Feed The Slime

This is Feed The Slime, my entry for Ludum Dare 46.

Please note: I provide a Windows build. The WebGL build is not actively supported and has some slight issues (see below).

Changelog

• 1.0: Initial release
• 1.1: Collider on sticks has been increased (hopefully fixing issues that users had with the WebGL build)
• 1.2: Slime sounds now decrease with increased player distance and are 3D

I did participate in Ludum Dare 45 the first time and could only work about half a day on the project. This time I got around three days of implementing an entire game from scratch.

It was a cool experience and I learnt a lot in the process. I hope you enjoy playing it and I'm appreciating any comment you leave here.

In the game you play as a protagonist that wanders lightheartedly through  a forest as you hear a distant squeaking. It is a slime! And it is starving!

You are now at a crossroads:  Do you want to help keeping it alive (the theme, tada!) or do you want to leave it there starving?

You can feed the slime resources that are scattered on the forest floor. But keep an eye on its needs. When it comes to food it is rather picky.

A big thanks goes to Lunaventor. She provided me with the sound effects for the slime.

I mainly support a Windows build for this game. For the Mac, Linux and lazy players out there I also created a WebGL build.

Please note: The WebGL build is not actively supported. It seems to have some problems (which are not existing in the Windows  build): 1) Mouse movement seems jittery (mouse acceleration?) 2) Collision detection on resources (sticks) seems off.

If you want to know exactly how badly I screw up during development you can have a look at the amazing source code and Unity project here on the GitHub project. You also need to have access to Blender and Audacity.
