Great idea, very satisfying to interact with. I love the tangled web of cables you end up with! Very tactile. How much time did you spend designing levels? Did you adjust the design at all in development or did you come up with the design beforehand and stick with it?

I locked in the design,  made the systems and art on Saturday. Then did level design art and bug fixing on Sunday.  I spent around 3 hours on the puzzle design, its quick to make puzzles if you start with a theme like "4 switches" or "I want the player to learn to use the iterations button".  The design came from imagining objects that linked together like chains -> cables -> switchboards -> sequence game!

Really neat! Makes your brain work similar to how it has to work when programming. It also makes you think in loops with the 'iterations" and limited space to do certain actions. Did have more struggle with the last level then I would have thought but I still thought it was really cool. I was so happy when I finished that one. Only thing I may change is that after a failed attempt your switch board isn't reset or an image of what you did, just a way to let the player know what they did and they can try to figure out why it didn't work. Amazing game though!!

Thanks for playing, Level 5 is challenging you have to break some assumptions  and make difficult connections. 
Defiantly would have added the undo if I had the time. I tried to create it but it just broke everything so needed to cut it before the deadline :(

I really enjoyed this game! It was engaging and had a neat ascetic! Although I had some framerate stability issues, I thought the experience made for a nice puzzle game.

Developer

What browser are you using, and do you have hardware acceleration on, if its turned off that could be the issue. anyway thanks for playing :)

I was able to beat the dev score on 4 and 5!

I dont know if that was what you actually thought was best, or just a motivating factor, but I enjoyed making sure I didnt do worse than that.  Fantastic game, I loved it!

I think that's the best part of system games. I can set the standard and people can look to find a more efficient route. After uploading the game I found a way to do Level 5 with 1000 More points.  Anyway thanks for giving my game a go :)

I like your solutions (sorry I deleted them its just so other players aren't tempted xD) hopefully itch implements a spoilers  mask like on discord
