Connection Restoration by BrahGold

[raw]
made by BrahGold for Ludum Dare 59 (COMPO)

A quick little game made with GameMaker. Restore the connection between the towers in these troubled times.

Controls are Space, W, and S as instructed. Use the mouse on the menu. Use Esc to close the game. No Audio. Estimated playtime 3-5 minutes.

I think it would have come out a lot better if I wasn't so rusty and also hadn't had such a busy weekend. (Won my Secrets of Strixhaven prerelease.) Still, it's fun to try and make something. I can't wait to be blown away by what some of you were able to complete in just 48 hours.

I really enjoyed this but its way too short.
A randomised endless version with high scores would work really well i think.

Nice start, with more towers to jump through and more lasers it could have beem really run, there is a concept there!

Nice simple game! Simple n easy to understand. Though the wave splitters don't do much and I wish they were.

Good job, it just needed some relaxing music and more challenges.

Very short, but interesting you made basically 2 entirely separate games. I think the side-scroller platformer was quite fun, and the talking signals when you split them were cute. It would have been great if you could have fit some more levels in. I made it to the end with 2 active signals :) I didn't find the orbit part of the game particularly challenging, but I assume you had some ideas there which you didn't get around to. All in all, it was a very condensed experience, so I enjoyed my few minutes, but would have loved to see a bit more content.

Good game but it's too short.Maybe adding a score system can allow players to try more times.

Cute little thing. Splitter mechanic was cool, would've loved to see more done with that if time allowed!

A very cool concept, but it's a little too short. Unfortunately, the time is too tight. Otherwise, I would have been looking forward to playing more content.
