This was an interesting idea for a game and a creative take on the theme. I'd be curious to know what the best strategy is - I think you basically want to waste as little water as possible while balancing the distribution as evenly as possible, which I think means there's probably an optimal movement pattern to achieve that. Anyways, here was my playthrough, I got 3:52.

Thanks, I saw your video! To be honest I'm not sure what the best strategy is. The temperatures go up quicker and quicker as time goes by, so there's a hard limit to how long you can hold out anyway!

Simple, but effective. I like it. At first I felt like it was too easy, but then I found myself with all of the reactors over 200 and struggling to cool them down! Overall, this is a fun little game.

Cool concept, the turbine could be a bit faster though

Cool and interesting particle game, but very frustrating.
