Energy Cycle

Get caught in the cycle; you'll never want to leave! I recently crafted a badge that gave me a coupon for 50% off Energy Cycle. I checked to find that the game cost $0.99 at base price, so for the first time in my life, I used a Steam coupon to get a game. It proved to be a great choice. I enjoy puzzle games, and Energy Cycle is definitely one that is worth playing. What would be a good experience from the gameplay alone is boosted by the presentation and options Energy Cycle has, making it a jewel among a sea of puzzle games. Pros: The graphics are very appealing. The nodes are light blue, dark blue, and green, all of which are distinct and easy on the eyes against the dark background. The transitions have other colors that are highly stylish. The music is fantastic. Rather than looping immediately when a track is finished, it moves into a new one, and will eventually cycle through s

This game reminded me of what was probably my first handheld video game… Merlin in 1978, and brings back a lot of happy memories. Yeah, video games have come a long way, but only recently have we begun to see a variety of fresh new expansions beyond the traditional shooter and racing genres. Sometimes You is already becoming well known for bringing out games with a novel approach to gaming, such as Retention and Energy Balance. Where those focused on photography and Math, Energy Cycle focuses on the Math of patterns and arrays… color synchronization. Energy Cycle consists of patterns of lights that when pressed, toggle on or off adjacent lights. It’s a definite mind-bender, and the ambient electronic themes add to the “mind music” effect. When I first saw the trailer it reminded me of my old Merlin. But, where Merlin only had a limited field of about 9 lights to work with, Energy Cycle

Gotta guess the right pattern, GOTTA GUESS THE RIGHT ONE!

As a game reviewer, Energy Cycle makes me want to tear my hair out... But in a joyous way. To understand why this is, understand that it's a cheap, well designed logic puzzle, with an aesthetic that I can safely say is fairly unique, that it supports colourblind folks very well (Often a problem in the games industry), and so, in a sense, there is nothing to talk about. Because it *works*, and it's cohesively designed. How, pray tell, are you going to write between 500 and 1000 words about that, eh? It works. It's got a neat aesthetic that I think should be experienced at least once. It costs less than a takeaway, and lasts you longer. It has digital cats. What the hell else do you want? Oh, cons? Yeah, one, and I expect it'll be obsolete before too long: The menu button in the top right isn't quite as visible as it could be. That's, er... It. If you somehow get tired of the 20 to 30 m

This game is like othello but harder since there are more than 2 colors. A good game to waste a few minutes on when you just want to relax.
