Really, really good game.
Great game, solid gameplay, fun music. I'm going to have to save this one to play more later.
Outside of LD time constraints, one thing that might be cool to add is being able to push conductive blocks around in order to make/break certain connections to solve a puzzle.

Thank you all for your kind and positive comments, I worked hard on putting this together and I'm glad you all enjoyed it!
Sorry for the lack of levels, this is my first jam and I'm still new to game dev all together. So I wanted to start with a simple concept and try and make something good rather than long, quality over quantity.
@jpv As for seeing something like this before, I personally have never although wouldn't surprise me if something of the sorts already existed.
@sebastian-caron I never planned on taking this any further but seeing as so many people like it, I will probably take some time to expand on it and hopefully add some more levels and mechanics.
@benbonk Thank you, the most difficult part of this for me was the level design, hopefully given some more time I can think of some harder levels.
@mbc Great ideas, I was thinking of adding things like conveyer belts and buttons as well.
@leyamez Thank you for the feedback, next time I jam I will try and get some more play testing feedback to try and refine controls and things.
