It's simple but visually it's very juicy, wish the timer was a little longer so you could be spinning longer! The ui is very cute and also informative.

Developer

Thanks for the feed back! I knew I had a simple game on my hands, so I tried to make it as fun as I could. Also, I went back and forth with the timer. I debated about just adding more time in general or creating random pickups within the game that would give you more time, but alas I ran out of time myself. Thanks again for playing my game!

This is really fun! I love the little Slimes, and the Soundeffekt you get from destroying them xD

But I need to Point out, that "X" and "Z" arent't next to each other on all Keyboard Layouts, which makes the Controls feel a bit weird...  

Thats my only negative Point. You made a really good Game there :D

Developer

I greatly appreciate the feed back. I will definitely keep you what stated about "X" and "Z" in mind. Pico-8 only gives you five buttons to work with, but I do see that within Pico-8, for "X" and "Z", I could have used "C" and "V" or "N" and "M." Something I should have tested. Thank you for pointing that out and I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

It's a fun game! My record was 8, btw. Also, I loved the retro pixel art aesthetic. Good job!💜

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm working to improve my pixel art. Thanks again for the kind words!

pico-8, thats an upvote from me! the battle is fun with satisfying feedback (slime explosions) and having a move to unlock was fun to discover.

Developer

Pico-8 is awesome! I still have so much to learn from it, but it's been a lot of fun. Thank you for the kind words about my game and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I like this a lot, my only gripes is I wish the timer was a bit longer so I could enjoy the spin more. I loved loved loved the particle effects when smashing the slime!

Developer

I appreciate the feed back. Thank you! Yeah, there's so much that I wanted to do without leaning on the timer or trying to find a better sweet spot for it. I debated about doing some kind of pick up logic to where a random slime would give you more time, but I ran out of time myself. Thanks again!

I like the old retro theme going on here and the vex and look of it is really cool. I also did enjoy the squishes best was only 12 tho.

Developer

I appreciate it. I know it's a simple game and I tried to make it as lively as I could given the time constraints. Thank you for playing.

I see in the screenshots that the guys spins to attack. He wasn't doing it for me :(

Developer

Thank you for trying my game. That's my fault for not making it clearer in the game, but it should be once you squish three slimes, you hold 'z' and you should start spinning.

Tried few times and got to 14 :>

I really like the VFX!

Developer

Thank you! You did better than me. I think the highest to got was 12.
