Currents: Circuit Builder by MCRewind
So this is my game for LD39, Currents: Circuit Builder. It was originally supposed to be a compo game but I ended up doing kinda awful at the end and not making it in time. I spent about 4 hours post-compo and here it is.. a "game". My plan was to add levels and things but all I ended up getting done was a cool little circuit builder/editor, check it out if you want.
The game (editor) is pretty straight forward and most stuff is explained in an in game panel but ill explain it some here. By default you start in an editing mode where you can use the pencil and your given items to create a circuit. In a normal level you'd have an objective to complete and limited resources but for this I just gave you infinity. Once you've built what you want you can click start and the game will start running. It runs at 1 tick/second which is how fast your circuit will execute. With the wrench you can interact with certain objects such as the Diode, Light, and Switch.
At this point the game is just a little demo and doesn't completely follow the theme but have fun with it if you want :)



I haven't tested the mac or linux versions but right now they're just the same .jar files. If they dont work let me know and I'll update the .app and .sh

You have a solid base to make an actual game out of this concept and that's what a game jam is about after all :)
