gameplay is godlike, just wow! This was more fun that it had any right to be, just amazing! I like the art style, the witty nature of it and just everything was so fun!
Please make a post-jam release with at least some saving mechanics, i lost at day 8 and just dont have it in me to restart. Solid!

How does your game represent "Power"?
Power of Attorney, you know that legal concept about how lawyers have magic powers.

Really nails down the core fun of jam games, which is something that works far better than it has any right to, and also lets you beat the hell out of people until they slam into the skybox. Great work.

With Great Power...Very silly and to echo what others have said, impressive as hell that you guys were able to get the recognition to be as strong as it is in the time frame we had ON TOP of the rest of the gameplay available. Massive kudos!
The main issue I had was just difficulty navigating, I felt like I got caught on the desk a lot when I was trying to get to my chair. Probably just a skill issue on my end XD

Grid LockGreat game! The concept of writing contracts with some having special powers is really unique, and I only ran into issues with it giving the wrong drawing once. Juggling the drawing and trying to get rid of thieves was a lot of fun. I do wish you were brought back to your current day instead of the first day when you lose, but overall great work!

Power BotThanks so much for giving it a shot! That is a fair suggestion, and definitely one I would have considered a lot more if it didn't require us to create a save / load system lmao, unfortunately no time for that. But yes on a post jam patch version I would be very receptive to having checkpoints! And I'm glad to hear the gesture recognition system worked well, it definitely took some wrangling and still has a long ways to go. That stressful juggling of different tasks was really the inciting vision for this game, so hearing that it came through in the end is great!
Very unique gameplay, unfortunately I didn't get around to using any of the magic powers. :( I don't know if it was the image detection or my incompetence. It's impressive that you implementing the recognition, though in the time that we had. After a little while, I think the gameplay gets repetitive, but that could also be the fact that I didn't actually use my magical powers... great submission!

Aether Core IndustriesThanks for giving it a shot! Thats a shame you didn't get to use the power documents, those are a big part of the theme! The gesture recognition is far from perfect yeah, you gotta really try to mimic the way it's drawn on the logo. I do agree that the office could change a bit more as you go on, I think more upgrades and client variants would help the gameplay expand a bit more. That was a fun stream though thanks for giving it a play!
Wow this is unique! I loved stapling people in the face and was so pleasantly surprised by the drawing mechanic! I only had time to do one run but I'm definitely coming back to try and unlock all the upgrades. Very funny concept and great execution, well done

Rocket Rally RacingThanks! The stapling was a very early idea with this as we felt it kinda pushed the power element, we couldn't make a game about the theme of power and have you gently hand the clients their documents lol. This is actually the reigned in version, originally handing clients documents was going to be what sends them flying across the room, but we decided to reserve that for the bat. Good luck on your future runs though! Word of wisdom if you get stuck, dismissal is VERY powerful. Like arguably too powerful lol. Thanks for playing!
THIS IS MY FAVORITE ONE SO FAR! im 100% gonna play this one in my free time, i got addicted instantly LOL amazing work!!

Anemia AmpereThanks so much! Yeah it is hard to find the difficulty just right, I found myself wishing I could create optional difficulties or a sandbox kinda mode where you can just make documents and goof around. A hard mode where the qoutas are all tripled or something could be interesting too! Although that would probably be impossible as of right now haha. But yeah I'm glad to hear you had some fun with it!
