DEVELOPER'S NOTE
Chain Reactor was developed in ten days for the Gamedev.tv 2026 Game Jam. The theme was "Connections".
My idea was to explore connections between classic 1980's video games and see how they might be integrated into something feeling both new and old. Snake seemed the most fitting choice, a game about connecting pieces onto an ever-lengthening body, so it took center stage. Then I began thinking about synergistic connections between ability upgrades and connecting wormholes in Space. This game is the result.
