How does you game fit the theme?
Some synonyms for “not real” or “unreal” include "pretend" and "mock", which inspired this game. You're a sneaky slime that can absorb and then mock objects, to try and escape!

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote the code and made the art (I did follow some coding and animation tutorials for bits and pieces along the way)! I found other resources for music, sound effects, and fonts (credited on my page).

Very fun game. Movement feels good and the design is well done. Like how you added the item disintegration it really ups the difficulty level so you can just stay transformed and wait forever.

Developer

Thank you and thanks for playing / reviewing :D

Movement feels great and the art style was simple but very effective. It's a good game overall!

Developer

This was a cool game. Hard, bit cool. Good job. :)

Developer

Thank you! I'll have to tweak and balance a bit more, after playtesting for so long it's hard to judge the difficulty without a fresh set of eyes ahaha. Thanks for playing + reviewing!

Developer

Wow thank you that's really nice to hear!! Yeah, there's always room for improvement :) I hope to spend a bit of time cleaning up and tweaking things based on the feedback I got so far. Thank you for playing and for your comments/feedback!

I escaped as a slime!! I love seeing this cute little slime sliding on the floor, it's the best thing ever. This is so well done, it's clear to me that a lot of work went into this. I enjoyed this game so much, fantastically done!

Developer

Yay I'm happy to hear that! I was getting worried I might have made it too difficult and no one would escape lol! Thanks for your comments and feedback, I truly appreciate it :D

Awesome game! The theme interpretation was great! Maybe make the levels shorter or not as hard.

Developer

Thanks for playing and your feedback/comments! I think for next time I will try to balance it out a bit more (maybe give the slime a couple of lives so you can get shot a couple of times within a level).

Really nice game! Love the idea and mechanics! Its very fun! Only a volume slider I was missing as the sound was a bit high. But overall, awesome! :D Keep it up!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, I appreciate it! And yeah definitely next time I think I'll add some additional options to control the music / sound effects volume :) 

Submitted(+1)

The controls are really great and the platformer is a lot of fun. The gimmick that you can transform into other objects is great.

Developer

Thank you! I appreciate it & your comments :)

its a great concept

Developer

Thank you :D

Really simple concept with an excellent execution.

Some part could be a bit tedious but the little mid-air dash make them far more pleasant, this is a great addition

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, I was hoping that the dash would make it helpful to zip around faster :)

I think next time I would get more playtesters to test as I go to get a better idea of how to balance and make some parts less tedious. Thanks for playing + your feedback :)

Really good animations! don't know if the games hard or I'm trash

Developer(+1)

Thanks! You're right, I probably should have added a couple of levels in between the first and the second that eases you into it the game and mechanics. The second level is a bit of a jump from the first!

This game is a Gem in all of the unpolished games(including mine).

I loved pretty much everything about this game and it has a lot of potential!

Developer

Thank you, that's so kind! I appreciate it :)

This one is my favorite yet

Developer

Thank you for playing and your comments, I appreciate it!

Amazing idea, there's a lot of potetial to make cool puzzles!

Developer

Thank you! I agree it could make an interesting puzzle game. I'm not super great at level design so I'm not sure how good I would be at making puzzles aha but that's something I'd like to try in the future. thanks for playing and your review :)

Best one I played yet!
