Hey Guys,
So for awhile now I have been working on developing a few games (namely for the Palm OS) but I will be supporting PPC soon enough. I wanted to shoot a few screen shots to this community to see what kind of reactions I get to the game.

There are 3 modes of play, Classic, Arcade, and Strategic.

Classic Mode: The playing field (grid) is filled with tiles, these tiles need to be rotated in order to make an unbroken connection from a charged outlet, to an uncharged bulb. Sound easy?
Once you form a connection, all tiles linked to that connection are destroyed. The lights linked to in a valid connection are turned on, while all lights not in the connection are turned off (if they were on previously) allowing you to reuse those lights. New blocks fall in to replace the "destroyed" blocks. To advance to the next level, simply turn on the number of bulbs in the To Go score.

Still sound easy? Oh did I mention you have a timer working against you that slowly turns off all of the outlets (plugs) on the left side, giving you less and less possible sources as the timer wears down until eventually you have none left and lose from lack of time? Oh, I didnt? Must have slipped my mind! Haha!

Arcade Mode: The bottom 3 rows of the playing field (grid) is filled with random blocks. Blocks slowy drop from the top of the playing field (ala tetris) and, like tetris you can rotate these blocks before droping them. Game concept is the same as Classic Mode, to try and turn on as many lights as you can by forming a link from plug to bulb, (however there is no timer) and you cannot rotate the blocks once you have droped them. The game is lost once there is no room for any new blocks to drop. (this shouldnt be too confusing, its the standard tetris style with the Electronia twist)

Gambit Mode: Similar to Classic Mode in gameplay, however, you _never_ advance to a "next" level. The purpose of this mode is to see how many lights you can turn on before you eventually (because you will eventually) run out of time. However, unlike Classic Mode, whenever you turn on two or more lights you gain more time (and if you gain enough time, some plugs that were turned off, will turn back on)






It plays somewhat like "Rocket Mania" but offers three modes of play and longer-gameplay possibilities.



If I get a good reaction - I will port it to PPC shortly after the Palm release. I will have a website to go to and what-not in the near future.
