How does your game represent "Slick"?
The main mechanic is a slick, satisfying slide of shapes. Also, I made all of the sprites and the background texture from my daughter's play-doh, which I think made this project look pretty slick.

The play-doh art style is great and very unique! The gameplay is fun and chaotic!
thanks a lot!!! It was a joy to create
Super fun to play and the playdoh sprites are beautiful
I am so glad you liked it! I am finding the gameplay is pretty addicting- I’ve played it several times myself
Loved the music! Knowing that the models were actually physically sculpted definitely makes this slicker!
Thank you so much! Music is my passion :D
Charming, unique, and fun! Lovely take on the genre, very cool. Would be nice to have a preview of the next shape to plan ahead though. Great work!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! You know, I had that feature in the game and then took it out because I was thinking it could be one of the powerups but then I never made it a power up hahaha oops!
I voted
I like it
thanks so much!!
this is super fun and relaxing. love the play-doh!
thank you!!! That’s exactly what I was going for :D
I really liked the art style and game mechanic of this game.
Thank you!
I wanted more of the squiggly entity. Neat little game
thanks a lot! Perhaps I will figure out a way to feature the steward more prominently
As others have said, I love this unique art style. It's truly one of a kind which is hard to do these days. The gameplay is simple but satisfying, although it felt a bit too luck based. But I get that's more of a personal preference type thing. Great work overall, an equally fun and unique entry!
I am so glad you like it!!! Yes luck is absolutely the crux of this game... it's relatively easy to decide where to place the shapes, but the spawn point, the spawned shape, the spawn of power ups and spawn rate shapes, and which shape you get to throw is all up to randomness which leaves a bit to be desired! I'm thinking enemy powerups, power-up choices, and maybe some more intentional spawn patterns might make skill seem more significant.
I love the playdoh art. Super cute!
I got 970, just barely lost ><
Nice lil variation on match 3 games. Well done!
I am so glad you enjoyed it!!!
Really nice and simple to get into. Appretiate the horror music choice at the end :D Well done!
Thanks a lot! I am really glad you enjoyed it :)
only 3 levels or did i die?
there is in fact only 3 levels! If you see the “you win” screen you know you win, and if you see the “game over” screen you know you died
yup, made :)
liked the music + the game n stuff
the stressful trap beat was a fun touch 👍
thank you! I’m so glad you like it
awesome aesthetic and very slick !! love the clay ^-^ hope you add more levels in the future
thanks!!! Yes I think I will add some more levels, some more game mechanics (like some difficulty scaling “bad” powerups) and introduce an infinite “arcade” mode
The music during the first dialogue goes nuts. Using play-doh for the models is also so cool. I never really figured out a good strategy, it felt a little like luck of the draw, but I still enjoyed all the aestheticsss
thanks a lot!! Yes it definitely relies heavily on luck. The best strategy is to focus on SR pieces that slow the spawn rate and to get as many power ups as you can, but if they don’t come or if the same tower gets a random spawn too many times it can be over really quick! My fastest run was 1:30 because I got so many power ups to spawn randomly
Nice game! The mechanic is simple, but addicting. It's good for a relaxing, idle game. Well done!
thank you!!! I’m so glad you liked it
You perfectly captured the vibe you were going for and the presentation is crazy good! I wish I was better at the gameplay ahhaha
I look forward to what your funky clay brain comes up with next!
Thank you very much!!!
Its very, very fun, and chunky clay style is very unique.
A great and slick little game!
I'm really glad you liked it!
