Stardew Valley.

It's 2D, co-op, not difficult or punishing, has few inputs, and is approachable mechanically.

Your description of vendor lock-in is obviously solvable by developers making a competing UI and workflow similar to the most popular software, and enabling new features under another menu. That said, there is obviously minimal interest in doing so.

This is UI. UI is not vendor lock-in. Lock-in costs users money to break out of, not developers.

I'll be honest, I was hoping it would work better on my mobile browser

Isn't the Factorio tutorial the first 1,000 hours? Ha

This is mine- I always wind up coming back to it.

I sell the extras for plat on the website warframe.market and buy the things I don't have on Warframe.market. Then I sell faction stuff on warframe.market and buy things on warframe.market. Then I grind relics and sell the extras on warframe.market and if I fail the rare parts I buy it on warframe.market.

So, lots of selling stuff I have and buying stuff I don't... On warframe.market because trade chat is a rip off.

And honestly I spend some cash too, whenever I have 75% off, but I don't think that it is strictly necessary.

My in-laws were here so I couldn't spend a lot of time at the PC, so I started Untitled Space Idler. I like number go up.

Same - my butt is cleaner but it's not worth the hassle of it being wet now. The dryer on mine isn't any good.

Wiggle around a bit to get cleaner. But I'm not a fan of ours.

Unnamed Space Idle. Not very patient though, unless you count the gameplay itself haha.

Slay the Spire co-op mod and AC6 are also recent plays for me but not strictly this week. I'm not sure that I'm gonna stick with AC6 though.

Sometimes I just like killing rooms of enemies by walking around. I like Warframe for that - specifically I have a Gyre build that goes pretty hard even through steel path. Nice brain off time.

Spire Together (I think that's the name) is a pretty good co-op mod as well

Yeah - my first thought was literally "that will look dirty quick"

I saw the original first. I like brotherhood better. Both have their merits. Hope that helps :)

Helpful, thanks

All my recommendations are already in your list

I like mentoring, but my skill set is deep and narrow. DM me and we'll see if they overlap and if I can match the time commitment that you are looking for, if you are interested. No fee.

Todo with ticket number

I haven't done it outside of SP for a while. I know Duviri gives partial credit. Maybe normal does?

You don't get partial credit for an incomplete extractor and the waves don't get easier, and the extractors don't scale very well. On SP I've been in a position with certain frames (Loki even with irradiating disarm) where I couldn't clear a single extractor.

I suppose this is true for defense objectives in general though - that one moon defense node on SP, for example - Stofler. And like the other person mentioned below for mobile defense.
