Really nice idea and pretty fun, but I feel like I'm being screwed by rng a bit too much. If the npc decided to hover at my position the moment I used my dash I can't really do much about it than just tank the damage and hope he doesn't kill me instantly. Really nice result tho for the time you had.

Wow really good execution! Love the struggle of the slime

Slime games are my favorite ^^

Loved the little hero animations and music!

Come try out little gobo game if you find the time :)

Very fun, the type of game that gets even more fun with more content, like upgrades, different type of players coming in, etc. Still, really good jam entry!

Submitted

Great, well balanced game, well done!

Submitted

Love this game! Nothing much to complain, you did a great job!

Like the idea a lot. Simple and I like the upgrade system. I would love to see the enemies with some more AI and variety and if they happened to get to me, sometimes I'd take 3 damage because of their pathing. Would be interesting to add like knockback when they hit you to give you a reprieve. Really cool game!

Submitted

This is awesome, such a great play on the theme. :D Thanks for a fun experience.

Nice concept, works great! Love the aesthetics. The gameplay is simple, but really fun. The upgrades are interesting. Unfortunately, I pressed Q per accident and reset my progression. Still, I enjoyed it!

LOVE the presentation, can tell you guys had a lot of fun with this. Animations felt super great and I was smiling throughout. Nice work!

Wow, I liked the game a lot! Really nice work here!

Cool game!

Really nice work, i found super interesting the association of the two main mecchanics, placing the slime in a corner is an ez win way to scale the "waves", nice entry! Well done! :)

Submitted

I enjoyed the game a lot. Trying different bonus associations was very fun. I'd like to see how the game looks like with more skills than the slam. The best strategy i found was to stay in a corner. Very nice entry, congrats !

Loved the game. Really loved the risk-reward style of the stomp where every single stomp I had to choose if I wanted to stomp on the "players" and risk taking damage or try and stomp away from the player, risking getting too far where my projectiles don't reach my target. Would love to see an expanded version with multiple types of players and bosses.

Submitted

Wow the graphics are amazing. This game is incredibly polished for a 48h game. I enjoyed a lot being the boss and using the super ability. Super easy to play (just 2 buttons). Well done.

Fell free to try my game too :)

Submitted

Quite interesting! Finding uses for the apparently simple slam/shooting moveset really makes for a rich gameplay experience, and the upgrade tree makes it very replayable. Thumbs up from me!

Submitted

Genuinely the best game I've played all jam! Very fun & creative

Submitted

Very fun, the best other 'be the boss' entry I've played :) I especially liked the little touch of the player names above the heads of the characters.

Submitted

Very nice! Playable! Great work
