VaryagAnother session, another recommendation for The Rift Breaker
it's such a good and comfy game, it's the first factory-expanding game that actually engages me, and turns out the secret sauce for that was to add MECHA COMBAT
the base building and tower defense mechanics strongly resemble RTS games like Beyond All Reason, so it's very familiar to me, pleasing my monkey brain
(factorio feels too much like work, the complexity overwhelms my brain from leisure mode into problem solving mode)
anyway Rift Breaker is on sale right now for like $10 and it has coop modes
