Electrial

[b]5/10[/b] Physics puzzle game about throwing electric charges towards a target. [b]What is it:[/b] A precision throwing game with puzzle elements. In each level you have to throw a charged “ball” through an obstacle course and get as close as possible to a target. The ball always starts from the same spot, but you can choose if you throw a positive or negative charge, the angle at which you throw it, and the speed it starts at. There are static obstacles you have to avoid, and positive and negative charges that can alter the path and speed of the ball. The target is a circular spot, and you get up to 3 stars depending on how close you are to its center. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488726994 While you can perfectly control the angle, the speed is a fluctuating gauge that you must hit at the right time. This adds a non-puzzly mechanic to the game that not every puzzle lover appreciates. I often had to retry the same solution several times just to hit the right speed to get that third star. Fortunately, the angle and charge is kept between tries, so just trying to hit the right speed is needed. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488757841 However, the game isn't too difficult even with this precision timing mechanic. I got 3 stars on every level in less than 30 minutes. Only a few levels had me trying a few different strategies before I found one that works. But overall, it’s a nice little challenge, something different to enjoy between more thinky games. There are few levels, so they can all feel unique. I appreciate that the dev didn't go for a more mobile experience with hundreds of very similar levels, instead keeping it simple and focused. [b]How hard is it:[/b] Mostly Easy, ★☆☆☆☆. [b]How long is it:[/b] 25 levels, about an hour to perfect every level. [b]Level design:[/b] OK, but not impressive. Unique challenges, a few interesting layouts, but only a handful required more careful planning, most of them are just about finding the right angle and speed to follow the obvious path. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488726575 [b]Quality:[/b] Basic. Keyboard and mouse controls, but some things require a mouse click. Simple [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488725501]level select[/url], but always goes back to the first page. A few [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488725393]settings[/url]. No cloud saving, no achievements. Small, fast and responsive. A few bugs. [b]Worth the price:[/b] Wait for a discount. [b]Most positive aspect for me:[/b] Some interesting mechanics. [b]Most negative aspect for me:[/b] The timing aspect of hitting the right speed.
