I am sorry but I don't think this game fits the requested theme; also it seems quickly made. IT's ok if this is your first game, you will get better; I suggest you rating other games next time so your game gets more attention and also using more powerful game-making tools such as Unity or GameMaker or Unreal

Besides the game not being really understandable be proud that you made something. I liked the graphics and sound effects so + on those, as @nico-the-pro said try to use more powerful tools next time and keep the theme in mind when making a game. But other than that great job, If you have time check out my game :v:

I am sorry, I did not really understand the game. Am I supposed to collect "life" to get the game over? Am I supposed to dodge everything? I figured out that with "money" I can fire the coin that destroys objects in its path. So I guess dodging anything but life and money is the goal? It could all be a bit clearer.
The graphics are super simple, but they are charming and work. As do the sound effects.
I have never heard about scratch. It seems to be a really cool project! Contrary to NICO_THE_PRO I don't think you should necessarily use a more powerful engine. It is really cool that anyone can participate whichever way they want and it's also great to hear about all these options you might not even know. So thanks for using scratch!
It's true that you should rate a lot of other games to get a rating in the end. One can only encourage it :)
Anyway, work on clearer instructions and you'll have a nice little game there :)

took some time to understand that you have to avoid some stuff and collect other, was also confusing why some things were words in english and some in korean.. some pixel art would be better there, it's universal

very innovative use of the theme, since the theme, say life is a currency it doesn't define the value of that currency and the use of it, and you simply flipped the use so getting more life get you close to the death or in this case a happy death or end, while time doesn't give you more time it has the opposite effect it takes time away from you and you become slower and eventually die, interesting concept. and adding the Korean words made more fun, challenging and a bit educational. graphic and sound is ok but could be better. seem you are still at the start of your development journey, and scratch is a good place to understand programming logic. as the guys above said try to learn tools that give you more power game maker, game salat, godot, unity, fusion, unreal whatever you feel best suit you ^^ all the best.
Cute main character! I liked the sounds as well. Gameplay didn't make sense to me until I read the instructions; maybe there could have been some visual differentiation to indicate what to seek and what to avoid? I think Scratch was an interesting platform to choose (I hadn't seen it before, so thanks for introducing me to something new!) and totally appropriate to the simplicity of the game you decided to make.

@nico-the-pro I added a description of the game. Life is the score I need to get.[time] is what makes my life difficult. So getting [time] slows down the slime. If slime doesn't move, the game is over. To end a hard life. When you get [money], it prevents [time] from being interrupted. So when you get [money], you fire the coin. [time] is an impediment to Slime's life. And [시간] is [time] in Korean. [돈] is [money] in Korean. It must have been hard to play because of the lack of explanation about my game. I'm sorry.

I can only understand the game by watching the introduction over and over again.
After understanding the game, I think the game is well connected with the theme.
Could the gameprototyping be based on Kaboom?

@pengda Does https://kaboom.org/ kaboom mean this? and Thank you for playing my game. And thank you for knowing the topic of the game.
Liked this simple cute game :) good job.

A cool idea, but it could be a lot better and more understandable. Still the jelly character and the sound effects were cool.
Keep it up man!

Slime is so cute. The game time can be longer and I feel like the game is over as soon as it starts

Can I say everything goes so fast that I even don't know what happened?~
Slightly confusing, but entertaining! I had to read the instructions a couple of times to understand it. Reminds me of the good ol' drop game, thanks for making the game and make sure to make a game for next ludum dare too :)

A little confusing and incredibly short but it's a great idea overall!

@ildfuglen Thank you. I'll make a more interesting game next time. I like Drop game, too. And I often make Drop game. ^^

@musxue Thank you. I've increased the playing time of the game (life number increase) I'm sorry I don't have enough explanation for the game.

@gassi-games Thank you. I will try harder. I will modify the game a little more.

@pengda I've never seen Kaboom before. But I sometimes play Drop-type games. And sometimes I make it.
Nice little game, could have a game over screen and a restart option.

@edevjogos Thank you for playing the game. Thank you for your advice. I'll modify it.

Hey, that's a pretty good game I must say. Also, it's cool that you made it on Scratch, very original. It tells everyone that you can do big with little.
I like that time is something to avoid. Tells us that time is something to be aware of.
Cool game! Maybe it needs more explanation about the rules(step by step, level by level ;D), because at the beginning there are a lot of things that the player can feel a bit confusing... overall it's an amazing idea! Keep making games!! :fist:

@pl4typus Thank you. I'll try harder. I wanted to let you know the importance of time.

@peterfonts I'll work harder. I'll make up a lot of explanation for the game. Thank you for making my game fun. I will continue to do better projects in the future.

Funny little game :) I could have a happy life aha! some ideas for improvement : a restart key, I had to refresh the page to restart, maybe a little bit more difficulty and bullets , you could for exemple aim with mouse and avoid bullets :) nice

@knarf I'll add the difficulty level. I'll add a button that starts again when the game is over. Thank you for your advice. I'll make a mouse move. But it might be a little difficult. The reason is to make the character move from side to side. Thank you.
