I realized today that programming is a lot like a complex building/management game. Just not a very good one.
What are you programming?

Currently, an automated testing system for my company's other soft- and hardware solutions.What are you programming?
Sounds like a challenge, good luck!
The deadline for the first version is this Thursday and so far it's looking like we're pretty much done for that, so that's nice. Though the code is pretty messy, so we'll have to spent some time refactoring.
It's like when you make a system in a building management game and can't quite figure out how to get something to work nicely, so you just kinda hack it together until it does what it needs to do, but there's a bunch of unnecessary additions and there's some bits that would fit a lot better if you would have grouped them together and if you ever want to use the same system for something else you'd have to built around, over and/or underneath a bunch of other stuff that was built around/tacked onto it.
it's basically a game of factorio, you start with spaghetti and eventually build it into something more recognizable and efficient.
Did you give'm free cars?
Surviving Mars is free on the Epic Games Store starting Thursday. I really enjoyed the base game but the Green Planet expansion took the late game to a whole new level. 100% recommend for building/management game enthusiasts!

No link came through but good luck on grinding those minecraft vids. I suppose Minecraft is a building game...
I think this game is interesting:What are your favorite city building / supply chain management games? Here's a quick list of games I come back to often:
I also really enjoyed Rimworld for a while but haven't tried the Royalty DLC. Frostpunk is great but in terms of difficulty I usually prefer something a little more laid back to pass the time. I know this is kind of a stretch for the category but Planet Coaster definitely held my attention for a while since I was a Roller Coaster Tycoon player growing up. Also Offworld Trading Company even though being more of an RTS game had me addicted for a while.
- Cities: Skylines
- Surviving Mars
- Anno 1800
What do you all like? Has anyone tried Surviving the Apocalypse yet? How about Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic? Any big Tropico series players? (I have to admit I've never tried it)
Also feel free to post screenshots of your beautiful creations here!
