Slime is handsome and kind! We are waiting for updates!
This game does not feel like it was made for PC. The controls are clunky and not at all intuitive. You can change the controls in the options menu. You will have to to learn most the things you can do.
Good game bad controls.
Hi, AxalKay! Good news! We totally redesigned keyboard controls. We added mouse input for smooth aiming for active abilities and form selection. So we will be grateful if check out and give your feedbacl for this update.
Hey, I'm liking this game so far!
The concept of different slime abilities is really pulling me in. I'm excited to get to play more, so I can explore the world more and get invested in the story. For now I was only able to play a little bit, because of a bug I encountered.
Basically the skill picker thing won't let you pick the sticky green slime, so once you switch off it you'll never be able to use it again (and it is not re-obtainable unless you restart your save). Also, I'm not sure how to progress the game after getting to the chest... I can't seem to open it. The only interaction in that part is the torch, which I'm also not sure what to do with. I think the fire slime should be able to burn the thorns btw, unless I'm missing something.
Otherwise this is a fantastic start, the full game is going to be so good!
Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback. We glad you enjoyed our game.
About the issues.
- The chest can be open by using "punch" ability (east button on the gamepad or Left Ctrl on the keyboard by default).
- You should be able to switch to any form you obtained earlier by using radial menu (Left Stick or Left Alt by default). You can also switch to the previous form by pressing RB on the gamepad or Tab on the keyboard. Unless there is actually a bug we've never encountered before
- There is an item near fire slimes which gives you the fire form. This form allows you to burn flammable objects like dried thorns, wooden doors and barricades.
Please let us know if these tips helped or not.
We also planning to release patches every week so stay tuned!
Okay! A few more concerns:
- I was able to open the chest with the "punch", but nothing came out. I assume it's supposed to be the water slime item?
- There still appears to be the bug where I can't select the green slime from the radial menu. The purple, yellow, and fire slimes work just fine but the green one won't select. I tried clicking, but the LMB does nothing to select any of them.
- It took me a while but I realized the fireballs from the fire slime use up energy, and that the torch replenishes it. Maybe this can be more clear to the player somehow?
Hello again!
- Chest is empty now, but we fixed it in upcoming update. And no, water form is not here ) You can find it during your journey.
- Are you using mouse + keyboard input? If so green slime can be picked with south-east direction (down + right arrows or S+D) while radial menu opened.
- The concept of the game implies that not only world can be discovered by player but forms and their possibilities as well. So you should try different ways to apply new abilities and discover their features. But looks like additional tips are required.
This is a good game to spend time in research and adventure, I hope the narrative director is working hard to make the plot even more interesting than the gameplay
Give me complet game, please! A blast to play!
