Factorio does look like Age of Empires with a 3 pack a day habit. And given pollution is a major mechanic in the game it's on theme.
Mindustry meanwhile has the look of a game you'd find on one of those old 101 games on 1 CD! complilations you'd find back in the 90's, and yet it runs...well like every other game that's ever been packaged as a .deb.
I don't really hitch horses with a game whose main gameplay loop involves keeping an eye on things that are off screen.
