Powerlines is a game made in 48 hours for the Ludum Dare compo.
Distribute the energy to 3 different zones using sliders. You only have 100% to distribute over the three zones, so prioritize wisely. Buildings will emit icons to display their status. Keep your residents happy and they will pay their power bills on time. Use your profits to purchase upgrades to keep your consumers happy.
If you do not satisfy your customers, they will leave, and the town will fall into ruin. It is game over when all the buildings are abandoned.
Icon meanings:
Green, happy face: Receiving plenty of energy!
Red, angry face: Not receiving enough energy
Coin: Paid a power bill, +100$
Crossed out briefcase: Too many residential buildings and not enough commercial or industrial buildings, not enough jobs
Crossed out dollar sign: Too many commercial buildings and not enough residential buildings, not enough customers
Skull: Building abandoned
TNT: Building cleared using an upgrade
