The mechanics here are pretty cool, I like being able to jump up much higher and collect that sort of power. The tradeoffs for certain things are interesting. There are some weird control issues like when you get a lot of jump power I bounced backwards. The jumping over obstacles is very precise and the obstacles aren't very clear. The sounds are a bit dry, like it doesn't sound like much was done with them to create them. It is a bit strange that there is large, loud intro music and then no in-game music. Overall, fun concept that could use  some tuning on the mechanics.

Developer

if you jump too close to a wall you get bounced back

Really like the mechanic of dropping slime balls to get through places. Lots of potential for level design!

Submitted

The game was nice, aside from the slow player speed which made the levels seem longer. It felt a bit awkward not resetting the whole level when the player died, but the game felt pretty interesting overall and I would have liked to play past level 2. Great job with the parts that did work though!

Developer

we felt it wasn’t nessacary because you can reset from the menu at any time, so we just didn’t get around to it.

Submitted

Cool game. There is a bug, that if you die from fall, slime doesn't restet, so you can be soft locked. 

Developer

you can reset from the pause menu at any time

Submitted

Slime for the win.

Submitted

Platformer with cool concept, but would be better if you could finish second level and also after you die, level doesn't really reset completely (you could manually reset so it was fine though). Good work.

Developer

the second level is only incompletable due to a bug!

Submitted

Cool platformer, it was just too slow for me

Submitted

Really a cool game! Smoothing animation would have made the game game even better

Submitted

Fun game!

The only problem is that's very imprecise physics, which is a bit frustrating.

The game arts is good, but I think the implementation could be better (some blurry things).

Congrats!

I couldn't pass it because of a bug. The slime was too slow and its jump was too short. Otherwise the theme was well implemented and I like that you can drpo slimes. good game

Submitted

This is a nice short experience, I enjoyed it ! Well done! :)

Submitted

Pretty cool game, I like that you can drop the slimes, makes it more interesting.

Submitted

The sponge idea was a nice touch! Cute short little game. Good job guys! ^^

Submitted

Wow, so many attention to the game! I want some too :D Let's go to check my slime game too, fellow slime-lovers!

Btw, this game have nice mechanics and i like the animations. Thanks for the warning about bug, so i didn't lost a lot of time tryng to solve puzzle, as i usually do :)

Submitted

Interesting mechanic, however I wasn't sure where I was supposed to go in the second level. Also, some of the art assets looked a little out of place as some of them were in a pixel art style whereas some of them were higher resolution.

Developer

the second level is unbeatable due to a bug, also, we weren’t able to get all art assets completed by the deadline.

Submitted

A sweet little game. It may be predictable, but it's obvious that a good job has been done in the field of creativity.

Submitted

It's a neat little game. The concept is interesting in its own right; I just wish there was more to explore with the mechanic! I'd say the controls definitely need some more work, both in feel and feedback. Good job overall though!

Hey, I can't figure out how to download it. Is it only for Windows or does it work for other platforms (I use MacOS)?

Oh noh, pink rectangle, worst ever nightmare, run for your lives!

Couldn't really find out how to beat that level with the glass bottle and the several sponges.

Loved the idea, creative puzzles, platforming controls could get a little more work for maximum good feelings, but honestly nice entry. Love the intro screen haha.

Developer(+1)

unfortuantly that level is unbeatable due to a bug

Of course, the mechanics are pretty well aligned with the jam theme but the artwork gives it the final touch. 

Good game.

I agree. its super nice!. kinda reminds me of this other jam entry: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2024/rate/2910826
