After reviewing the comments, I won with a score of 685! It wasn't readily intuitive to me that there were certain combos of parts to avoid; I thought that any sort of electrical chain would be game over, so I had originally quit when I was getting a ton of electrical parts back to back. Maybe just clear that up in the dialogue after the first death? Also, the large black balls were a ton of fun, but it took like 10 seconds for everything to settle so I could place another part. I think at one point they did just never settle and I had to reload and restart.
A ton of fun though, and Gorb has my heart <3 Great job!
