No idea if that was intended.\rThe green colour right before red will not affect other greens when touching or leaving a trail. Im guessing it was for testing things and it just wasnt removed?\rThe mother slime doesn't seem to actually do anything with the solidified slime blocks when expanding over them."},{"author_name":"aeai","author_uid":"15206","time":"Aug 28, 2015 @ 11:07am","epoch":1440759720,"text":"@Arvaneth: Thx the awesome comment and the reported bugs:) I am going to fix the crash as soon as i can(I am in vacation so i don't know how soon that will be, i need to hunt down a pc) The movement issues are related to some bad decision what I made while i make the collision detection system. I noticed them too but unfortunatelly i didn't have the time to fix them :( The green colour before the red is also a bug, i guess it's the mom slime color, you not supposed to have that:p The blue spawner spawning green slimes a "feature" I actually lost the green spawner sprite before submission so i used that as a substitute. The solid slime blocks was intended for a building\/resource management feature but i needed to cut that because of the closing deadline. If i manage to get the time for it i will make a complete game with the same concepts and without the shortcuts:) One more time, thank you that you decided that the game worth that much playtime that you could notice these things:)"},{"author_name":"TackoramaLtd","author_uid":"54913","time":"Aug 29, 2015 @ 5:17pm","epoch":1440868320,"text":"It's a strong concept with a very good puzzle element that is let down by lack of audio and slightly unclear goal\/reward system.
