- Can't Live Without Electricity Part 1 - believe it or not, I actually still play puzzle games in my free time, I love them that much! It's a fun electrical grid optimizing game, reminds me of Mini Motorways, but more tactical, and less real-time.

Hello, I am the developer of "Can't Live Without Electricity". I really enjoyed watching this video. Thank you so much for playing this game!
Real DEV?
Your game looks like lots of fun
I enjoy your game. I was wondering have you considered a multiplayer mode to the game? I theorize that there could be a lot of fun and strategy integrated to a competitive PvP version to the game.
@@gclasse0 XD who are you going to play it with?
@@sdaniaalwith you, it'll be friend based matchmaking
Pythagoras pogging was absolute peak comedy, congrats to Dan!
But a lie, because sqrt(2) != 1.5
@@SuperMarioOddity Yeah but don't tell that to Pythagoras (especially if you mention how it's irrational) because he will actually drown you.
@@SuperMarioOddity this is a game about civil engineering, to engineers sqrt2 = 1.5
I bet you think pi isn't 3
Ofc, and g = 10.
Oh this is the kind of puzzler I could watch forever!
The similarities to Mini Motorways are evident, but this seems to have more interesting maps, and a more purposeful goal than just ''it will eventually fail, but make it fail later''
I 100% support more videos of this
Yeah! Mini Motorways was real time, and was a lot more stress inducing whereas this one is geared more towards a puzzle feeling.
I like how you collectively forgot Mini Metro XD
how dare you forget mini metro
It's better than Mini Motorways in a lot of ways because it's turn based so you can make it a lot harder. For example here, the houses will just spawn on top of wires if there is not enough space. In mini motorways, that doesn't happen so you just use roads on empty tiles to prevent houses spawning in bad locations.
@@doommaker4000 because this game is not that similar to mini metro
Reminds me a lot of mini motorways but still unique which is nice
mini motorways but chill
Mini motorways but you have all the time in the world to think and plan through the spaghetti
Terra nil but make it mini motorways.
yep its very much like that and kinda the game tyler made vids with trains
Yeah, and he even knew, and linked it at the end!
Oh my god that is the most unbelievably satisfying logistics simulator I've seen in a long long time. And I love how, unlike similar games like Mini Motorways, there's no time pressure and no penalty for deleting something you've made and remaking it better. It's pure thinking and optimization, and as long as you can find something that works for that round you can progress and optimize it later.
why has no one noticed that famed transfic author Rebecca "SaffronDragon" Hogan is just randomly in the comments section of a puzzle game
@@calliopehu1924 *throws down smokebomb, vanishes*
This game feels way more fun and much less tense then other games of it's type, and I believe I've narrowed my feelings down to three main reasons.
The first is how this game handles space. Pipes being plentiful, and being allowed to intersect combined with vast open spaces between islands allows you to place a single pipe, and suddenly through clever engineering, houses across the map are connected to each other. Also, wires can go diagonally, which allows for quite a few of the helpful fixes shown in this very video
The second is this game actually has an ending that isn't you eventually failing. It isn't endless is what I mean, and that's actually a huge plus, it makes it easier for the game to create a feeling of accomplishment at the end
The third is there is no time pressure. The game moves at the pace the player is comfortable with, allowing you to really think through your options without feeling at all cramped on time.
And this is all without seeing generators and jumpers, which I would guess would save you in an otherwise impossible situation, which would again take off a little pressure without compromising on the difficulty of the puzzles
I also feel like it's improved by allowing you to easily change past choices - these games always feel a bit unfair when new changes screw over old changes you made, that if you'd just known they were coming you could've fixed. Not having that "you didn't know about this beforehand" penalty takes so much of the pain of RNG away, and doesn't make you feel anxious that every move you take may only allow rngesus to screw you over the next turn.
having a completion state is really the big winner, mini motorways is a fantastic game but i always feel like i'm just building up to nothing, especially considering my high scores will never be of note compared to everyone else's. being able to just start and finish a game is much appreciated, even if it might seem like 'less content' somehow.
