How does your game represent "Power"?
This game is based around the use of Exponents, making it a play on the phrase "To the Power of". For example, 2^5 is said as "2 to the Power of 5"

Nice first game, the interface could be made more intuitive.
Welcome to gamedev!
Thank you! The UI is definitely a complete mess lol Appreciate you checking it out and leaving feedback!
I tried for a while but couldn't work it out, like the visuals and seems like would be interesting, I just have no idea how it works. If you wanna give me an idea in a reply, I'd be happy to give it another go.
Hi - thanks for giving it a try! The UI is very, very far from intuitive and I ran out of time to make any in-game tutorial or explanation, so I'm not surprised that it was confusing! If you wanted to take another shot, you can find a detailed explanation on the game's page description. Cheers!
Sorry, couldn't quite figure it out
looks like a fun little puzzle to figure out but i couldn't quite get it. i wasn't sure what the lights in the top left meant (if anything) and i also wasn't sure what the goal of it was for a while. but still gj!
Thanks for trying it out! Definitely wished I had more time to make a much better UI and an in-game tutorial. If you want to see an in-depth explainer, I wrote one in the game's description (on its own itch.io page). Appreciate the feedback!
Neat little puzzle/educational game!
Took a few tries to understand how things worked, but managed to beat it in the end! The colors and patterns in the last round can get pretty confusing, especially with the timer!
Not sure if intended, but I discovered that each of the numbers 1-5 are always used, so I actually only needed to figure out 4/5 of the values, then the last one is obvious. That also makes it easier since there is only one possible answer for any result (except 1).. for example, if I see red^green = 4, then I know it can’t be 2^2 since red!=green, and thus it has to be 4^1.
Maybe it could be interesting if numbers could be reused, but then I guess we might need more tests..
Cool first entry - keep up the work, I hope you continue submitting to jams!
Thanks for taking the time to play it and leave feedback! I had planned to make higher levels feature higher numbers, more numbers, or a mix of numbers. But the way I went about structuring this one made that hard (one of the many lessons learned)! Greatly appreciate the feedback and encouragement!
