Thank you @GiantGrantGames for being my inspiration for this type of content, I basically copied your style lol 
Игры
i love that every single person that plays the campaign more than once goes for 175 rather than frozen forest
Silicon is money
... i have never once in my life done that. but ive realized its potentcy of loot and therefore
*I GO TO 175!*
Yes
Ground Zero is the tutorial level, it only has copper and lead (and scrap). So it teaches the use of turrets. And once you are done with the tutorial, experienced players just wanna go and continue. But frozen forest is like a second tutorial, but for factories. So most players just wanna skip it. (Like myself :/)
yea rushing it would be very boring :/
This is possibly the best tower defense game I’ve ever played
Lol agreed
wave defense, not tower defense
@@MarcusAseth ?
What's the difference?
@@Shadow_Warrior_ literally nothing, this dude think he albert einstein
@@Xenylard wave defense games are classified as games like decaying winter, zombie games, etc. But mindustry would probably a combination of two, thats why its called a sandbox tower defense game, it uses towers but the free placement of them makes it a sandbox TD. Hope that clears it out even tho this is completely useless information no one will care about
y'know, the concept of tower defense games where the player can intervene has always been an interesting one to me
nice to see dungeon defenders isn't the only game with this concept
I'm glad my video has reached someone outside the mindustry community!
If you like 'hero tower defense' games check out the orcs must die series too!
Mindustry is also an rts btw
I think Kingdom Rush series is also another one of these kind of TD that you can intervene, using Hero units.
@@Urkikk a little, but not as much as these... kingdom rush is one of the more standard tower defense games. (Dont get me wrong though, it's really fun)
Fun fact, you don't need to destroy the building and rebuilding it, just deconstruct it for 1 second then construct it again! It saves major time in high level sectors

Wow some new content for Mindustry i wish more gamers would know about this masterpiece
I agree. It's such a fantastic game
Mindustry is a 2d real time strategy, resource management, simulator, tower defense sandbox game, amd I love it
I agree
It's beatiful
Now beat erekir without turrets

I like how Mrman replied to a comment thats over a year old
@@vpexmc I like how you have beef with a reply that is 2 💀’s
Impossible
game forces you to build units from start
This whole challenge gives me "I'm making food but I'm eating it directly from the oven without any utensils" vibes lmao
😂😂
Bro what the-
That's definitely not something any person would think about
@@thelol6802 yea I will admit, this is very, weirdly, specific
@@googlygoo4575 it's not just weirdly specific, it's the most specific thing i have ever seen someone type.
Oh man, seeing how you handled Nuclear Production Complex makes me bot embarrassed and proud at how I did it. I was basically just sending cores to die and fill up a bunch of vaults, so that when I started an actual run, I had resources! But then I got the Outpost, and just shipped them from my base in someplace or another. Note that I didn't actually produce anything in the map.
So when the t5 came, I shat my pants when it started busting right through my four layer thick plastanium walls. I thought I was gonna go boom, but in some miraculous quirk of the AI, it seemed to want to kill me more than the core. So I just kited it away by a couple inches at a time, building Cyclones fast as I could without any Polys or whatnot. I managed to kill that rat bastard by the skin of my teeth, got the advancements the sector gave me, and never fuckin returned to that hellhole after I noticed the four attack bases right next to it.
That's actually very similar to the way I had to beat it for the first time too 😅 I really wasn't prepared for the eclipse at the end and I too ended up spamming panick cyclones to kill it haha
I did a wierdly similar thing, instead of sending in the resources as cores and letting them die, i set up a massive vault storage area in another map capable of storing ad then exporting several tens of thousands of all resources... then i just skip there and export immediately at the start. I did some very crazy things with processors too hehe lemme know if it sounds interesting.
@@nyscersul42 I'm listening 👀
@@googlygoo4575 Well, for one the backbone of the entire campaign for me was a single processor capable of identifying and supplying any factory of any kind with all resources, with no code edits. Everything defined via the links set, this works great for the conveyor-less base setup. Then, they are also capable of capturing and using any type of unit which i deem appropriate for hauling, all whilst not using the flags system, and not conflicting with other processors. They even release their units when the core can no longer supply or receive from the current factory, or, container - you can also program the same processor using only links and sorters or inverted sorters to dictate what items would be collected/delivered to a container or vault, meaning you can in the endgame have something like an oct handling the transportation of resources into and from a vault, which then supplies and receives from a complex of factories, allowing you to make use of the biggest hauler cargobays effectively. And, thats just one processor.
