Really cool concept! One critique is that many of the levels felt tedious as you had to just continue duplication and it only made little green slimes. Still a nice concept and a cool twist on 2048!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
In this game, you can merge slimes together to form later stages of slime. This fits the theme "stronger together", as we are implying that the slimes become stronger when merged together.
In addition, the controls for all slimes are tied together, while it is evident that the player can exercise strong control over the slimes.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?

Great puzzle game! Didn't play all of the levels for the sake of time (1-9 then took a peek at 15) but these are some great puzzles that really got my brain working lol The main critique I could give is maybe have a way to get to the higher levels of slimes faster. While some puzzles work really welly going up the whole series, I could see some puzzles getting a bit tedious as you have to make more and more of the higher levels. So maybe some plus squares give a higher level slime, but you could add an X square nearby to make it a bit harder to use.
Good puzzle game with nice visuals. When you can summon slime, some limit or punish for wasting would be great to makes harder.
i had so much fun with this game, i love how you have to control when slimes combine (unlike other games in the jam with similar mechanics), it made me think in nearly every level and surprised me every level. thank you
Some very neat mechanics! My only complaint is that the larger slimes consume the smaller ones. What would be better (in my opinion), is if they would just act as barriers, and only like-for-like slimes can combine. Other than that, great work!
(P.S. - you should advertise this more, it deserves more ratings)
This game is sso good. I love the puzzles and its so challenging. It made a lot of fun. nice work!
Fun game! I enjoyed the puzzles and how there was a high degree of lenience with the levels. It really helped to add to the fun and light hearted nature of the game. I also enjoyed the sense of discovery with making new slimes with existing slimes. Overall a fun experience!
Undo feature would be nice, as high-level silme being deleted by accident would be brutal. Still, it's a good puzzle game with a creative mechanic!
Got to lvl 13. Nice game with even nicer game design, very clever puzzles and cute graphics.
If you have time, check my game too: https://porthogamesbr.itch.io/three-little-friends
I loved this game! It was so much fun! The graphics worked really well and the puzzles were super fun. Well done on this one! By far one of my favourites.
It would be cool if you could check out my game too and give it a rating. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/925013
Really nice puzzle game.
Graphics, music and sound fit together very well.
The difficulty level increases a bit too fast for my taste.
Maybe some levels where you need less moves, but a bit more planning ahead earlier would be nice.
Completed level 8, didn't try level 9, just because it seems a bit overwhelming on first sight.
I really love this! The concept is great and you execute it very well. The puzzles are well thought out and I had fun trying to figure them out. One note is that a reference to the slime evolution while playing the stages would be helpful, I found myself forgetting it very quickly.
