Power Plant Tycoon
Power Plant Tycoon or how I learned to fear exponential growth and to love the nuclear power plant.
Power Plant Tycoon or hIltfegatltnpp is a game about a city which has to be supplied with power. For this trivial task, you've been chosen.
Your job is to build power plants. You can choose from three types:
- Solar Panel (Upgradeable): small power gain, small price.
- Coal power plant (Upgradeable): medium power gain, medium price.
- Nuclear power plant (Not Upgradeable): large power gain hand in hand with an expensive price.
H to enter highlight mode (in which you can build an upgrade power plants).
The city grows randomly every 24 seconds, somewhat exponential. If you don't know what it means, don't worry. You'll find out soon enough.
There is a day/night cycle in which the solar panels will stop working so watch out for that (if you wonder why it doesn't get dark: your predecessor had a small radiation leak...).
The PowerMeter on the right shows how well (or bad) you are doing.
You will loose if your PowerMeter is negative for 20 seconds.
That shall be everything. Good luck and enjoy!
Please tell me if you discover any bugs.
Sometimes it takes a little bit to go from size 1 to 2. This is because the growth is slightly randomized. Be happy while it lasts.
The game takes about 10 minutes to play trough once.

EDIT: ahh, I've found you added new link to HTML5 version. It works! :-)
I had the same experience as the above user. Seemed pretty simple at first just keeping up w nuclear, but there's an inevitable wall to go through regardless. I think the game, like many construction games, can be addicting with the addition of just 1 more element or building to spice it up. Nice job regardless.
