Really cool game! Very clever concept that  I thought was pretty well suited for the limitation. The gameplay was fun too! I think the game got a little laggy for me for some reason and the clickable areas to plug/unplug the wires didn't always sit where I expected, so I found it a little harder to control the power but really cool game!

Thank you for the kind comment! Yes, it seems that only the build/web version is having this lag so the gameplay runs around half the speed that was expected - unsure why this is. Always appreciate the feedback!

Cool idea, maybe there could be some more progression you would unlock with money or something. And maybe do some more frequent events, so the player has more to do.

Cool presentation and clever interpretation of theme and limitation!

Very visually pleasing, I could see this as one of those desktop taskbar incremental/management games 100%. Great job

Cool concept, seeing cities getting powered from the perspective of a power plant. The natural hazards affecting your output are a neat idea, and the animations showing up on the meter are a really nice touch. The UI and art are done really well, and watching the cities power up across the monitors was satisfying. It did feel like it took a bit for the natural disasters to kick in, but overall a very cool presentation.

I think this is a cool concept but would work better if the gameplay was more exiting. The art was amazing though.

While I really like the concept and the visuals, I think the game is a bit slow.

Thank you! Unfortunately there are some performance issues that cause the game to run quite slowly on the web. I appreciate the feedback!

A really unique concept! I loved the weather events, made the game so much more immersive

Your itch page was amazing, I gotta learn a thing or two from there!

Love the use of the limitation. The random weather events make it much more fun (and challenging)
