Use of the limitation
Your batteries are faulty, and jumping and certain attacks can drain your power, you're on a quest for power to get new batteries. Also only used 5 colours in-game. Please note: had to re-upload because of game-breaking bug meaning you had to leave the game if you died and restart manually - apart from this my submission is identical to when first uploaded before the deadline.

Gosh darn it - I'm a sucker for anthropomorphized handhelds! I quite like the design and animations on your character. I think there could be a better balance of the theme and gameplay, like what takes energy and what gives energy, check out Chibi-robo Park Patrol :P Good job!
Really nice little game. I think your art was really well-done and looked nice and crisp. I liked how you implemented different kinds of attacks too, I came across the right-click attack by mistake but it looked really cool!
One thing I might like to see adjusted are the collision boxes on the shelves so either you could jump through to higher shelves or at least have a narrower box so you don't clip as hard when jumping off of a shelf. If you plan to continue any work on this, I think it would also be good to maybe add a score system too, just for bragging rights and whatnot. Like I said, it looks really visually polished, and with some work on the gameplay, it could definitely turn into something really neat! Great job.
Thanks for the feedback, and for playing my game! I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the notes also, this was my first game and, although I learnt a lot, I just wasn't able to implement some of the things to just add a little more polish to it. If I work on this game in the future, I'll be sure to add a score system as well as balance it a bit better amongst a few other tweaks. Once again, thanks for your lovely comment! :)
It looks like your fonts are alias/hinted, which means they aren't just white - they're white and a bunch of greys. Regardless the game is pretty, albeit hard! I'm not sure I understand how much my batteries charge from defeating an enemy or getting a chip. Regardless, good work!
Thanks for the feedback, and for playing! I really appreciate it.
I know there's a good few tweaks I just didn't have time to do, Think I overscoped a bit. I was so close to implementing the counter for collecting the cartridges, and it does log them in the backend I just couldn't figure out the ui element in time. :)
Your project seems really cool, but I can't launch it on windows, I get this error
I don't know anything about godot so I can't help you, sorry :/
Hi there! Thanks for letting me know about this, It's my first game and first time uploading so obviously I'd made a mistake - I have re-uploaded the files now so should prompt you with a ZIP Folder for windows instead of just the .exe - Again, thanks for letting me know otherwise all my time would've gone to waste!
