This was great to play. Love the concept. You really nailed down a vibe with minimal assets, the music also helped tremendously. I think this is a top contender

How does your game represent "Power"?
The game is a power management game type of deal. You need to carefully consider spending your energy on actions in real time.
You could also read into the story presented and somehow find power as a theme in it - IF YOU ARE A NERD!

i like the aesthetic here, very cool. the music makes you feel lonely which is a good thing here. i like the idea behind the game, and its executed well. pretty good stuff!
What an amazing aesthetic you managed to create that I immediately get sucked in to, very well done!
really fun and atmospheric game, I did get softlocked in what I assume to be right before the end of the game, but I might have been missing something, was super fun to play though, amazing visuals and sound, and really interesting mechanics for the movement and visualization of the levels!
Beaaaautiful. Gosh the art, music, and sounds together are just so nice. I love the use of chromatic aberration to denote your health and the CRT shader.
Really striking visuals, especially with the scanner mechanic. I liked that chromatic aberration was the health indicator, it made it very tense to not know exactly how much power you had left. Took me a while to realize that you're really supposed to drift as much as possible with no input to conserve energy—probably should have realized sooner given the name of the game lol. Also never felt like I quite had a hang on how memory worked or affected my power level, but that didn't hamper my enjoyment. Great job!
Just played the game, it was good, i like how you added the echolation mechanic, it remind me of an !pad game that was an horror game, where you were blind and had to do noise in order to know your surrounding and avoiding monsters, it was also on a top view perspective
incredible art style and polish on visuals. love the idea and in general had very good time playing this game. It is an impressive game
Top marks for presentation, I was instantly immersed watching the intro. The scanning effect is very nicely done. As a couple others have said it can be easy to miss the controls but once you figure out how to get going you really stay going
Love the scanning mechanics u have here! I enjoyed playing it. Nice work.
Probably the most beautiful game I've seen in the jam, the atmosphere is unmatched -- super impressive !
Enjoyed the atmosphere very much, and while it took me a sec to figure out the scanner, it was fun to use.
Really beautiful ambiance. Really fantastic work on the scanner
Im a sucker for CRT shaders, and this is gorgeous looking and the gameplay is simple yet satisfying!
Nice job there!
I appreciate the mysterious tone and the overall ambience of the experience. Admittedly, I couldn't figure out how to activate the scanner. I basically just bounced around a bunch.
