-About-
How to Build a Homemade Particle Accelerator is a game highly inspired by Balatro, made for the GMTK Game Jam 2025. The game involves the player building a contraption to accelerate a particle up to light speed and beyond.
-How to Play-
Purchase items from the shop by dragging them into either your inventory or the board. Hover over items and press "R" to rotate them. Earn money by directing particles into an energy converter. Use different items to gain as much speed as possible to achieve light speed.
