A very tight little puzzler! I think the progression of unlocking new characters and mechanics was clever and well paced. The different characters also all brought something interesting and new. I caught myself tending to stick with the little first person guy cause I found the camera control they gave me helpful for navigating. I also generally preferred the in world puzzles over the minigame puzzles, although those were quite good too. I was surprised how much the inverted tetris puzzle pieces came together for me despite how complicated they appeared at first. I would be very interested to see this game after it gets an environmental design pass, as even with the greyboxing the environments still generally tended to feel somewhat distinct. I think this is a really solid foundation you could build a full product out of! Great work overall, very solid entry!

How does your game represent "Power"?
While traversing through the old unit, you need to establish electrical power through many different ways to advance! The magical power at the end of the unit is a good motivator for the main characters as well! (we also recommend visiting our store page for warnings about softlocks :>)

thank you for playing! we had a couple more Roy puzzles in the chamber, but sadly we had to cut it out due to the deadline :(( in the full version we're gonna put all the characters to their fullest potential!! do ya have a favorite character?? :OO
it may be canon.. we shall see... we didn't really plan ahead that much, but within the full release we'll definitely expand on it :)) thank you for playing, and im honored to have been interviewed! keep up the great work!!
omg thank you so much!! we were looking into doing a full release after the game jam where we kinda build the game from the groun up (yknow how gamejam code goes), we hope youll play it once that comes around!! we appreciate your kind words!! (P.S. blink was super fun as well :3) do you have a favorite character?? :)
thank you!! your words mean a lot to us! do you have a favorite character in mind? :0
Thanks for the tip! I made it a bit further but got stuck after entering the credentials, since I somehow clipped two of the characters through the steam by going into first-person mode, and I wasn't able to get back. Skipping again with the zero key put me at a completely black screen. I'll try again tomorrow and try not to break it again (:
thank you! we didnt have enough time to polish the game visually, but we aim to make it look better in the full release! thank you for your words!
I guess I can't really elaborate without spoilers, so other readers beware!
After the room with Roy, the following puzzle area seemed bugged in a couple ways... The wall south of the first lever and wall opposite it could just be walked through (I only tried AFTER flipping the lever, wasn't sure if it was always that way). There was a destructible wall near a leaking pipe I was able to see but simply could not punch nor shoot, no matter where I tried. Eventually I found I could grab a fuse through the northernmost room by clicking over a wall from the hanging gear room, but it still couldn't help me beat the room, even out of sequence. :(
SPOILERS DONT READ IF YOU HAVENT PLAYED:
so the ospulvis punch is a little iffy... to fix it i think you need to hover your cursor over it then punch! that should fix it! if you wanna skip back to where you were at use the 0 key to skip the rooms until youre back to where youre at! i promise you the ending is worth it :3 i hope you can finish it!!
