Dyson Sphere Program
A planetary and interstellar factory sim about scaling production across entire solar systems.
The Game Foundry take
DSP is the only factory game where the scale actually scales — once you leave your starter planet, the genre's usual 'build a bigger base' loop becomes 'colonize a solar system, then the next one.' The early game is gentler than Factorio and the visuals are genuinely beautiful, but the trade-off is that combat is shallow and the mid-game lull between your first interstellar logistics and your first Dyson sphere is real. Push through it. The endgame, where you're firing rays of sunlight across the galaxy, is something no other game in this genre does.
