Adorable graphics + good execution on idea.. Just wish the game had a challenge curve as you progressed through the ranks (possibility to get killed).. Really good start and well done

It's ADORABLE!

I love the graphcis! Cute simple vector art! I like how each of the characters say stuff, it really adds to the feel of the game! Gets very crowded later on in the game, make it very difficult and I lost a lot of my progress. Good job I really enjoyed what I played of it!

This is awesome. The level of polish is really high, and the goals/mechanics were presented extremely clearly. I love it! One of my favorites so far!

Great art and I love the premise -- who wouldn't want to be *the* Slime King? And, of course, you need a kingdom to wobble over!

One of the funniest LD games I've played in a while ! The main thing I love about this one is the balance : ther's enough action to make you feel unsafe, but you're never really threatened and can actually finish the game ! The remarks of the ennemies very also really enjoyable ! My only suggestion would be to add more different interaction with the ennemies/type of ennemies, but at the same time it could make you lose the simplicity of the experience. Great work !

I loved gulping down everybody at the end! The graphics and music create a very sweet mood. Awesome work!

I like the design, especially how enemies run away and don't shoot when you near them. If I may suggest one thing would be to put the health and eating progress separated or make the projectiles deal more damage to you.

Music + art work really nice, great job.

I love the art style of this game. The UI indicator at the bottom of what I can and can't eat is really nice.

I love me some interactive tutorials too :smile:

Awesome entry, great job :thumbsup:

Argh I keep telling myself to put an in-game tutorial like that at the start screen and always forget til I see someone do it well! Seriously there are so many nice little touches that you did right here. The eaten enemies showing up in your stomach, the forgiving difficulty (I was deathly afraid of dying and restarting the whole thing, especially on the archer stage), and the fantastic final level where you drop your guard and go ham on everyone. I am extremely impressed with this game and I can't find too many faults. At first I thought it was a little too far away from the theme (a lot of other twinsticks this LD have had the playspace shrink), but then I realized you're doing the same by making your hurtbox grow so you did well there too. Awesome job, one of the better entries so far.

Osmos finally got a face. A green cheerful slimy face! =)

I guess, I found the new antidepressant game. Fitting music and a general art style makes me forget about everything sad and just chill out and enjoy eating literally everything that moves. As player progress, the game slowly turns into a bullet hell, multiplying the amount of fun by three. A cherry on top of this is an orc warrior running into a wall and screaming "STOP RUNNING"! It's hilarious! Thank you for the experience, your game is a piece of art! =D

Cute game, reminds me of Dungeon Kepper (with you being the monster in the dungeon and heroes coming to slain you). The graphics are very nice and sound effects add to the game, music is also very fine. Gameplay is simple but pleasant and it doesn't take long to complete the game. Sometimes i was getting frame drops, which was slightly annoying but not that much. Very neat game with decent execution!

What a charming little game! Your slime is so cute! I like the mix of Osmos/Agar.io and bullet hell style gameplay. Great little tutorial, great music, great gameplay. Not really anything else for me to add!

Awesome job!
