Slime Quest (coelocanth)

This was a game entry with the theme "slime" in the "Theme Roulette" game jam event on rpgmaker.net. This version includes bug fixes but is not intended to differ substantially from the original.

In this game, there are three playable characters:

• Anton, the monster hunter
• Rain, the rogue
• Shalath, the sentient slime

This game was an experiment in the "choice and consequence" genre, a lot of dialogue is varied depending on what you have done beforehand. This is tracked through the game and feeds into some of the nine endings.

Hints and walkthroughs to obtain the other endings are available in the endgame summary after obtaining any ending.

Shalath has some unusual abilities both in and out of combat:

• Divide yourself into multiple slimes with different abilities using "fission"
• Level up, heal, and learn new abilities by eating
• Shape-shift to look more or less human, altering NPC reactions
