Wow! It started fun, great writing, but just when I was thinking it was about to end one way, it took a different turn; you really made the most out of this! I felt the difficulty ramp was really good, that final level was a strong ending!

Very cool puzzle game with really funny writing. I love the setup and the gameplay flip when you get into the last third, that is super cool and just shows how flexible the mechanics you designed are. The gameplay loop was really fun but challenging in later levels. Those last few puzzles got my brain churning but it was really fun. All the hand-drawn art was great too, well done!

The FeedWhat a cute little puzzle game!
A small nice-to-have would've been to be able to reposition the slime before you press space, without having to restart the level, but that's not really a problem. I'm impressed you actually implemented key rebinding in such a short gamejam and you have quite the variety of levels and mechanics! Great job!

TisepAmazing stuff, loved all the puzzles and the story that went along with it, the last puzzle got me for a little bit but there was a such a nice progression of teaching the player mechanics that I was able to piece it together, all well laid out.
The mid game twist where the mechanics completely change up is really clever, great job.

DisquietudeThis was a lot of fun! I really enjoyed solving each puzzle and the difficulty curve felt just right! It would be nice to have an extra indicator in the UI that shows how many tiles a slime has currently consumed. That way, it would be easier to see how close the player is to the goal of each puzzle.
Really great job!

Canvas VariationsFantastic project! I really liked the movement mechanics, they felt slick and easy to understand. The visuals were great and the music was nice. I just wish there were more of a tutorial. Overall, Great job!

Kii-chan Is HungryHello fellow Tallbeard music user. I had a pretty good time with the game. I think you did a really great job exploring the mechanics, and twisting it on its head served the game really well. 27 levels of placing a slime in a somewhat obvious spot would have gotten old, but after playing the back half of the game, I get why it's set up the way it is. The last puzzle had me scratching my head for a bit, but I managed to solve it. The art is charming, if a bit simple. And I loved the little quips from the research notes, very funny.

CrumbaniaThe puzzles and story were a lot of fun. The humor fit really well, and I enjoyed the ending levels quite a bit. It was super cool that you included multiple save files. And the different slime art was simply delightful.

Hungry For LootThe saving feature was actually really sick, don't really see that in many game jams. There was a lot of content in this too, main criticism I had was not being able to change the position after placing already :) good job!

Al Pigeone's PizzeriaI really enjoyed the puzzles and I really liked that in some puzzles there were some extra houses so the solutions weren't to obvious :)

Ordinary BurgersThoses werre great puzzles, I did enjoy mostly the escaping ones, and it would have been nice to be able to move the slime without restarting the level (maybe I missed something ?) but overall, aazing idea; the concept for this puzzle is very strong and could be expand upon, well done
Submitted
Drill Baby DrillI liked the Art and the idea.
