How does your game represent "Power"?
Why do we have fire alarms? Is it because man cannot be trusted with the power of fire? Perhaps we, ourselves, in a lust for power created such dangers? It's really deep or something...

But no. This game's theme of power is really just because your Smoke Alarm has a low battery, i.e. low on power. Nothing more, nothing less... ... unless~

I counted 3 beeps. The controls were very responsive

This game is just so well done. The art is pleasing the sound control is perfect and the ability to go from 0% to 200% is just nice. The different sound to keep the game from having audio fatigue and the various little game to be made within just 2 controls. Also loved the lore. Just the right kind of Easter egg. Well done

there's poetry to be found in this quiet meditation on being too lazy to replace a battery.

Already waiting for the sequel

Maybe I didn't give it enough time, but at least you got something submitted! Must be too high-brained for my feeble mind to comprehend, or it was simply boring? Joke flew over my head, but I see the irony, maybe!

I tried speedrunning Lore mode and ended up with same-day shipping for a 24 pack of 9v batteries. Is it fair to say this game is life-saving?