I predict jumpers are like the numbered pads that are like portals
@@pascalthecurator3368 yeah I've always disliked infinite expansion games like that for that reason
@@ju-yuanchueh8444 from the graphic I was thinking they allow you to cross over two wires 🤔
I love the infinite undos. Pure optimization without the "technical debt" aspect of mini motorways
What’s great about this game is that it doesn’t allow for blockage of new houses or business unlike Mini Motorways. You can’t just use the wires to block off areas you don’t want houses built since they build on top of existing wires, which is quite cool in my opinion adding to the challenge.
Would be fun to see more videos on this game!
2:52 actually, pythag is crying in the corner, murmuring about how it's about 1.41421356237 and not 1.5.
It's a traumatic subject for him, considering when someone showed him that the number is irrational, I'm pretty sure he drowned the guy. I can't imagine what he would do to the person who said it was actually 1.5
He would try to prove it was actually 1.5 bc that's how much he hates irrationals
@@artjack59 well I'm pretty sure he thought there was a "perfect ratio" that would perfectly describe root 2. I'm pretty sure his cult worshiped it. So saying the "perfect ratio" is 3:2 should be just as bad, if not more insulting than saying it doesn't exist.
This game looks really cool, its like mini motorways but more relaxing because there isn't any time pressure
I'm not very big on puzzle/optimization games, but this looks super interesting and is quite cheap, so I'll buy it and try myself. Thanks for a good recommendation, Tyler!
Hope you enjoy it :)
@@weefuriousgamer7373 i am, it's as fun as I expected it
Mini Motorways' spiritual successor. God, I'd love to see more of this
This is a nice, relaxing looking game, and you being the master of bridge shaving is perfect for finding all of the tiny wire optimizations needed to deal with all of the terrible spawns. I would love to see more of this on the channel!
Would love to see more of this game! It definitely has the mini metro/motorways aesthetic but without the stress of the timer
Definitely want to see more of this, gets you a lot of opportunity to explain your thought process which is always the most entertaining parts of your videos
I absolutely adore this game and would love to see more!
You have to make more of this. How can I not find any other videos about this game, I could watch this all day.
Absolutely love the dynamic of perfecting the situation until the next round ruins it without worrying about getting punished for bad luck. Amazing game, would love to watch more
I absolutely LOVE this puzzle game, hell yeah i wanna see more. I also appreciate the clarity of how the pipes are annotated, with the ring not obstructing the house at all
This looks like one of those games where everything starts simple, but you eventually get to the point where the only reasonable strategy is to just start completely over will all the resources you've accrued.
This was a very fun watch! Definitely do more. I very much enjoyed your mini motorways series and this game feels like that
This game is super satisfying to watch, and I would love to watch you play more of this game!
this was a really good video! the commentary plus satisfying beeps and boops from doing stuff in the game was great
Shoutout to the editor for the zooms. Makes the video so much more watchable!
Love the vids tyler, keep up with the schedule!
The satisfaction is amazing, please keep uploading this game, its so relaxing!
This game was a lot of fun to watch! And it seems like it has a ton of content potential, hope you make a lot more of these!
100% please make more videos on this game! Very fun to watch!
I'm so happy you showed me this game. I loved Mini-Motorways... but there was just so much wrong with it.
The time pressure. The anxiety that came from committing to a road only for it to become an issue later.
And most importantly... the inherent unfairness of Mini-Motorways is gone! That feeling when a business is placed in the most inconvenient place... or a house spawned in an impossible position.
I have only played for a few hours so far, but not a single scenario has felt unfair.
I found myself opening Mini-Motoways... only to close it soon after because no scenario felt fun... but this game keeps me pressing next turn for hours on end!
Loved this one, hope to see more of it!
this is definitely a series I would love to watch more of!
tbh i dont always watch your mini motorways videos but i watched this all the way throuth and enjoyed every second. maybe because it is just visually so much simpler i could understand right away or maybe because you did a good job explaining throughoutl.
reminds me a ton of mini-motorway and the editing makes this stuff extremely nice to watch.
Excited to see more of it! ❤
Please do more, really enjoying this series.
Love this, can't wait to see more!
This was so good! I could watch an infinite amount of these!
Super great little game, would definitely watch more of this!
