Friday Facts #417 - Space Age development | Factorio

Hello, we usually show finished stuff in Friday facts these days, but I personally always liked to have a peek behind the curtains and see the (temporary) mess there. This motivated me to do some kind of overview of how the overall expansion development felt from my perspective. If you are like me, you might appreciate it. Our story starts in February 2021 with FFF-365 when we announced the plan to do the expansion pack.

“Since things are getting stable and I’m starting to be pretty happy with the state of the game now, we are ready to give a specific date of the Space Age release… Which we will tell you next week :)”

Oh boy, almost there!

I am so excited for the release date, but I also really hope it’s soon. I would be fine with an EA release that has the caveat of bug and balance changes to come. This was part of what made the original game so great, we the players got to experience the building up to what it is today (anyone else remember biter science?).
