I think you did a pretty good job with this game. Right now my computer is slow so I couldn't beat some of the puzzle which required quick timings but overall it was a really nice game. 4/5

This was a well-designed little puzzler! I like how well-defined the mechanics were, though the stuff that had to be done quickly was a bit difficult because the movement seemed a little iffy (I think I had to be a at a full stop before the game would accept input to go to the next tile). But with a little trial and error I was able to push through.

I liked the story, though it fell a little flat in the end. The revelation was kind of like, "meh". But it was still a great use of the theme.

I like the stylized graphics, if not for the "monster" and "hero" being a bit out of place with the style of the rest of the world.

Well done!

12 hours? That's some incredible work for that short amount of time.

I have exactly one gripe, and that's the stick figure "hero." A minor presentational issue in an otherwise stellar puzzler. Amazing work on the levels!

This game is an awesome puzzle game. And then you play as the enemy with a very good and well thought of dialog...

Really well done. To bad there is no sound.

Enjoyable puzzle game, although it hardly had any fresh ideas, although the game has a good amount of content considering that it was made in 12 hours.

Would be better with sound, also the puzzles are HARD

Some genuinely clever puzzles and a nice learning curve. A few more art and sound assets would have helped, but a great show for 12 hours of work!

I loved the mechanics! I'd rate you highly for Fun and Innovation, but you seem to have disabled them - they're what your game is best at! The graphics are mostly quite nice for the environments, I'm impressed that you got all this done in just 12 hours! Keep it up!

This is an awesome puzzle game. I really enjoyed it. Very clean controls and clear goals. (rhyme!) The dialog really pushes everything along. Well done!

The puzzles are fantastic, and the graphic style works apart from the monster and hero. Story could have been a little better.

Great little puzzle game. At first I was worried the difficulty wouldn't pick up, but it came through. Loosely related to the theme, but great puzzle design.

A nice little puzzle game! The mechanics are intuitive and fun, and the dialogue really made it more fun! I like it

There is no real reason given as to why the slime need to walk through the dungeon, usually the hero does that. The movement lag doesn't really fit. The puzzles can use some work resorting to timing puzzles should not be this frequent. Over all a nice game for the time spent on it.

Nice level design; the time challenges near the end are an interesting variation. Like others, I think the hero sprite is a bit too simplistic and could benefit from a minor redesign.

Your game is so funny and the jokes even carry some truth.
The puzzels are fun, and make use of simple mechanics verry well.
Great game :)

I wish I could have rated Fun and Innovation! Nice job on this game, I always enjoy a good puzzle game, and in 12 hours... very impressive. My only criticism would be that it's often hard to move on the conveyor belts, I had to learn to hold the key I wanted to use down, and as soon as it could trigger it would. That's a polish thing that I'm sure you would have noticed given more time. Again, good job!

Loved the monster's commentary! Good entry! I included it in part 15 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/De5lc4U-4hg
