How does your game represent "Power"?
The game revolves around a small maintenance robot named Horti recharging giant lemon batteries in a futuristic greenhouse. Each level has one lemon battery that the player must charge in order to continue. The player must manage the total charge of the lemons, the speed the lemons are charging at, and the reserve power of the greenhouse all at once in order to succeed.

Feels so nice on a controller, really well done! The art is lovely and the levels are sufficiently challenging. Great sound effects as well, made the jumping that much more satisfying

Developer

Hell yeah!!! Happy you liked it :)

> Make a game about lemons

> It's incredibly juicy

Looks great, feels great, and is very fun to play. Loved that most of the levels had either multiple routes to manage the blocks or a very satisfying golden path. Marvelous job!

That was super cool! The color scheme was really great, the sprites and their squashing and stretching really helped added to the snappy controls, the music was super groovy for sure. Nice to make a game about getting in the groove of a loop and then throwing a wrench into it with the last few stages diverting your path and making you need to switch it up! Fun little game. :D

TYSM!!! I'm happy that you liked it :)

Groovy, beautiful, and one of the most fun games I've played in this game. I bet this is what it would feel like to play as one of the enemies in my game. There have been a handful of games that I really want to see turned into a full release, and this is one of them! Please keep developing this game after the jam! Great job :)

Developer

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE KIND WORDS!!! Comments like this mean the world to me. I'm planning to do a handful of updates after the jam fully ends, including fixes and some new levels, but I'd also like to rework the gameplay a bit to make it all a bit less repetitive :)

This game is really cute and fun. The levels are interesting, especially later in the game. The game isn't short, either!

Of course, no problem!

Super cute and addictive! Love the art style, the music and Horti's. The clock counting down remembered me of Evangelion and I felt very stressed, as it should be haha, Great job!

A Polished, Addictive Arcade Game—Market-Ready and Made by One Person! 🎮🔥

The soundtrack is varied and super groovy 🎶, the level design is carefully crafted and cohesive, and the controls feel smooth and responsive. Everything is polished to perfection, with a beautiful retro aesthetic and a limited color palette making the game easy to sight-read.

It’s dynamic, highly addictive, and always makes you want to push forward to the next level. And there are plenty of them, each just as well-designed! The progression is excellent, the difficulty perfectly tuned  ⚖, and everything—from enemy speed to energy loss—feels finely balanced. All of this in a game that’s easy to understand and pick up.

An outstanding entry. 👏 Huge congratulations, Joseph—I’m sold! 

Developer

Hell yeah! I'm really happy you liked the game! Your kind words mean a ton! :)

The art style is beautiful, and you guys did an incredible job of teaching new mechanics! 10/10

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Game legit is so polished, I could Imagine it being something I picked up on the Nintendo DS Store. Music is such a bop! Character is so cute, art style is absolutely amazing with how everything flows so well.  You managed to make everything POP even with the limited color pallet it's absolutely crazy you guys pulled this off so well! Hope you guys move forward with a release!

Developer

TYSM!!!

Horti might not be the clean power source we need. But it's the clean power source we deserve

Tons of charm! Love the idea and execution, well done!

This game really delivers on the presentation - I found the smooth and varied screen transitions helped the feel of the game a lot.  The moving and jumping is simple but executed cleanly

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!!!

Submitted(+1)

The presentation is fantastic. Everything from the music, graphic, to the little starting countdown is top notch. It does feel like a full release game.

Sadly, I find it too boring. I wish more things could be added to shake up the gameplay other than just tedious work of keeping everything powered up. Had to drop it at level 2.

Developer

Yeah, that's understandable, the gameplay was a bit of a struggle for me. Thank you so much for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

It is very well made with a ton of juice and style. I would love more of this!

Developer

TYSM!!!

this game reeks of professionalism, im quite jealous haha... its a very unique concept as well! im amazed at the amount of polish presented here! amazing work!!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! Originally this was actually a fnaf-styled game, but I switched it to an arcade platformer at the last minute. Because of that, I was basically just stuck working on polish for the first day or two while I brainstormed how to translate my original mechanics over. They got a bit butchered on the way, but I think what I came up with fits a platformer a lot better!

Submitted(+1)

Very well done. The menu, transitions, sound effects, and graphics are all incredibly well done. Took me a sec to figure out what I was supposed to be doing and a little trial and error to find out at enemy hits decreased power, but a very very solid entry.

Developer(+1)

I was planning on having a tutorial, but I was running really low on time and it sadly had to be cut down to just some text on the itch page. I'm really happy you liked the game though! Thanks for giving it a try!

This was so much fun!!! The gameplay loop is really solid and is really incentivizing to keep playing even if I lost! The art direction is really cute and I looove the purple, good work y'all! :]

Developer

Thanks, but I'm actually a solo dev as of right now lol. I appreciate your kind words :)
