It is one of the most addictive games I’ve played, and yet, I have learned more from it than almost any other.
Programming has been a core part of my career for about 20 years, and I can’t think of any other time I’ve had such leaps forward as I did in the first few months playing factory.
It really is a great visual representation of large scale systems management.
KSP really is top tier Edutainment. I finally understood, why we don’t shoot all garbage into the sun 😅. Turns out, rocket science really is some rocket science
KSP definitely. I was literally doing astrophysics at uni when I started playing. It got me a much better sense for orbital mechanics and trajectories than any class ever did.
Kerbal Space Program changed how I understand space flight.
Factorio changed how I approach programming
Modding original Doom and GTA vice city taught me 2d and 3d graphics as well as hacking and programming.
I’m afraid to play Factorio. I can’t afford to sacrifice the amount of productivity that I suspect I would lose.
