I love the game idea and the way you implemented it! Although I don’t have much time to make much progress right now, I will return to this game in the future.

Great game! I really enjoyed playing it. My only gripe is you don't have a goal to work towards in the beginning. Overall awesome job!

There's no objective markers but the first milestone is to get 1 circle from a circle converter, only hinted at by the presence of the other shapes. It'll also expand the layers of the music when you get your first circle :)

What a fun take on what would usually be an idle game

I don't have too much time to play it for long but it's very satisfying and fun to play

Incredibly polished and fun experience. The music was so relaxing and suited the game perfectly. I do kinda wish the compound interest didn't have a limit, cause I thought I could chain them together, but then found out it wouldn't work.

Very impressive, both as a game and as a technical feat.

Great game flow and perfectly executed. I am amazed on the mechanic implementation. Stunning work!

Really cool, some shapez vibes in the style, loved the node system, a set goal at first would have been nice just so we know what to start with, but it quickly become addictive, great game, the factory must grow !

masterpiece.

Really cool how you turned something like a node editor interface into a satisfying and polished game!

There is a bit of a hump to get over in order to get circles for the first time, but from that point, things really ramp up. The game feels very polished and I ended up with a pretty powerful build at the end.

"Number go up" games are always some of my favourites but this one was one of my favourites I've seen this jam. It was so refined and felt so polished and I genuinely had a blast just setting up lil node systems. I didn't reach end game sadly but I had a lot of fun playing it and had to stop before getting addicted LMAO. One of my favourite entries so far

Whoa 👀

That's a lot to take in... remarkable for a jam entry. Nice work!

This is a super fun concept! It starts this rewarding snowball effect of creative and satisfying moments. The menu options are great to see, and I'll definitely be using the save feature to continue playing. I like seeing my network of nodes grow as I add more machines, but a part of me wants to put them into node groups and condense each of them into little powerful boxes. Great job with this!

Oh wait I can stack noooooodes :o

Oh man, This seems like it could be a dangerous time sink! Hah, i felt myself slipping into a very familiar feeling like when playing Satisfactory!

Nice work, another great jam entry!

Submitted(+1)

Very unique concept! I like the simplistic graphics and the ambient music that sets a futuristic feel :)

Submitted(+1)

Such a cool game, especially in terms of the mechanics and how many different ways there are to obtain shapes with the node system! The graphics are simple yet sleek, and they compliment the gameplay quite well. 

Great work!

I cannot image all the horrors of backend in this game. But damn - really well done game with nice addictive gameplay (though lack of more shapes shortens said gameplay). Also, implementing a save system in a game jam entry? Wow.

Shockingly, it's not that bad, the spaghetti is mostly contained in the node & connection UI code. That's the main reason I was even able to do saves at all, it had a solid foundation to build on. If I were to expand on this, I'd definitely add more shapes and give their harvesting more of a utility. Thanks for playing!

Loved it, was addicted all the way through. I abhor math, so it took me a few hours lol, but the manufacturing style gameplay and troubleshooting my pipeline kept me hooked and feeling rewarded. I love the style and how you can lasso the tiles and move them at the same time. Very enjoyable.

What a fun game! It reminded me of my nights playing ShapeZ, really addictive.

One thing that bothered me a bit was that the shapes ran out very quickly. Eventually, my gameplay became practically just moving the harvesters around because they were always running out of resources.

But that's a minor detail; I had fun for a good 20 minutes, and I didn't even notice the time passing.

This was my astroid factory based solely on squares!

Very fun game!  I love the idea of using nodes in an idle game and making different mechanisms to make the number go bigger!
