I'm not disagreeing with you

I generally enjoy a Mario Party game but I barely touched the last one. This seems promising though

Judging where they are and how they present themselves, it looks like they are just trying to be a troll

I'm nowhere near ready to even think about multiplayer, but kudos for the server, hope it gets some activity!

I guess I should have been more specific, I apologize. What is the relation to the word "mander" and the topic of the instance?

Maybe not the perfect place to ask, but under topic specific instances, mander is highlighted. What topic is this?

And that's how they get clicks. And now you're talking about it. And me. So it's working

I'd say this is mostly due to budget constraints. Voice acting, music scores, high fidelity art, models, animations etc cost a ton of money. Making random generated boards / levels / dungeons with simple art and scalable gameplay is simply just more feasible.

Another aspect is the popularity of the game. We've seen a lot of saturation in genres over the years. A the peak of PUBG and Fortnite popularity, there were so many battle royale games coming out. Then we got extraction shooters, and so on.

Personally, I love roguelikes and how we got to the point of mixing it with other genres (Balatro, Dungeon Clawler), but I can see your point. I feel the same about 2D (pixel art) platformers: I feel like I've seen it all already and nothing can excite me anymore.

Really cool read, thanks for sharing.

Jesus christ the patience on you! May fortune favor your endeavours.

I kinda hate how curves aren't a thing officially and I hope they add it to a potential future update. I love the game but I hate spending hours just trying to fix my geometry to get it to look nice. I rather build another factory instead.

Looks like freeform beams, and then foundations snapped to them and finally nudged into place.

Wiki says

The roofing structure was designed to be visually attractive, and incorporates translucent polycarbonate to allow sunlight to illuminate the walkways

The source leads to a book that I don't have, though. Would love to see more angles
