I really liked the game overall, definitely one of the best I've seen so far. I think it is a solid foundation to build upon (if you plan to) as moving around with the teleporting mechanic as well as steering the ship is already fun and obviously aesthetically the game is impressive. I say a foundation as the game currently lacks challenging things to do. Collecting crystals does not really put your skills to the test.

It would be great if in designing new challenges you could connect the two main mechanics of the game, teleporting and steering the ship, as currently they feel unrelated. Maybe something like boarding enemy ships using your teleportation device because getting too close otherwise would be dangerous (You can probably come up with better ideas for your game ;).

I think it is great you took the time to record a voiceover instead of doing only text but I would appreciate subtitles as the voice at times is too distorted to understand clearly.

You explored the theme only superficially as the ships energy is not really connected to anything but a win condition (well it also works as a resource but again the game lacks a challenge which makes resource management meaningful) but that does not matter too much as the main purpose of a theme is to inspire the creation of interesting games and Evelyn is definitely interesting!
