Comparing a small TUI open-source game to Factorio?

Those aren't competitors.

that's a good point, actually. the features that differentiate terminactory from.. say, factorio, is the agent telegrams, the lore behind the game (optional, it's a factory game, with a lot to discover story-wise, in-game), and some other QOL features ("blueprint" that let you copy paste sections, with mirroring and rotating, unlockable on the early game; selecting a large area and deleting it, and a few more)

of course, it's not objectively better than any game, but there are a few separating qualities from the average popular factory game xD
