As someone who played a lot of RPGs, I found this to be a fun game loop. I liked having agency to apply XP to my characters and thought it was interesting to only be able to do so when the Absorb meter was full - it added a layer of economy management. There were some balancing issues, like I was waiting to see one of my characters with low HP die, but he never did. Also noticed when I removed the neg stats and absorbed, my HP still went down. Still fun nonetheless; add some polish and juice and this would be a pretty solid entry!

Simple idle game, it could have done with some chill music and sounds

This is a great start.  I do feel like it's almost impossible to lose a unit, so maybe have the negative ones affect you while they are acquired?  Or if they are, they don't do enough negative to worry about them.  I understand it being a jam and there's only so much you can add, so I hope you expand on the idea.

A bit of juice missing but overall cool. Well done.

I liked it. I’m not a big fan of the genre, but it was still fun.

I liked how you implemented the unit mutations; it worked well and brought a bit of randomness to the units.

The interface is easy and understandable to navigate; perhaps a little more juiciness/animations when a unit receives a new mutation would make the game even more interesting/enjoyable.

Fun incremental game managing battling slimes once it gets going.
The early game is a bit slow, wish there was a way I could click or do something manually to help my slimes fight or gain gold.
