Anyone tried it and have tips or tricks?

Just got it the other day on Steam during a sale and I'm really enjoying it. Almost at the end of the 1st chapter (150-ish cycles) Plays, looks, and sounds great. Soundtrack is excellent. Unsurprising, since its from the same guy that made the soundtrack for the criminally underrated WH40k Mechanicus. Getting your station humming efficiently with a happy populace is a great feeling.

A lot of folks were comparing it to Frostpunk, which I never played. It got a lot of negative reviews at release because of the difficulty, but they released a difficulty mod this week that allows tweaks. The game is extremely micromanage-y but I like that.

My only gripe is the tutorial is very dense, and it's easy to miss critical stuff if you are going in cold or trying to play fast. I had to restart the prologue twice because I fukked something up. At least it allows free saving.
