How does your game represent "Power"?

With great power comes great responsibility.

Ahhh the art style of this game is cute and unique!

I somehow beat it! I see what you were going for with the pickup mechanic, but I think the quicktime events should've been a bit less frequent, but it got much more fun again when I realized you can just spam q-e-space-enter and you'll *usually* win the quicktime event. Love the style and the comedy!

This game oozes style, I really enjoyed the mix of a bit of 3D platforming.

Ah man, game is charming! Great art style and characters. Love that you can see the city fade off into the fog in the distance. Agree with others about the return key, but it also added a bit of flavor to the challenge

Very cool art direction, music an dialog, but I failed to understand how to play it. I just kept to do 3-4 inputs back to back, some of them quite far apart (looking at you Return key) and fail to ever throw anything. Otherwise good job!

Thanks for playing! Wish I had set aside more time to have others playtest as this is pretty much a unanimous feeling, but it is what it is😅 I find it helps to get your right hand ready to press enter right away, instead of moving your left hand back and forth between enter and the rest of the keys.

I love this! Reminds me of a warioware mini game or something especially with the sound effects when you're picking up trash. I wasn't sure how to get the trash in the incinerator, maybe my aim just sucks. The art style is so sick. I agree with the other commenter that enter being a quick time input was really tricky.

Felt very polished, I also think the zoom out when you're talking to the jumping guy is pretty.  I really like the mass of paper buildings in that shot.  Platforming was also satisfying, I liked the lil bigmode frog.  Got a lot done in the time limit!

Fun, wacky game! The quick-time event gameplay ties really well with the wacky-doodle camera, art style and bop music! Minor nitpick, but I found that the "Enter" key being one of the quick-time inputs threw off the otherwise great flow of the game as I had to move my hand off the mouse. Had some issues throwing the garbage into the incinerator, but otherwise this was a whole acid vibe
