Blue Moon by Cirrial
You are Subject Six, and you awake in a tube in the Blue Moon laboratory.
You don't really know much other than that. Oh, and you can power things with your life. And, as can be predicted, you're all alone.
Instructions are in the game but if they prove a little vague, here's the list:
Left/Right - Move left or right
Up/Down - Transfer power up into yourself or down into devices
X - Jump
C - Use terminals and transit devices
This game is kind of a sibling game to my LD21 entry, Aphelion Incident. The setting is the same, but the mechanics aren't. Enjoy! I'd ramble on more like I did for previous LDs but I don't have as many excuses to make as usual :D

The graphics and animations give the character a very polished feel.
The only suggestion that comes to my mind is to increase the difficulty a bit after powering up the generator. Being able to infinitely recharge from elevators made the game a bit cheap after that. One alternative would be for the beams to turn back on after a short amount of time, so you can't just turn off half the beans, regen at an elevator way back, turn off another half of the beans, etc.
Congratz for the great game!
And who's the Black Character at the end of the game. (The one Subject #6 held hands with.)