@@googlygoo4575 The above processor can supply any complex or factory, including unit factories. Only limitation is liquid, which must be piped manually.
Mate just saying I remember there's a button which allows you to stop time and plan yoru builds before advancing further. I found this very useful since I'm not good at microing. This small trick could save you tons of time and you might find it handy. Just saying.
Yea I do know about that 😅 and if you look closely in certain parts of the video you'll notice that I do use it, but I just forget a lot of the time in the heat of the moment lol
@@googlygoo4575 as an avid player of mindustry, I press space any time I sense something bad happening lol, I do this so much I do this in other games too on accident
Also I don’t recommend using flares on defense, they have super low hp
@@tetra8157 lol I could see that happening. I play multiplayer most of the time tho so that's why it's not as engrained in my mind as it perhaps should be
@@tetra8157 in this situation I'm more worried about firepower, I can always use walls and good positioning to add durability
The single best full mindustry campaign playthrough, considering the editing and everything. Even rewatched the video cause I´m a mindustry freak and this video singlehandedly explains Mindustry the best
Damn thanks man! That's so nice to hear, I'm really glad you think that. I'm working on my next video still, but life has gotten in the way so progress is slow. I've had such great feedback from this video and I hope the next one will be received just as well!
@@googlygoo4575 awesome! is the next video gonna be a mindustry one?
@@lennertplayz yup!
Here's a tip for new players:
The enemies will always choose the shortest path to their target (your core) so you can place more walls where there are less powerful towers so they will go to the powerful towers and get totally obliterated, you can use this to manipulate their pathfinding
Edit: Flares, Horizons and Zenith target power, production and storage blocks respectively, you can put an empty reactor, vault and graphite press to manipulate those
Making a hole in your defense with defenses guarding it would also work, even without the thicc walls.
Flares, Horizons, and Zenith target Power, Production, and Storage blocks respectively, so put an empty reactor, an empty vault, and probably a graphite press to manipulate them.
@@PhDoggo im going to edit the comment and add this
and, one more thing. Horizons and Zeniths target power, too, but it's only 2nd in their list.
AntuBRUHs and Eclipses like power, like their t1 counterpart.
For some reason, they(the whole flare tree) don't target power sources and instead go for generators, reactors, and solar panels.
Some units ignore walls and go for the paths with the least powerfully defense killed me a few time on overgrowth.
@PHDoggo generators reactors and panels are power sources.
ngl for a rather small youtuber / streamer this is a damn good video.
Imma make lots more! Thank ya
As a player of this game for 3 years. This warms my heart
I only got heavily into this game last year, but I think it may already be my favorite game of all time
for me, GOD DAMN theres alot of strats that i didnt even know existed, really good video (and challenge)
Thank you so much! I'm glad I was able to teach you a thing or two!
Holy
This man is MASSIVELY underrated
Loved the video, it was so well done, I was so shocked when I say you had 385 subscribers! You deserve so many more!
Thank you! That's so kind
that spore flare idea was the most intelligent thing I ever seen
Haha thank you so much 😁
This game is a masterpiece. I hope more people will play this amazing game. Your video is also awsome and shows how good this game is and how much freedom you have
I'm actually so happy to see other people playing mindustry. As a big fan of td games and of mindustry, seeing people get into this game i thought would be buried under other games is actually so awesome.
Some videos don't need a greatest montage, but the content and how do you talk about it. And that video just like that. This video is great, good luck!
Thank you so much! I want to make many more videos similar to this so I'm glad this one is such a hit!
@@googlygoo4575 as a new content creator, I find your content experiments very inspiring :)
@@Dark_Slayer3000 thank you!! That's really nice to hear
I never noticed what the main player character was called, so when you said ‘Sharded’ my internet-corrupted mind immediately thought ‘doodoo sharded, possibly farded’
😂😂
ah yes, the main character of mindustry, the sharted
I Watched this video thinking you were a popular mindustry youtuber, but to my surprise you only have 300! You deserve better, great content, and gave me great strategies for my campaign.
First playthrough ever I've seen of mindustry.
Imma take some inspiration from your base, I hadn't thought of many clever things you did.
I have a few suggestions: 1. Make schematics/download them from online 2. Make use of launch pads and import your resources from a launch sector that mass produces resources and launches to a sector so you can leech off of other sectors 3. Launch with core schemes to save time
It wasn't stated anywhere in the video but I wasn't using schematics for this run. And I did use launch pads here and there but they weren't super relevant to the challenge aspect of the run so I didn't give them any spotlight in the video
Not once have I played this game, but you made it fun and entertaining. Plus the challenge was chaos thank you!
