A downloadable game for Windows

In Circuit Breaker you play as a small electricity spark that is trying to escape its home chip due to a short. You travel along the inner cable structure, collect power and attempt to avoid glitches. The length of survival and the distance travelled are being rewarded with points.

This is the result of our first 48 hour GameJam.

It was a private Jam in a team of 4 people. We decided upfront that we want to make a Game in original Gameboy-style and the themes were randomly shuffled.

"Growth", "Glitch", "Running out of Power" and "Random". 

Although those tags didn't make a large appearance in the currently developed end-product so our result only got close to our original idea.
But hey, we made something. :)

These things are missing in the current version and we might add them in the future:
- pause menu in game
- procedural maze generation and endless running upwards
- fun
- actually saving highscores
- menu music without crackling noises
- more music tracks

It's just an .exe file you can run. Windows Defender might stop you from launching the first time, but it's not dangerous. 

(You can doublecheck with Windows Defender)
