Not a bad concept, although the execution could be more polished. It could maybe use some more limitations too like not being able to place the waypoints everywhere, because as it stands it’s a bit too easy to just systematically construct physically impossible back and forth delay tracks to let the factories send out their trains in waves essentially. It kind of reminds me of the notion of connecting points with lines in 2D without crossing them, except this is more about managing crossing times (the whole three utilities problem, which is sort of trivial by comparison).

I think I you made the trains slow to give the players chance to stop them. But I was waiting for most of the game. Looks really good though.

Nice concept. The “click to pause” may have bugged out for me, as I couldn’t get a train to stop twice in a row, but it didn’t stop long enough to let another train pass - unless this is intentional! The trains were also a tad slow so a fast foward option would be good! Otherwise, I had a lot of fun and enjoyed listening to the sound effects and music.

Sorry about the pausing - it has a small cooldown, but I didn't provide any feedback that trains could not be re-paused. My bad!

cool concept but a bit too slow, we laughed

Hiya, the idea is really cool and works well. I think the trains are a little slow, taking a bit of the fun away. But great job, the sounds are also sovely
