Profile

This was a lot of fun to build! I have an autistic son who is extremely interested in power lines, electrical transmission towers, and how the grid works. I decided to build a little game for him. When I finally showed it to him with bated breath, he rolled his eyes and said, “Is it 3D? I’ll only like it if it’s 3D!” So, I decided to polish it up and release it to the world!You get a 9x9 map with one power plant, three houses, and terrain obstacles, and the goal is to connect the power plant to the houses with an optimal path.Beneath the coat of paint, it’s a graph theory optimization puzzle, very nearly a Steiner-tree puzzle. Any two nodes within Chebyshev distance 2 are wired together auto