Well thank you for checking it out!
dude this is one of the best mindustry videos ive ever seen
thank you so much! when i posted it I was overthinking and worried it wasnt good enough, but the feedback i've gotten on it is very uplifting! But there are some things I wish I'd change... ahh well. Live and learn.
It will be difficult without turrets as they are essential for defense and have some unique attributes. For example artillery turrets such as the ripple can be used to jinx the enemy defense and attack them without the range to fight back, allowing your units to be unharmed and succesfully breach the hostile base
i would love to see more challenges like this! really good work.
Thank you so much!
If you decide to go back to Mindustry, press B and select whatever has been destroyed. Its the rebuild button - it has saved me hours of remaking silicone (siligone) factories.
Yea that's a new feature. It wasn't a thing when making this video unfortunately 🙃
@@googlygoo4575I don’t think it was actually. You used command mode in your run - a V7 feature. V7 also features the rebuild function.
honestly this seems like a very cool idea for a 'TD' game in general. Very few, if any, towers, but having to make armies of Units and using unique hero-types (such as the builder drone here) to fight off enemy armies.
Haha I think you just described an RTS my friend!
@@googlygoo4575 shit.
@@buzzlightyearpfp7641 😂
Unique hero types? U mean units?
@@UEnrift the builder.
Having beaten this campaign I'm very impressed that you could do it without turrets. I struggled to beat it with turrets.
Thank you!
Love the Mindustry content, keep it up!
Please make more challenge runs, I love this video style.
Thanks 🙂 I've been trying to get the next one out, but it's been taking a long time 😅 but yes! I plan to make many more like this
Wow I haven't seen this game since I played it when it first came out, crazy to see how much it has changed. Maybe I should revisit it...
Also I couldn't imagine playing this without towers, nice job lol
Haha thank you. And yea I played Mindustry classic a little bit years ago, but just recently got back into it this year and it's insane how different it is. It's quickly become one of my favorite games of all time
We need more of content like this, especially mindustry content :D
Oh also, there is a texture pack called Terios, it makes the Serpulo use Erekir color palette, which helps your eyes not to die while playing for hours
Anyway great video :>
Thank you!! I'm working on getting more stuff like this out in the future!
I typically like to play vanilla, but I might look into the texture pack, seems interesting. Thanks again!
Hope you guy make a video about Erekir, a new planet in V7 update of Mindustry. Your video is so cool, i didn't expect you will make this game
thank you! I have a few videos planned for serpulo first, but then after i get those out, ill definitely make some about erekir!
halfway through the video it occurred to me that this really resembled GGG's videos, and to my pleasant surprise, there he is in the description! awesome video man, im subbed now, cant wait to see what you put out next!
Thank you so much! I'm glad I've been able to capture the attention of another GGG fan!
When I saw your video and scrolled down, it shocked me that you only had 1k. You seriously deserve much more
That's so kind of you to say! I'm just so inconsistent in posting tho so I'm honestly surprised I have as many as I do!
You are having 100k subs vibes.
Good production energy content and you will make it. Just continue.
Thank you for saying that ☺️
i was shocked to see you only have 508 subscribers! this video is killer
Thank you so much!
Tip: I don't know if your playing on a older version, but you can hold B to highlight destroyed buildings, and it replaces them if you put the square over it. (stopped at 6:02)
yea unfortunately this was recorded before that was added to the game. But thanks for the tip!
@@googlygoo4575 Yeah i thought so, sorry for saying this before it was added!

I haven't played this game since July, I should pick it up again.
Side note this has also taught me I need to stop being so stingy with the resources I bring, normally I want to just ration what I brought with me until I get resources replacing what I'm using but I should really use what I bring more than I currently do.
I also didn't know about spore bombing.
Yea when I play campaign I typically just fill the core to the brim. Often many of the resources don't get used, but it's not a big deal really.
But I'm glad my video taught you something!
When i watched htis video the first time you had 399 subs. Youre growing quickly!
Oh dang! Well thanks for coming back to it! But yea I'm really glad how much I've grown in the past few months
Can you play the Erekir campaign? It is much harder, but is made to be less turret focused and more unit focused. You WILL have to redo sectors multiple times to complete it. Almost everyone I know that played Erekir had to. Good Luck!
I will! I have a few serpulo challenges planned first tho, but yes I do want to do that!
I wonder if this is possible on Erekir. You should try!
Omg thank you very much for reminding me of that game I really wanted to play it but I forgot the name :)
this is a really solid video, would be interesting to see more challenges similar to this, especially on the new planet, erekir. love it!
