One Page TTRPG Description
You are a slime: an amorphous blob of hunger that shlorps
through dungeons, caverns, and tombs. Be it pesky
adventurers or your fellow dungeon denizens, there’s no
end to the list of things trying to stop you from living your
best slime life. It’s an eat or be eaten existence for you!

The over-under approach to rolls based on size (where certain things get harder/easier as your size changes) is a clever approach to handling challenges, as are the split rules for mitigating damage (which can result in the creation of new potential challenges with your dopplegangers/split slimes.)

This game would definitely benefit from some additional guidance regarding facilitating challenges:

  •  I didn't see anywhere that specifies whether it uses a GM or not (I could see play happening either way, but then there are some questions about how the story/challenges get structured and how the amount of damage dealt is decided.)
  • Some advice on creating an adventure and what sort of challenges a slime could face would be beneficial (I think you originally had some on the draft) but that would be hard to fit in with the limitations of the one-pager space.
