Really solid gameplay with multiple levels. Great job for a short time!

The game is very interesting. Simple tower defense, but you have to use the generator. I haven't played the Factorio, but I believe it deserves stars!

The visuals are nice, and I really liked the sound design as well. The gameplay is well thought out, but I found it a bit difficult to understand what I was supposed to do, or rather, how to do it.  I think the game could use a bit more guidance. I couldn't figure out which tools I was supposed to use, and I didn't even make it past the tutorial, even though that's usually the part that should explain everything.

But overall, though, it's already a lot of impressive work for just 3 days!

You all did a great job in such a short time! I was surprised to see multiple levels with such solid gameplay.

Factorio meets BTD6. It reminds me a lot of Mindustry and itches the "factory must grow" brain. I wasn't able to beat the Boss Fight level, as I was not able to keep up with all the different mechanics while the enemies are flowing through (i.e. collecting scraps, dodging rocks, thinking about the wiring layout). I would have loved if I can send out the waves myself so that I can create a machine with multiple sparks merging into one mega tower. Nonetheless, great 3 day game!
