How does your game represent "Slick"?
When we saw "Slick", the first thing we thought of was OIL. As you are made of oil, you shoot oil from yourself, causing yourself to shrink in mass as a means to solve puzzles, alongside using it as a projectile. We hope players will find the ambience of the world, and the mechanics to solve the puzzles found within it as "slick".

I am also stupid, I didn't realize I had opened the grate after doing the fan puzzle, so I kept doing it for 5 minutes waiting for something to happen lol. 

Loved the atmosphere of the game though.

You're good, I forgot to make the noise for that specific gate loud enough to be heard from behind the wall of the puzzle, I'm glad you enjoyed our game though!

Dang, i am stupid. It took me 5 minutes to realize that the green levers were up lol

Shooting oil to make yourself smaller is a really slick idea! I love the underground pipes aesthetic.

Hugely underrated game. Visionary artstyle, such cool ambience. Puzzles are not super difficult, but probably just right for a jam. Whole team should be very proud. FUckin sick.

Cool aesthetics, interesting, albeit tricky puzzles.

Incredible Vibes from this one. Love the Industrial asthetics! The main mechanic is really interesting would love to see it further expanded with more puzzles!

The game is weird in a good way. It reminds me to portal for some reason. Good game. I like the stability of the game, being a 3D game. The vibes, graphics & sound is consistent. Good job!

Damn this is by far the most atmospheric game I've seen in the jam so far. Everything feels as if it's oozing with oil. The puzzles are also really cool and I love the mechanic of how shooting the oil makes you smaller. Great job folks!

I think you can shoot and collect oil at the same time duplicating it.

If you move your mouse cursor outside the game window, it won't capture it at the start of the game, leaving you with a visible mouse cursor, and you can't rotate the view for more than ~90°. You can press Esc and then Resume to recapture the mouse. The same happens with the browser's default Esc behavior of uncapturing the mouse cursor. I think it should recapture the mouse on any mouse interactions.

The visuals and overall aesthetic are top tier, I also found myself really enjoying the puzzles :)

Fantastic visuals, I love the reduced color palette and retro vibe.

You guys got the looks and the ambience down just right! It's dark, it's drab, it's isolating, it's creaky and metallic, it reminds me a bit of Deus Ex original when it was in its facilities and bunkers.

Just amazing graphics, so far my favourite I've seen within the game jam. Cool and interesting puzzles that had me scratching my brain at points too.

Submitted(+2)

vibes were immaculate! was half expecting a spooky oil monster to pop out at any moment! but damn the whole game was put together amazingly and the puzzles were actually fun to complete! Great job!

Submitted(+2)

Insanely cool visuals, takes me back to games I used to play on my dad's bad laptop. Great job!

This is such a unique and awesome interpretation of the theme! I love the atmosphere and sound design, especially. It stands out from the crowd and has a really interesting puzzle mechanic, too. Legit my only complaint is that the slick globs can be a little annoying to work with when you want to avoid picking them up. Great job making and polishing this game!

Thanks for the feedback, working on the sound design for this game was a fun experience and I'm proud of what we were able to accomplish!
