the last level doesn’t progress when you get the flower.

Yeah, that’s a bug. That’s actually the end of the game. But congrats on beating it! And thanks for playing :D. How did you like it?

Very cute game! I love your itch.io page too! A lot of clever designed puzzle levels. A level reload button would be nice, so when you get stuck you can restart it. Like I got stuck at the end of world 1. What was I supposed to do there?

But I enjoyed playing it. Much more peaceful than our approach though in some ways pretty similar game idea and mechanics. Be sure you got very high rating from me.

Developer

Thank you so much :) I really wanted to build the reset button but we ran out of time. I tried to design the levels to be forgiving so you could always "manually" reset, but I'm sure there are so many scenarios I didn't account for. 

BUT good news is you beat the game! That mountain peak is the actual end of this game, but the flower has a bug so it's not very clear. Would love to add more worlds after this one. Thanks for playing all the way through, and I appreciate the rating!

Very clever and interesting mechanics! And I liked the arts and UI too! Maybe it will be better to have a restart level function? :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! and YES absolutely to the reset button! We wanted to implement it but ran out of time :(. So glad you played the game though. Thanks for the feedback!

The art is awesome, the game is polished, the puzzles are well made, one of the best game jam games about a slime, lol.

Developer

haha thank you so much! I'm glad you liked our mushy take on a hiking slime :)

Cool game! The puzzles are well-crafted. Figuring out when to shoot to make fuel available later or to scale to the right size made me think.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you figured that out. It was really challenging to design the puzzles in a way that was forgiving and had the extra goo you needed, but also didn't make the answer obvious. Glad you enjoyed it :)

Really fun! Cute and creative!

Thanks a ton! It was a fun project :)

Really enjoyable and fleshed out little puzzle platformer! Fantastic way to explore the complexities of some simple mechanics - well done!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks so much! It was definitely fun to explore those simple mechanics and try to pull all the depth out of them that we could.

Surprisingly good little puzzle game! It could use a bit more polish, but the level design was great, and I had a ton of fun playing!

Developer

Thank you so much! The levels were fun to design, so I'm glad you enjoyed them. Would love to add more polish, and things like a reset button and proper menus. Thanks a ton for playing :)

Your slime platformer is really good too. I couldn’t decide between puzzle or precision platforming and ended up doing precision platforming. Your puzzler is really good.

Developer

Thanks so much! It's fun to see the different takes on goo platformers.

Nice puzzle game

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

Amazing game. The levels were just banger after banger, and the core concept and execution was really great. The ending was a bit odd, though. I pressed on the flower and nothing happened and I soft locked myself to the right side. That's just a nitpick though, this is great.

Developer

Wow, thank you so much! We tried to be really thoughtful about the level design, so I'm glad you enjoyed them! Once you reach the mountain, that's the end of the game, so congrats on beating it :) There's a bug with the final flower, so it's not very obvious. Thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed it :)

Great Puzzle Platformer. Figuring out where to jump and shoot the slime was a great mechanic for a puzzle.

Developer

Thank you! It took a while to figure out the best way to leverage those mechanics in the puzzles, but once it clicked, the puzzle design was so much fun.

Yeah I really feel like you could evolve this into something more!

Main character stares into your soul. Effective gameplay, nice challenge and interesting resource management.

Developer

Thank you! Resource management was a core factor in most of the level solutions
