This is my favourite game so far! An excellent amount of polish with sound sliders, pause menu, title etc., so satisfying to play, and great art! I think I made a factory that abuses the sprite limit to get infinite points over time without counting it down tho lmao, it was a blast to figure out
Awesome job, such a satisfying game, emergent gameplay with simple mechanics goes so far! Literally my only suggestion is an input buffer system maybe since sometimes I think my inputs get ignored if I tap them or something, but I learned to work around it, 20/20 perfect game
EDIT:
yep this strategy is very strong!
To fix this byob strategy (build your own battery) just make the starter bolt only orbit the center no matter what. Some other things I noticed are that the factories seem to break much much easier once the first one is broken, the spawn rate of factories goes down the more tiles you place (to fix they would need to attempt to replace if they are blocked). It would be cool if the play space increased gradually so that if you are really good you can keep building out even without the byob strat!
