How does your game fit the theme?
The inversion here lies in the protagonist status and subsequent focus on the slime, a character archetype often seen and treated as little more than grind-fodder in its usual appearances.

NNNNnoooooooo!!!!
(great submission, the art and writing is fantasti )
lovely! simple yet impressively whole
Interesting concept and fun! Amazing writing too!
Genius ending and story-writing, I actually left with goosebumps lol, the art and music is also phenomenal and only complements more to the world and narrative.
This was a great narrative experience. The writing was well done; I was really pulled into the world.
The lore of this game is too much for me to handle :(
nice game though, 45% completion
did not expect the jumpscare and then that tragic ending...
really liked it. i always dreamed about more games that would take a more scientific and/or humane approach to fantastic creatures and plants, and this is a small chunk of exactly that :) thank you!!
A truly tragic little tale. Refreshingly ecological approach to things. Would be interested to see a thorough cross section of a whole fantasy world examined through a lens like this.
I really loved every thing except the letters, I think it probably was too hard on my eyes after a long day, but then again the game is great, the slimy feel just made me go straight to the fields between the houses. Thanks for creating this game.
Wow this is such a great example of the story telling capabilities of video games, that was so impactful! I was really lulled into the slimes story lol.
I don't think I will be emotionally recovering
I didn't realize I could move the slime until after I finished reading the text, that is to say I really like the slime lore :). I hope they recover from their magic-induced illnesses soon...
