Satisfactory appears to be offering fans of management, building, and simulation games exactly what they've been looking for. After a period spent expanding and improving in early access on Steam, it launched in 1.0 yesterday, bringing with it a sci-fi inflected, open-world spin to the subgenre of automation or factory strategy games popularized by Factorio and Dyson Sphere Program. Creator Coffee Stain Studios' hard work is now paying off in spades as, within a single day, its full version has been rocketing up Steam's charts and garnering rave reviews from those digging into what it has to offer.
