ALTERNATING CURRENTS

---------------------------

HOW TO PLAY

  • Begin each level by tapping along the the correct BPM (shown by orange wave on the right)
  • Switch tracks to get to the finish by using W A S D  or Arrow Keys
  • Track switching is directional sensitive e.g. to move right, you must press D / right arrow when the sprite is over a dot with a connecting ring
  • Your rotation speed is based on the BPM you tap -- too fast and timing is much harder. Too slow and your power meter will decrease.

Double tap enter to skip death screen.

The final level is a bit of a gauntlet, fair warning.

CONTROLS

Switch Tracks................W A S D / Arrow Keys

FEATURES

You must continuously tap enter or space to the correct beats per minute, otherwise the power meter will deplete until the correct bpm is reached again.

To complete a level, capacitors must be charged by passing by them until all lights are on.

Resistors will overheat and cause circuit failure if passed when fully lit up 


Inductors alter the speed you travel along the track



KNOWN BUGS

  • Audio stream not optimized for web -- highly recommend download
  • Initial load time can be long on some machines due to size of sound files
  • Possible audio desync

Inspired by those arcade machines where the light spins around and you can never stop it on the big prize, only on a measly 6 tickets.
