That's how you recycle... right? Haha I can definitely see the concept here and how it ties into the theme. It's unfortunate that you weren't able to finish because I definitely love the idea and it seems like it's almost there in terms of gameplay :) I could see a post LD version of this being very successful. I also love Factorio, so I'm partial to that.

You say you were too ambitious, but please, for the next Ludum Dare, do not move back when remembering this episode. I really want to see more of this kind of game in this competition !\n\nSo yes, the game is not finish, you already know that, but the idea is great though, and what you made is really honorable ! (randomly generated terrain ! That is not nothing !)\n\nSo keep coding :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"frescogusto","author_uid":"1033311","time":"2017-12-08T04:08:27Z","epoch":1512706107,"modified":1512706107,"text":"i love those tiles, really really good\n\na bit hard control-wise, might be good to have keyboard xshortcuts","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"atmospherium","author_uid":"1004925","time":"2017-12-23T17:26:11Z","epoch":1514049971,"modified":1514049971,"text":"Didn't quite get the feel for what I was supposed to do, I ended up throwing a hopper underneath the garbage and slowly built up my currency.