Definitely play more of this game, very enjoyable
Woah, I really appreciate the amount of editing in this episode. Make it easy too see what's going on and sometime giving the overview of the progress.
lovely game, glad you showed on a vid, just picked up and it's great on the Deck, running out the box and the clean look is really suited to smaller screen. camera controls perfect too which often where these games fail on the handheld
I would like more of this, amazing content
This is extremely satisfying. I’d love to watch more
I love this game (i like most puzzle games (And that is propably the reason watch your videos)) please do more of this game
i look forward to next episode of this game!! its very relaxing and optimization games r a lot of fun to see!
That was the most satisfying video ive ever seen. Please do more on this game!
Great video as always! Would love to see more! 😃👍
this game has captivated my interest! please play more of it!
I loved the mini motorways series you did and this obviously has a lot of influence. I hope you keep posting a few of these vids in the future.
please do more, I like when you play puzzle games where you can optimize, seems like your jam.
Keep up the great content.
Would love to see more of this game!
This looks very cool! Well played!!
Instant fan of this one, would love more videos!

I have not commented on almost any videos, but I must say that I would love to see more of this.
10/10 very satisfying. Would watch again.
I love this, and I'd love if you keep making videos of this game
Please keep making videos of the game. This was very satisfying
This was really cool, would love to see more of it Tyler.
Also you should look at backpack hero again, it’s gone through a lot of new updates and the curse system has gone through 2 different changes.
I would love to see more of this game
Very cool game! Would love to see more!
This game is amazing! Please continue making let's plays of it.
Hey you convinced me to buy this game, and wow it’s a blast.
I had some SERIOUSLY tough finds in some of these puzzles. You make it look so easy in your videos!
The editor really is making this 5 star video into a 10 star
Love it honestly. Down for more
This was wonderful. I enjoyed watching your video. 😇
Feels like laying out a PCB. Fun video!
great vid! really entertaining!
I love this game! please do more videos on it! also the pythagoras joke was pretty funny 🤣🤣
That poor penguin was turned into a cyborg.
This game was very satisfying to watch, thanks for sharing it with us!
the vampire survivors loot box joke was hilarious, ty dan
Fun to watch definitely make more
This game seems pretty fun to watch, so definitely add that to your YT video backlog
I'm interested in this series! I think its a less stressful game than mini motorways and will be fun to watch!
Isn't there a mechanic where leaders may just unite peacefully, and there's a whole diplomatic minigame to see who takes charge?
This game is a great watch. I'd love more content for this.
The pipes very much remind me of creeper world, especially the maps where you try to cover the map in anticreeper in a puzzle.
Definitely deserves more than 5k likes. Id love to olay this game vs mini motorways.
Would love to see more of us in the future this was really cool!!
Can’t believe this seems to be the only video made on this game. Hope it gets more popular
This is mini motorways, but better, way better. I like this.
I said before in the battle for top 1 Poly Bridge 3 video, but seeing you optimize stuff is really fun.
his game looks fun, i hope you keep playing
Great game, can't wait for Part 2!
I really enjoy these kinds of puzzles
this is so fun and satisfying to watch
I came up with a game idea based on this and mini motorways:
Grid based "piping" systems where you have to connect different colors. On one side of the board is roads (doesn't have to be roads) with their respective colors, and on the other are pipes, with their own colors. You can make tunnels for roads, but they will then go into the pipe playfield, and vice versa
would definitely watch more
Would love to see more
This was so satisfying to watch more pls
It reminds me of the Mini Metro and Mini Motorways games but with more thinking and no time pressures.
Thanks for sharing it!
Great game. More please
That was surprisingly mesmerizing!
Thanks for the content!
This is like mini motorway but less overwhelming because there are no traffic jams and intersections to also worry about, I definitely prefer this game more, please do more on this.
That was actually really cool to watch for how simple it is.
Would like to see more of this.
This game is unbelievably satisfying and fun, i cant wait for more!
This is just a more enjoyable and less stressful Mini Motorways lmao. 10/10, would watch again
P.S wonderful work Editor!
This looks pretty cool. Obviously has inspiration from that one car management game but has a very tycoon feel to it. Don't normally play the games you have on here but might give this one a shot
Make more of this game!!
Yes, please keep playing, that was MetroMotorways but relaxing :o
