Great game, but hard to start

Juju8784

I really love this game. It has some interesting mechanics and I always love trying to figure out how to make my builds better. However, the game provides little to no instruction on how to do most things. You have to figure out everything by trial and error which can definitely deter a lot of players. Having a dedicated tutorial or blueprints on basic builds for some things would help this game immensely

Every Once In A While A Game Comes Along

One that really seems like it shouldn’t be available on mobile, a genuine full PC title. Here, you’re getting one for $0.99. Pros; - Great, ramping gameplay. You can go to new areas and unlock new things at your own pace, and it isn’t difficult to do so. The unlocks make the game progressively more complex, and as you advance to new features and master old ones, you’ll feel like you’re really accomplishing something. - Satisfying construction. Using the pause function to assemble a huge base, and then watching it all get realized is... bliss. - Aesthetic. The pixel art has a great feel to it, and watching the smoke come out of your mines as the conveyors carry around metal is wonderful. - NOT A PHONE KILLER Most mobile games these days, even ones as simple as pong, SLAUGHTER your battery life... Luckily for you, dear reader, this game doesn’t even make my phone get warm after an hour+ of gameplay. - Multiplayer AND it’s multiplayer! What?!!? - Great alt-tab functionality When playing single-player, you can go do other stuff and come right back, the game will remain ready for a while, and it autosaves constantly just in case! Cons; - Placement system I disagree with this one, since I kinda like it, but if you have big fingers my two friends who I got to try it said that it felt clunky since they couldn’t see under their fingers while queuing placements. - Good If you’re lame, you won’t like it... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mindustry, A “Classic “ level game

Immediately satisfying and compelling. In the vein of Factorio. Everything I look for in a game. A nice improvement would be to have the ability to rally my repair droids so they would rush to the front to be wiped out at every sign of.......friction.

Still early on, lots of fun

I’d like to get out of the way the fact that the tutorial frustrated me greatly. Some of the controls are unintuitive and it was hard to make sense of the instructions at times. That led to situations where I couldn’t progress the tutorial. The worst was trying to fix the direction of conveyor belts. Once I got a feel for the general controls, the game was a ton of fun. I’m still early on, but I expect this will consume much of my limited time for mobile gaming.

Really Impressive

This game tests your skills in strategy and planning, and it allows for some ingenious out of the box combinations to get by. I love how the research tree is laid out. I also like how it doesn’t feel like the game is forcing you anywhere, you can go as far as you like for as long as you like. I’m still learning each and every little block’s use, and how I can apply it. I admire a game that makes me revise my play styles. I’m 100% sure what I’m doing today will change a LOT in a month. Great game, absolutely worth the meager 99 cents.

Love this game

I found this game a couple of days after it came out on Steam and knew I had to get it for the phone. I also think it is awesome that Mindustry on the phone can connect to the computer in multiplayer.

Wonderful game

This game is absolutely fantastic and I love the mechanics of it. However, sadly the version of the iOS form of the game is not up to date with the desktop version.

I did some research

I did some reading on if gold had nitrogen in it it said that you have to melt down the gold to get oxygen and nitrogen out of it and you can power something with nitrogen like a nitrogen battery or a splitter to take out the nitrogen and you can do the same with the oxygen to take it out and what your left with is pure gold to do crafting with.

Free on Android!

I played for a while on my Android. Been knocking down boring hours at work with this game like no other game I’ve found on mobile. On pause before wave 1, I can easily spend an hour setting up my base, then the action begins. I don’t often buy games, I only support developers that truly create gems amongst the miasma of crap out there. I am happy to buy this game for my iPad, and as a perk there are additional features on it I’ve already noticed. Like ghost images where your destroyed buildings had been, allowing for precise placement when rebuilding. Also it looks great on the bigger screen and doesn’t lag out during intense combat like on my Samsung. Thanks! Your loyal supporter.

Great Game

A little confusing at first, but it gets easier. Small suggestion: on the mini-map the ship and core should be different colors than everything else. Maybe change the drill and conveyor belts on it too.
