Besides IdleOn, does anyone know of any?

Finally got around to it and been playing Godot for an hour. I've been following Brackey's How to make a Video Game - Godot Beginner Tutorial and I'm about ~40 minutes in.

First impressions:

• Jesus christ that downloaded fast
• Holy crap that opened fast
• I love right out the gate it let me pick what renderer I want to use (alongside the pros and cons)

UI:

• The UI is a little bit confusing. Having the Script and 2D window be something at the top, but to the right of your traditional window dropdowns - is very jarring
• Mousewheel is a weird default: Control-scroll moves up and down, while regular scroll zooms in and out. I believe this is the opposite of most programs
• Modifying the collision points on TileSets was weird - I would modify one, then any new tile I click would get the new collision points, so I kept accidentally overwriting the collision points on tiles when I just wanted to select. But then I also couldn't copy a previous collision point.. so I had to like carefully plan out which tiles would have the same collision points because I couldn't copy them... I didn't want to get too specific on something minor, but that was frustrating.
• Overall, the UI is still less cluttered than Unity, so despite being a bit unintuitive and having some frustrations, it's worse but not a showstopper

"Let me make a game!" vibe:

• For reference, my base point here is Flash, with ActionScript. The dead simplicity of that framework let developers pump out awesome games in under a week
• Godot seems to have better support for 2D games than Unity. 2D feels "first class", and I'm not getting weird collider issues on corners like Unity does
• When following a tutorial (that is only 4 months old), I already ran into cases of UI changes and deprecated features. That's a big issue with Unity, and not something I look forwards to in Godot
• As far as vibe check goes, this one is also on par or slightly better than Unity

Overall Rating: Good enough

My world has not been shaken - but I'll use Godot for my next game. First impressions have Godot's editor on-par with Unity, but the real win is it comes without the clown show that is Unity Technologies itself. For the first time in a while I'm excited to get back into making games, I just need to make the time 🙃

Been trying to play Factorio with my gf and cousin, who both use ARM Macbooks. Via bitsearch I was able to find a couple Factorio torrents that include MacOS, but despite allegedly having seeders, I wasn't able to get the download to work (even with DHT enabled).

Does anyone know where I can find a working download link? To be clear, every torrent I found didn't actually have seeders when I put it into the torrent client. At least a few years ago, I was able to a cracked Factorio MacOS version.

(Windows version via Wine works on Linux, but not MacOS (even via Whisky). Installing Asahi is not an option, but an idea I entertained).
