I have lost too many hours of my life to this game, before finally moving on to Factorio. But then, the creator of Mindustry seems to have lost too many hours of their life to the Android Gradle plugin:
It's a really neat concept but definitely too deep for me. I bounced off of it pretty quick. I like tower defense games as a time waster and this needed too much thinking :)
I expected to like it because I managed to make it through most of Factorio and Shapez (haven't tried Shapez 2 yet). If you like tower defense games you should give this a try because it definitely offers something others don't!
I think the Wiki should have some more screen shots and video, even though they are on steam. It might be good to also have on wiki also. It might be confusing that it is free for download, but have to visit steam to see it and there it costs.

Why are you charging for the game on Steam and iOS when it is available for free?
The game is being charged for on Steam and iOS because it is one way of supporting Anuke, and it has features not available on the free versions, such as:
A map, mod, and schematic browser
Secure, seamless multiplayer using Steam Multiplayer (eliminates the need to port-forward)
Publicly visible servers at startup
Achievements
Stat tracking
Cloud saves and progress transfer using Steam
Steam community

Is this like an open source Factorio? Looks cool.

There's a link to Trello. Trello is so incredibly slow, even on the app. Does anyone wanna suggest a lighter alternative?
For projects that are on GitHub, there's the GitHub projects feature
