Ludum Dare #51compo
Gridlock!
A game about balancing the electrical grid of a country.
Can you satisfy the growing electricity demands without turning to astronomical prices?
Made in the backseat of a car (and various other places) due to real life trying to interfere with Ludum Dare.
Created using Unity (game engine), Visual Studio Code (code), Bosca Ceoil (sounds), Audacity (sounds), and a small whiteboard (art).

I like the game! I like management games in General. I would love to be more free in buying your power plants and would see you stats. Now you have to play a few rounds to understand everything. I managed to build a lot of power plants but the price was high and people not satisfied :)
I like the concept of the game though and would love to see it in a little more accessable way :) I will follow you though to see you next games :D

The mechanics are quite great! I can see this becoming a mobile game.

Neat game! Works quite well. It is intuitive and challenging at the same time. The art is rough but fits with the sketchbook aesthetic.

Nice management game. It seems that the water power plant produces energy even without water.

Great job making this game while in a car. It's very creative.

Great game! It was fun and intuitive. It would be cool if some sources like Nuclear had reduced rates of adjustment, compared to gas and hydro. It's a good sign that it's easy to see ways to expand the game, it's a solid core experience. Congrats on the great submission :smiley:

At first I thought I will never understand this, but it is actually pretty plausible and pretty fun! Nice that there is a endless mode :smile: Also liked the doodles as background image


I couldn't understand if I was doing good or bad so I got confused after a while. Also I don't understand what the sounds mean.
