probably an impossible game to make, but I can dream.
