A lot of things happening very quickly! there were new elements or something but i didn't have time to see what they were or what they did, just frantically clicking out the biggest machine I could afford to stop the bar reaching the top, I eventually got sucked into a gravity well... is that winning? i dunno what happened but i had fun!

Nice stuff! I loved the art and music. The idea is really neat and I think with some improvements it could be a really nice space/resources management game, unfortunately there's quite an easy exploit where if you hold down LMB and wait you can drop a component on top of another, infinitely stacking them, so no longer a space management challenge :D Eventually it was my frame rate that killed my run.
Having said that, I really enjoyed the game and the design is lovely :)

I had trouble understanding how to play, even after reading the tutorial. However after learning a bit more game after game this becomes fun.

Not too bad! I really enjoyed! It was very entertaining, now I unfortunatly was enveloped by a black hole, however, I really enjoyed sucking energy from a poor helpless beam of light. Very Epic! One of the best LD Jam games I've seen yet!

Really cool (or rather, really hot) game. The dynamic music was really neat, and added tension to whenever the temperature meter got too high/low. I'm not sure if this is actually the case, but the post-jam version feels much easier compared to the jam version, perhaps a bit too much so.

Cool jam game. Takes a few tries to understand how to be effective, but from then on it's fun balancing things. I liked the music, it matches the tempo of the game. Nice!

I dont understand at first, but when i play a few more times i get it, its really fun
However, I almost game up on your game before I noticed the TINY little prompt that told me to use the esc key to see the tutorial. It would be better if this graphic could be accessed from the start menu, rather than the pause menu.
Additionally, some sort of graphical cue is need so that the player knows to click the rings as opposed to clicking the machine ion to place a machine.
Just a thought!
Great Job!