Thank you! I'll definitely come out with more videos and new challenges. But for now I only have good ideas for serpulo, I don't really have enough experience with Erekir to come up with good challenge runs for it yet
@@googlygoo4575
wait you still online?
@@CanOfDew132 online?
Finally a quality Mindustry youtuber.
For planetary launch terminal, well I cleared it without building a single thing. Simply prebuild a core schematic that can defend it self (I used plastasium cyclone), a horizon factory, 2 RTG generator and a overdrive projector. Also a logic processor to make horizons automaticaly pick up blast compound. Then just control those horizon to bomb those enemy vaults near their core. Core go boom before wave 1 can even spawn.
That is really really good to know! I might use that in future challenge runs, but for this one specifically I wasn't using schematics at all (it wasn't stated in the video at all lol) thanks tho!
@@googlygoo4575 I believe you're playing on the v7 campaign? In V6 blast bombing was op and was the main speedrun way to destroy cores but it's been severely nerfed in v7. You can do your own testing on it but I think it's not as good anymore. Give it a shot in a sandbox map tho, maybe it's still viable
@@johnjelee8905 that's correct, V7
V7 killed blast compound horizon bombing,
Also they nerfed blast crash damage
@@HifumiAjitani Yeah, I think the mindustry doesn't have any super op attack sector stratagies, just use decent dps units and it's like that.
i wonder how many other youtubers/streamers there are that are so underrated like you, since its great content here
Thank you so much! I'm sure there are so so so many tho unfortunately 🙃
Holy shit a 5+ minute long mindustry video?!! I haven't seen one of those in ages

Crawler's weakness are just a hell load of smol copper walls, put them around close to each other like landmines, they'd touch them because their ai sucks and the crawlers go bye bye
Yea I did that most of the time, but I did let a few through 😅
@@googlygoo4575 Use quads to murder everything in PLT (last sector) along with an oct if you want to, the quads have insane range (but they are bombers, like horizons) and it does do a lot of damage, 3 could beat PLT with good enough use.
nice mindustry getting famous
Please make more Mindustry content, this was amazingly fun to watch!

run
Thank you! I'm glad I could teach you a bit!
thanks youtube algorithm for giving me something good for a change
That is such a nice friggin thing to say
Well done..! But can you do the same to Erekir where early game units are just superheroes..?
I've gotten this request a few times now but I don't think I will... Erekir has a strong focus on units anyway so it's not really much of a challenge so I don't think it deserves its own video.
But thanks for the compliment!
@@googlygoo4575 That's very understandable..!

This is so cool
Thanks Ember!
0:13 "in the campaign, you play as the sharted"

This game seems really cool, dunno why it's on my recommended nor do i have any idea what this game is, but this is a very well put together video. Might just check out the game even though im absolute ass at RTS
Haha it's a great game! I've only really gotten into it this year but it's quickly becoming my favorite game of all time
@@googlygoo4575 Definitely gonna check it out then!
@@Vepzzzzz best part is that it's free! And you can even play in on your phone and cross-platform with PC
Same I did that when I was a starter but it made me great and I call the sector 175 "Production Centre" where I made a lot of resources by being sent of scrap and trorium to the sector and made even more and more.
Yea 175 is great for that
Pretty sure you can build new walls over broken walls. No need to delete and replace. Saves you a few seconds.
You can, but only if they're a different type. Copper on top of copper just doesn't work unfortunately :/ wish it did tho
Ok now do erekir
Actually erekir would be near imposible you see there isn't any starting low optional sectors to help u boost up and also erekir is almost all medium or hard sectors so im sorry to tell the yt this but it might be a tini tiny bit imposible unless u allow to use UNITS not towers entirely different hmm yes yes
I love your video and yet I just subscribed, if you uploaded a bit more you would've amazing :D
Keep it up bro!
Lol thank you. I'm still working on the next video but life has been getting in the way lately
now do erekir or bad
nah great video, finally some mindustry content in the world we are STARVING
😂
Erikir: *Sweats profusely*
221 is more underrated than 175 imo, I know 175 is good but 221 is a beast of a resource sector comparatively, tons of resources and you can manufacture literally everything except thorium products there thanks to oil pools
Well 175 is the same tbh. Not too much of a difference. But hey if you like it more then more power to you!
next time make an erekir run with only tanks
i really liked the new blocks, it also brings back the old energy distribution from classic and gives a whole other feeling from serpulo, however it's much more linear and smaller than serpulo.
