I love how cute this game is and the take on the theme. I had some trouble getting the slimes to act the way I wanted. Great job!

Really nice entry. Think there's a lot more you could explore with the different types of slimes and how they react to food.

This is a great start! keep it up, add some fun fruit variant puzzles, and you got yourself a full game!

The most cynical implementation of *Boy and His Blob*. There's not even a hug button. How dare you!

Joke aside, it was a pretty simple puzzle platformer, though I couldn't help but feel it was too simple. The slime AI is pretty good and their bounce even has a lot of character. It's a little sad the only application they seem to have was dying on spikes and getting trapped into switches. Then again, I didn't have any slimes following me at the end, so I guess joke's on the final hooded person?

On my retina Macbook screen, the game ended up being very small. I thought the jump was awfully short; it made jumping over gaps very stressful due to the required precision. I would have liked checkpoints, too, since very frequently, I ran out of berries to feed slimes.
