This was a lot of fun, such an athletic little slime! The shooting animation is hilarious, and even before full flight was unlocked it was funny to just keep holding Jump, bounce and fly up ladders. The bosses were really easy, but didn't seem to out of place with the light tone. The grey enemies were a nice surprise, normally I'd be irritated by camouflage like that.
Some minor bugs: Going back through the Grand Agonizer battle I fell off the world (though I'm not sure exactly how this happened). Generally fading everything, not just the background, near the biome exits means that it's possible to hit an invisible enemy there. The power icon shouldn't overlap one of the health hearts.
Thanks a ton for the feedback, glad you liked it!
That was really cute and enjoyable!
The sprites could be a bit bigger to show damage taken by enemies clearly and such. I liked the addition of bosses. The first one was great at checking out firing mechanics though the second didn't really bring anything new while he could have used the newly unlocked ability, but that's a gamejam entry so it didn't lose any stars from my vote with this and absolutely deserves a high spot in the ranking.
I had a lot of fun, especially since I haven't landed once after unlocking flying. I'm sure you can figure a fun way to use it in platforming or puzzles in future projects!
i like this game <3
feels like a complete game 👏 great job
Cool, first time I don't like the way to climb on ladder but later I really like this XD this like I fly and it's very cool, this game is so chill, not too hard but have enough interesting to play, I like you simple art and big map with different areas. GG!
Great controls, and I love the different biomes. The flying mechanic is so cool, and the experience is real smooth.
The bosses were super easy, but apart from that, this game was a lot of fun. Good job!
Yeah, glad you liked it, i had a pretty major case of burnout at the end and it really was a pain constantly replaying it and balancing. Ty for the feedback.
Wish it had some music, but the art and animations are good! First boss is a little easy though
Yep, the bosses were a little too easy and uninteresting, and i absolutely suck at making music so i didfnt make any for this game. Thanks for the feedback!
Hey, it's definitely a good start! We've all been there
Good entry. As people already said, the controls and movements feel very fluid.
The art is good.
Nice game :)
Very nice game :) Congratz. I only missed SFX/Sound Track, but playing the game was really fun.
It was a really enjoyable experience. The art is cute and the movement feels fluid. I like the last upgrade, it feels so empowering to get access to the entire map at the very end !
I wished the bosses were a bit harder though. They do not attack as much as I would have wanted. But it's not a big deal !
Very well done! The art is sub-slime :) The controls are smooth and fun. There are enemies and a good bit of variety of levels. I could see a whole game of this, so of course I want more!
The only thing holding it back is sound. I’m sure that’s not news to you. I guess also fix any bugs - of which I only experienced that one area you can get stuck in (of which you’re not really stuck as you can just spam jump to get out - so very minor).
It would be so awesome if you would try our game and tell us what’s holding it back! That would help us tremendously! Thanks!

Overall, you have a fantastic looking entry. Congrats!
Fun little game you made here. I think the best part of it is by far the movement. Climbing ladders in particular was very satisfying and I'm glad you added an upgrade that turned the whole game into a ladder.
The lack of sound is a bummer because it could have elevated this game so much.
The artwork is great and the whole game is looks very cohesive. I like the dithering when changing area.
There was one part where I thought I was softlocked, but I managed to escape with spamming the jump button. Aside from that the game felt very polished.
