You implemented an idea I also had for a different game. my idea was to never go back on your path but I like your idea as well that you ' lose ' sand by rewalking a path. Very nicely done. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to give a score?!
I like the concept. Very chill game with a pleasant art style and relaxing water sounds. A bit more variety in the puzzles would be nice. Maybe add some power ups or so. Overall it's a nice polished game. Will rate it when possible.
Nice puzzle game. Sounds went well with the graphics. Eating animation was funny. Adding restart would help if levels get more challenging and you know you will not survive.
cool puzzle game. I like the mood that the colors and shaders give it. Only complaint is that the slime is very slow - I think it should move at like 2x or even 3x the speed it does now.
Fun little puzzle game, with very cute graphics. The sounds did grate after a few levels, and I'd recommend looking into some simple tricks around modulating sounds that play frequently, so they sound slightly different but don't require multiple files. I did appreciate the animations as well, but especially for a movement-heavy game, I'd think about tightening the timing, so the player feels like they can execute their strategy at the same speed they come up with it. Overall, very solid entry, nicely done! :tada:
Neat game! I loved the visuals and the slime size indicator is really cool.
Like the concept. I especially like the conflict between making sure you don't get too small and also having to cover the level with the blob, making it a nice puzzle.
Nice game, very solid gameplay and game design. Loved the indication of blob's size.
Great pixel art, great animation of the blob.
The difficulty was easy, the amount of levels for a compe is quite big. Seemed very polished, the indicator how big your current form is, is pretty clever.
I have no idea how to make a shader like the one that makes the water "wobble", technically very impressive, although for a wave impression it didn´t work for me : /
All in all, I had much fun with the entry, good job!
Simple game, well executed and polished. I like how you made the levels simple at the beginning with the difficulty progressively increasing; personally I would prefer seeing the more difficult levels sooner, and I would definitely play more non-trivial levels like the last one. Making a level generator should be rather simple – with that you could ship it on mobile for commuters to enjoyably waste time with :innocent:. Diagonal movement is a nice touch.
Nice concept. I really loved the graphics and the mood of it. I would have loved to be able to move faster, but overall solid entry. Good job!
BLOBBA IS YOU
Fun little puzzler. I'll admit, I didn't finish; the Blob really moves too slowly for the larger puzzles. There's also a glitch where if the last move you make is onto a food tile, you'll see the particle effect for eating the food after the level transitions. (Speaking of: I think the "eating" animation would look better if it starts when he moves onto the title, not after!)
Cute art style, great ambiance! I feel like the blob could have moved a little fast, the game dragged a bit towards the end just having to wait for the blob to move. I was also surprised to see you could move diagonally!
loved the game concept. I like how it gets smaller if you don't eat the lizard. And the concept to fill the entire space with the blob trails was fantastic.
Quite nice idea - limiting the amount of steps suits the theme very well! I'd like to have the option to speed up the steps, it's quite time consuming when you already made up your mind how you are going to walk, but the execution takes really long.
Love it! Reminds me of old pokemon game puzzles with the breaking ice. The graphics are amazing and the idea is simple yet brilliant. I only wish I could spam the movement keys faster!
I love this art style, it's so fun. I'm so happy when I play it!!!
Intresting, but I'd like to slime goes faster. And I think sounds of slime's jump are some irrelevant. Good job!
Intresting idea and penguin with pink glasses looks very cool!
The movements left for the character was a bit weird, i couldn't read easily how many steps i had left. The movements were a bit slow and the game was a bit easy too (not to brag too much). Overall, a nice and cosy game !
I really liked the art and the muted colour palette, it really set the beach mood. The concept of the puzzle was good but none of the levels really felt like I had to plan ahead because there was plenty of food available. The size meter was a bit hard to parse, I would have liked to see a number that says how many steps I have left. I could also sometimes get the blob to move diagonally.
interesting attack and nicely executed.
it would definitely be possible to work on the level design because all the levels are very easy
I appreciate the indicator of how much movement I have left
nice entry
