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 🔥🔥🔥