Now the only thing that is left is erekir
I could do Erekir, but I don't find it very challenging without turrets so I probably won't make a video on it tbh
Since units are so early its way to easy
Yea exactly
I am a little late but it would be cool if you add sector 24 into it as it is also renowned as one of the hardest sectors in mindustry.
Oh I didn't know that at all! I could definitely include it in the next challenge I do. Thanks for the suggestion!
Now I feel less bad for dying to it 5 times so far.
The other north sectors would be interesting to watch too
@@ehawhar I watch ur vids :) and true
I don't feel Sec 24 is actually hard, more that it requires a loadout. It's kinda like PLT : If you've ever played on it with no loadout, you'll quickly realize it's not actually possible, but if you even get the tiniest of loadouts, you can get through the early game and the usual difficulty scaling flaw of the camapign ends up making the map super easy.
Sector 24 is an increase of this kind of effect, where a huge loadout is needed so that you can setup proper defences for the early game (which is otherwhise impossible to get through), but gets easier afterwards and does not require much skill with defense placement (Which is currently the thing that actually requires skill to build properly).
The video is fun and pretty engaging but feels a bit empty at moments, maybe consider adding a bit of music in the background?
I never saw this game before but you made interested in it : )
Thank you! But I agree yea, I actually uploaded the wrong file by accident. The actual final version of the video was supposed to have some of the game's soundtrack in the background and had some editing mistakes fixed, but by the time I realized I uploaded the wrong one, I figured it was too late... The next video should be better tho 😅
@@googlygoo4575 ohhh i understand that,
then i'm very much looking up to the next vid!!! good to know it was jus an accident bro :)
This would be pretty cool in erekir. The units in erekir look so coool
Yo welcome to my tower defense game first you build towers.
This dude: *no*
😂😂
Damm this game is very cool it should get more light
I think so too!
This video made me be your 1000th subscriber.
WOOOOOOO
I love the satisfying noises building stuff in mindustry no cap
Same lol
Now the new planet
Yup, I guess I'll have to
Do it with eriekr
Would you be interested to see some rather interesting mindustry processor builds? For example, the majority of my campaign is set up to run without conveyors, no long ones at least, only like a few blocks to link adjacent buildings. Then there is my taxi system - a unit is able to literally upload a taxi request and is then delivered to a chosen place on the map - designed to be compatible with other unit control facilities. Then there is the experimental stuff - one of which consists of a building pathfinder able to build pylons between two positions whilst avoiding and going around obstructions. The backbone of my campaign is a multi-unit-type capable factory identifier and supplier, capable of either running a single factory with one plane, bot, or anything that flies, for example one unit can supply a surge alloy facility without needing setup. Just link the processor and the factory, and it goes. Or, it can run in a specific mode where it only transports to containers, but can be configured. It could be told to deliver the requirements for two different factories into one container, with one plane. And finally, it can even identify and supply unit factories, and, can run in massively parrallel applications with no worries about conflicting orders. There is even an orchestrated army combat ai, which shares enemy location details and summons units to attack them, and, it remembers anything that has been seen, but not killed. It functions like initially a big fat group of units which attack en masse, only then you see individuals retreating for repairs, and once the incoming bots stop incoming, and the local bots in range are dead, then you see the units chase down any stragglers who managed to pass over your defences whilst they were busy. So... unit's only is completely doable, and, fun. :D
Wow that seems pretty insane.
I've dabbled a bit in mindustry's logic and made some useful stuff, but yours is on a different level completely lol
I'm very interested in seeing it if ur willing to show it!
I've got a discord channel for my community where u could show it off!

16:39 siligone 💀
😭
are you going to attempt this on the other planet once its finished?
I want to yes 😞 just don't have much time to make videos these days
11:14 is basically just japanese kamikaze but with napalm, basically better one way trip units
fungal pass used to be possible to clear with the dart in less than 5 minutes. the first core is easy, then you chip away at the scatters to the right of the 2nd core. this opens up an area you can sit to kill the duos, then the final core. the defenses and unit production on start are sufficient defense. i dont know if this is still possible, though
Nah it isn't unfortunately. The core unit's damage vs. buildings has been nerfed significantly. It's almost impossible to kill anything with it other than units now
@@googlygoo4575 you don't take out the scatters and duos themselves. You take out their ammo conveyors, and strafe their shots until they're empty. But yeah, taking the turrets out themselves would take way too long
It also helps to get rid of the coal power generation to the north
How do you control more than one unit
If you click and drag, you can make a box around your units and control all the ones inside. Alternatively, you can press Shift+G (on PC) which selects all your units.
