That’s what I thought too, the music is great in combination with the lighting process. The victory sound is also in the same scale.

This is a basic but very fun puzzle game- it’s also accessible because anyone can just click around enough and they’ll get it. I like the randomly generated aspect (played through it 3-4 times before I came to comment haha). The game flow is pretty well done, too.

[...] You are supposed to restore power to the city with one really important click! The game is minimal in that only one click is required per level, and [...] Go to Source [...]

Thanks guys.
@ Ron: thanks, they are indeed all notes from a scale in the same key and mood as the background music :)

shalin, the sound design is amazing! the sounds the houses make when they light up sound like they’re part of the background music.

Really cool music and design. I liked it.

It’s a far too easy though… It’s not very much of challenge to find out how it works, would have liked some more puzzling.

I do very like the idea but it seems there’s a single simple rule which means you don’t need to do any tracing or figuring out and just need to highlight pylons. I wont mention it here as it might be a spoiler for peeps that haven’t figured it out but it does mean that unless there’s an additional gameplay element added it’ll always be very easy regardless of level complexity.
