How does your game represent "Power"?
POWER is your health and your ammo. You are on a quest to find the Infinite Battery of POWER in this fast paced first-person platformer. POWER drains by air dashing, shooting, and existing.

There's a lot this game has going for it. The movement is really clean, sound effects are weighty and awesome, and voice acting is appropriately over-the-top. I was drawn to the most fun part of the game, which is running around and shooting enemies, but the ranking system and the power system both discourage using your gun, since you might as well just hold up your shield the whole time and dash. Trying to kill every enemy wasn't viable since power drains fast and there aren't many reliable ways of getting it back (enemies will miss you when you're going fast, so you have to stand still if you want to absorb from shield). I also felt like I was missing out on a lot of what the levels had to offer when going for A+. I realize this is a critical comment, especially for a jam game, but I want to stress that I really enjoyed this game. I thought it was fantastic, with incredible visuals, mechanics, and level design. I hope you keep working on it!
First off, thanks for playing, and we're glad you had a lot of fun! Second, we really appreciate the depth of analysis, positive and critical, and we're happy that you took the time to write up something so detailed for our game, it means a lot. And I'm sure that if and when POWERMAN returns, he'll be better than ever :)
This was incredible. I really liked the movement, and the level design. I even got A+ on everything. I just want more of this.
Voice acting and presentation was great, too. I think this is a good base for something larger.
