How does your game represent "Power"?
My game stages the eternal struggle between man and stubborn jars of pickles. To win this challenge the protagonist will have to pursue more power. He'll gain physical and magical powers, but in the end, the most effective ones will turn out to be the most genuine.

Genuinely the hardest I've laughed at a game since Lethal Company came out, the ending gag in particular was very clever. 10/10 mastapiece

Outta Outlets!Why have people not played this masterpiece? Totally unfair!
It's been a while since I had a genuine laugh from a game, well done!

Nuclear RageI have no words for this masterpiece of a game. I felt every emotion of being a man unable to open a pickle jar with the powers of power, anime, electricity and love. Also, my gpu is exploding for some reason!

Mr-Powerful-Man!This game surprised me big time. The control and graphics are a bit wonky, but the concept and the gameplay were really fun. I loved the jokes and specially the ending!

Bulbo's Belief SystemIncredible story! Why does the game change to tank controls though? There is some weird stuff with the UI showing to spam space even when not necessary but that was still an awesome experience!

Blaster Power (Big Mode Jam)Thank you for the review. I wanted to convey this: in the kitchen the husband is feigning confidence and has full control, but when out of sight of the wife he's anxious and scrambles to find more power, thus messier tank controls that make you bump into stuff.
Unfortunately I realize I've made them a bit too difficult to get used to. Next time I should find the time to playtest more!
What an absolute gem of a game! Unironically the funniest game I've seen in the jam. Love your sense of humor

Goblin TruckerThank you for the feedback, I just made a quick video showing how to move comfortably.
I have seen after your comment that the mouse turns the character when running around in "tank controls" mode, causing overturning with A and D.
I'll patch it out after the voting, in the meantime I suggest using only WASD when outside the kitchen :)
