Nice job! I'm guessing this is a project by your high-school students? If so, that's pretty good! Perhaps it's better to add some tutorial or message about the power-up on the game page? I didn't get it until I rage-quit and came back to this page lol!
I actually quite like the concept because it makes you plan your route through the maze strategically. I think it's a nice improvement on the maze genre and has a lot of potential as a concept with improved pacing etc. In fact I'll probably remember it after the jam is over!
Like the other person said, I would reload the game from the start of the maze because hearing that eerie sound and waiting again and again makes losing more frustrating, especially when I was just getting started.
Nice idea, has potential!
