TLDR: It's exactly what it claims to be: a simple factory game with not much thought needed. Think Astroneer back in beta. Full review: I played Factorio, Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Program, Astroneer, Foundry, Shapez, Blueprint Tycoon, you name it--if you build a factory, I've probably played it. This one is... okay. It feels like Astroneer did back in early access--despite being a full release game. Everything is just a little bit clunky. The animations are a bit wonky and your arms clip into your torso constantly. The graphics are simplistic to put it nicely. Picking up things is awkward since you can't use your cursor, only the position of your character. Placing anything precisely is impossible--say goodbye to neat rows of houses or machines. Throwing objects with any kind of accuracy is also virtually impossible because your character gradually turns in the direction he's moving, but throws in the direction he's facing.

Each world has its own biomes with different resources.
Use Resource Launchers to gather resources in one world and send them to another.
Set up your supply chains between worlds and make sure everything is working at maximum efficiency!
The world is full of dangers, Zumbys spawn at night and the thing they like most to do is eat Dinkys, don't let that happen!
Use Smart Mines or Towers with all kinds of Ammo to keep the Dinkys safe.

User Reviews
Don't get me wrong, the game is really fun and I can tell there is a lot of love that went into this game, but unfortunately, multiplayer seems to just be too buggy at the moment to be able to play with a friend. I'm willing to consider playing this again once it gets polished up a bit more. Again, really fun game, but impossible to play with multiplayer after having the entire screen glitch and crash from resource accumulation (and the world missions getting bugged, alongside the resource launchers simply not working). After making everything automated and then finally making it to the second world, the first world seemed to just implode and impede further progress.
