Great use of the theme and really fun game. I'd like to see more done with it in the future, it has a Mini Metro vibe and I think more buildings with different power demands / etc... could take this game far.
Nice pick for the music, I let the game sit in the background while my coil charged. I may have been missing something but the game felt very slow. Were the power plant and windmill the only things on the map? I finished by letting the game idle after my capacity was large enough.
If only the wind and hydroelectric generator are available on the map; I really have to solve the issue of speed, since to a certain extent I also felt it slow, I don’t know whether to complement it with a mini game, or speed up the times, but I will take your feedback into account, and thank you very much for seeing the future, I plan to complete it later, and even in a more distant future to do it with better graphics, maybe in 3d.
fun but not quite sure how easy it was to work out. Might have needed some in game tips to get me started. Liked the artstyle and music. Could see this working though with more time. Well done
Thank you very much for the feedback, I seriously take it into account to improve it soon!
Really creative approach to the theme, althought it would be cooler if the “city” grew over time (camera zooms out and there’s more buildings)
Good idea, I might include this in some kind of game mode in the future. Thank you!
Loved the art style and the soothing jazz for starters! Feels like a great first try, I'll expand the mechanic with more coils to manage at the same time. Great job!
Thanks for playing :D
good game
I love the graphics, but how on earth do you play? Instructions are very ambiguous. I think a tutorial level would do wonders here. I clicked around but eventually just gave up. Shame, I love the concept!
Nice to meet you, I’m the brother who doesn’t put tutorials in his games. (Just kidding, I’m sorry I wasn’t very clear, but I appreciate your attempt to play, I’ll add a tutorial in case it has a future)
very nice game! made sure to give you a high rating!
Amazing game ! :0
played the game for long time till i upgraded everything :D except the tower, it has endless upgrades e.e
I would suggest adding another button to reduce the size of the circle around the tower :3
overall, Epic game !
Awesome the winner of this JAM commenting on my game like that, thanks a lot dude, and I’ll be sure to add a range down button along with a max power cap.
This is superbly done and the concept was brilliant! The controls, graphics, and concept worked well enough that I didn't need to look at the game's description to know how to play. The visuals are cute and clear and the music adds a cozy atmosphere to the game. Amazing!
Very nice game.
Great graphics bro, I hope you add more to this game after the jam. It has a great potential and may grant you some revenue :)
I am very glad that you liked it, thanks for your suggestion, I hope to improve it.
I LOVE how clean the graphics are - they communicate well by themselves, and tied with the palette and fonts, it makes a cohesive visual style that really works for the mechanics. The little juicy touch of the energy bar shaking when discharging energy felt really polished.
I did get the "Bro" ending the first time, just to see what happened if I held down the energy button, love that it can't be spammed!
5-10 minutes later I got the good ending!
It's a really good game even though I struggled for a tiny bit with the energy.
It's highly addictive yet so simple. This game has a lot of potential. Hope you continue working on it after the jam.
I absolutely love the minimalist visuals, they go very well with the music and the theme! I had some trouble getting started, I wasn't sure what some of the symbols were supposed to do. After that, I was able to earn some money and distribute electricity, the pace got interesting. This is a very smart concept, great work! 😃
The day I have time to include a tutorial in the game, that day the world ends; thank you so much!
I got addicted to keeping my balance and keeping everything from reaching 0, great job
Interesting, if I win, I’ll turn your addiction into an in-game achievement.
I am shocked by how bad I am at managing electricity
...Okay I will se myself out
Oooh, nice. Balancing output over area is really fun. I wasn't sure if there was an end-game, but I got pretty far.
It became a bit like cookie clicker towards the end; it would be nice to upgrade power output as well. Good work! [Edit: retracted statement on power output, see reply]I’m glad you liked it, if there is an end and to achieve it all the energy bars in the cities must reach 100 simultaneously. ;D
Oh, dear, I figured out my mistake. For no reason at all, I assumed that the button was a static, singular payout. I, in fact, completely missed the fact that I could *hold the button down.* I couldn't reach the end because I was trying to dole out power by rapidly clicking the button, like it was some kind of clicking game. I don't know how I came to this conclusion.
After realizing this, I easily beat the game. It was just as fun the second time around!
so cool 🔥🔥🔥
