interesting, I'd like to see more levels though, as it is its not really challenging =/
Works, but esp. the third level leaves me in the rain as how to actually finish it.
I end up with an free electron at one end all the time ;)
application config error. talk to benw about this, i had the same probs with his but he fixed it somehow
You should have distributed the runtime DLLs yourself. I tried to download the package from microsoft, but it tried to overwrite my VS2005 dlls. I'm not risking breaking my VS installation over a game.
Yay, free radicals!
Fails to launch
Doesn't run.
I got an error about "side-to-side configuration". Weirdest error description I've ever seen. The EXE was only 20k, so I suspect it wasn't a working copy.
Missed some dll (possibly VC2008 runtime libs), couldn't run.
level 3 has a bug. I stack the 3 2-pair atoms then connect the single atom to one of the 2-pairs and the level is completed. If I connect the 2-pairs one by one the level doesn't complete. Anyways, the game is kinda cool but too short.
Didn't run upon initial effort.
More levels utilising the game mechanics is needed, with more neutrons perhaps?
Didn't run on my machine: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."
Doubt if that'll be any help though...
Didn't run :(
Sorry, couldn't run this in Vista.
So just to give a bit of background behind the chemistry of my game, here’s the page I used for research:
http://www.pslc.ws/mactest/radical.htm
Basically, the creation of the material we know as vinyl is done by a chain reaction of monomers into polymers (polymerization) initiated by a free radical initiator.
If you have shockwave then this short video (from the above page) will demonstrate the process effectively:
aka FreeRad
Whew gotta get this in!
3 level rushed release =/ more levels later!
found some free file hosting in the last minute, here’s the file:

(Thanks Jach for offering ftp space)
more to come later, probably my next free day: Wednesday.
Edit: If the game gives an error message like “This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.”, you may need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 redistributable package, which can be downloaded from:

Hmm the evening continues! Here’s the first screenshot from my LD10 entry:
hmm wonder what it is!
So far, Friday I worked until 5:30, there was a lame xmas picnic for lunch in which I ate mostly starch. Starch and cookie. My Maia picked me up and I had 1 hour to divert my eyes from 7 hours of videogame testing before 48 hours of videogame programming, the simple act of observing a lamp brings tears to my eyes.
I had a pre-dare snack involving a Tofurkey kielbasa, the best Saurkraut in the universe, and etc. As I delved into the reactorium on #ludumdare, mama maia was making me-a stuffed vegetables, mm mm. Proof!
Also my lack of desk brings this intangible workspace:
