I really enjoyed the promise! The story conveyed through the voice acting was goofy and funny. I feel like the energy reclamation mechanic could use some more work, sometimes if I moved my hands a bunch in the same spot it's hard to know where I need to start to get back on track, perhaps if the color of the hand path holograms changed based on how old they are. I died at the part with the wheels that need to be turned 180°, they seemed to move on their own from their own gravity. although minimal, the visuals were interesting and you made good use of the shaders, good work!

Thank you very much. I actually thought about changing colors over time or over spawned elements. i had one version where those energy-echos slowly turned orange. but that wasn't the solution as it made everything more confusing. maybe some more distinct random colors would have helped.
The wheels (as well as all the other inputs) are completely physics-based so yes, gravity pulls slightly on them. the have a definable resistance. the was a small problem with higher distance where the wheels started jumping around, so i went with the lower resistance.
