How does your game represent "Power"?
By using the full capacity of powerful messages!
And of course, to move your character you need to build power and release it at the right moment.
If you move too fast into solid objects you lose life power!

I really enjoyed the gameplay loop and the retro presentation! (It reminded me a lot of the Squid Jump minigame from Splatoon.)
I would like to see some checkpoints to make some falls less punishing. (I personally think there should be something once you reach the pink area.) As it stands, I had a blast, even if I couldn't finish it. :)
The design of the level seems very deliberately thought out. Shoutout to Finn!
Here's a vod of me playing your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2374242107?t=01h16m43s
The music was sick, really good stuff. Had a lot of fun playing this, but couldn't complete it, I don't usually like these type of games but this has me reconsider!
A whimsical game with unique music and character design that I enjoyed. The gameplay is familiar but nicely executed – the jumps seem well thought-out. I don’t think I can make it to the top but I had a good time trying
I personally really dig the music (although maybe something more methodical would fit the gameplay?), but I can't lie I did not make it to the top - it's just a bit too punishing to fall in some of those areas xD
really fun jump-king like with absolutely banging music, chrome ran out of memory midway through playing it so I'm gonna come back in a bit and try again <3
I'm not really into Fodian games, since I find losing progress over and over again frustrating, rather than motivating. I enjoyed my time with the game, but I knew I didn't have the patience for it after failing 5 times on the vertical bouncy section.
Love the art, but don't vibe with the music.
Again, this is obviously very solid, just not my tempo.
Always been a fan of jump king mechanics, so this resonated with me. Sound design was really good for a pico8 game (I have no idea how you pull that off), and the concept art was very inspired - great job, Finn!
The trajectory line was very welcome, and I liked how easy it was to differentiate oneway platforms from solid ones. Good game!
This is maddening, the music is wacky, and the game looks so good, and the gameplay is driving me crazy.
Excellent work.
lovely art style and I enjoyed playing with this mechanic. The music is great too
Really enjoyed this. I usually struggle with games, but this struck a great balance of punishing and rewarding.
Loved the art, sounds and music. The gameplay was pretty simple, but with the level design it was also great. Overall good game!
Really good job here. The Music was really cool and the overall vibe was neat! Definitely a good challenge and clenching-tension moments.
