Lazar Inc
I set out to make the worlds most chaotic factory game and it turned out way better then I expected.
Goal : Make as much money as possible.
How to play :
- "R" rotates machine if you have them selected
- Drag and drop them from the hot bar
- Buy them in the catalog ( thats the weird brown rectangle )
- And ship them by hitting the laser into the yellow shipping dock.
Challenge don't explode!!!!

Great game. That splitter I'm holding will disintegrate up in 2 seconds if left alone, so I'm holding it myself while it does its job, since holding it seems to make it invincible.
I found a way to do it without using splitters, You need one doubler and a few mirrors at least. This is probably not the best way to do it, but it works pretty well. :))
Heck yea. That's so funny I never tried that and now im paying the price. Cool though. Thanks for sharing maybe ill fix something around that.
Hello
Ofc this game lacks polish and bugfixes to be playable, I have encountered several along my way. Thing is: I cannot figure out what the concentrator is supposed to do, and it seems to have just stopped working when I just got it so I couldnt try. Battery also stopped working randomly at about the same point. Also, I'm not really sure why the setup in the pic causes the splitter to explode, although I'm almost certain that the concentrator is supposed to help with that.
there is a limit to 10 doubles, then it becomes unstable, you use a combiner on a unstable laser and it becomes green and worth mor
Well OK but the condenser will randomly stop working sometimes which is very annoying.
I wanted to try and get a green laser back through my doubler loop to see if I could get it to do the same, but it bugged before I could...
Also, I have tried, the effect where after 10 doublings the laser becomes unstable is not the same as the one I have here. 10 doublings causes the laser to get destroyed after a little distance, in which case it wouldnt get farther than the first corner here.
This is something else entirely. This system is supposed to produce an infinity of superposed level 1 beams.
Not wrong there, I'm so impressed on how deeply you understand my jank lasers well done.
herm... what ?
From what I gathered, when the battery is outputting, it's input acts like a mirror and redirects the laser up. Dont ask me why, it is how it is
Small bug, tiles seem to occasionally move themselves? Not just when I place, but like I would place, it would be valid, but I witness it inching to the side then failing. Very annoying
Take $5
Dude you just fulfilled my dream. Like 5 bucks is litterally the first money I've ever made through all of this. Thank you. This is just the beggining.
Great game that get back to the basics of what makes a good game. Of course, more content is needed but I believe it's already planned and maybe something to keep track of progression if the game becomes complete. By the way, there's a glitch where you can use a mirror to split two lasers
Thats actually so crazy, I didn't run into that at all in testing but thats so sick. I kinda like it as a feature. Though its actually spliting two laser apart because they were so close together. Still its cool as heck. Thanks.
The reason is becuase you can get an incredibly small hitbox on the mirror, but going the opposite direction, it is really handy for placing things together while we dont have a tiny mirror, or OOO i just had a better Idea. Small mirror could be temporary, but in the future you could have a thing that lets you shrink individual items for a price.
Love the game, love the concept, and I had a few ideas for the future. You may have already had them but here they are.
Ideas:
Inverter it could invert them when the go through (I.e. A lazer goes through the upper half, and goes out the lower half.)
Bigger map Map expansions for money (probably already planned) A way to turn off or block the laser would be nice. Could also be like the crystal unlock idea. Or maybe different maps with different progress
Smol mirror Either keep the glitch where if you hit the corner of a mirror it goes the opposite direction or add tiny mirrors.
More challenging crystal unlock Maybe make it so you have to unlock the next lasers by powering the location with anough power per second. That would be cool.
What does the condenser do I may just be dumb but I do not know what makes the condenser different from the doubler. Speaking of condenser—A lense would be great to have. A wide device that focuses the laser on one point.
I believe letting you input from the splitter in every side would free up some room for creativity, I felt a bit limited by it.
Shrinker: Might be what the condenser is meant to do, but make the laser that goes through smaller so it is easier to manage.
Far future Idea(s) You could do prisms that split it into different colours, with different values or different max power levels
Unlocking future things by lasering objectives at a certain power (along with a sandbox mode with an option for infinit money or not.)
Very far future Different maps with different colour lasers that have special abilities that make them harder to use, but also give more money. Also those crystals spawn slower
Great Game Love to see where this is going, subscribe to Aiden_dev
needs some balancing, I tried to upload an image, but I just covered the whole map with doublers that split every once in a while, I ended up with $59289060.0 money per whatever
HOLY MOLY dude thank you so much. I already put you in my doc for being a sick guy spreading love on youtube but this is just wild. I actually loved reading that, because so many of those Ideas I already have and want to add soon.
And the condensor only works if you get a laser to be unstable by doubling 10 times. It will change color and move faster ( though you cant see that but it makes double the money as the pink one.)
I will actually have to keep coming back to this post because its got so much good ideas and content ontop of what I already dreamed up.
Cheers mate.

Heck yea
