  • MIDI controller - I love how it put the keys on the front bumper 😂

  • 'cyberpunk samurai in the style of van gogh' DALL-E 3

  • Too frikkin' cool!

  • For years I've been wanting a simulator simulator simulator. It's like those simulator simulator games you've played except it's simulating the next level up, playing the people who built the simulator simulator.

  • Not quite the same, but Snowrunner does detailed mud simulation well... and you get to drive various vehicles through it

  • Dyson Sphere Program. Factorio and Satisfactory tend to get all the press, but DSP is AMAZING.

    • They learned a lot of quality of life lessons from older factory games and built them in, e.g. you get bots right away.
    • The visuals can be breathtaking: not because it's raytracing/whatever fancy tech, but simply the scale of the game: giant gas planet rises at the horizon, etc. -- and you can fly to just about everything you see. Star 5 light years away? You can fly to it and visits its planets and moons, and then ship stuff between your home system and the new system
    • It does power exceptionally well: there are a ton of power sources (https://dsp-wiki.com/Energy_Sources#List_of_Fuels), and a lot of depth in figuring out how to power your mega factories. You can even charge up a battery and ship it by spaceship to another moon/planet. Going back to Factorio's simplistic steam/solar/nuclear power feels like a let down (of course, Factorio has its strengths, like trains and extreme polish).

    It's in early access, but it's one of the most polished early-access games you'll find. They're currently working on a large combat update that should drop in December. Price-to-value ratio is ridiculous. It's $20 and I have 155 hours in the game.

  • I'm so hyped for the next Rimworld DLC!

  • That train one is so cool. I'd pay for a large, framed version

  • There was a hearse in my old neighborhood that had a license plate of: "C U SOON"
