So it was a bit confusing to start. Would really have enjoyed starting out as a simple slime mold, sliming along walls until finding the relic and then breaking free with control over gravity.\r\rThe gravity controlling was fun though.\r\rI had some issues getting stuck along walls. First being able to slide past one block then sticking on next. Same thing but different effect when it was a slime-side. Being able to pass safely by first tile but death on second. It would have been nicer if the collision was on exact squares instead. \r\rGot to second or third level where there was one room I just died 3-4 times due to collisions described above and then gave up. But the playing was nice up until that.\r\rStill think it should start before gaining control over gravity sliming along walls.\r\rAlso the first help text, or what it was, was outside screen when starting and disappeared before I got to it."},{"author_name":"Kino333","author_uid":"36661","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 12:03am","epoch":1398729480,"text":"@Local Minimum: Oh man. I didn't even think of the screenshot winding up being misleading D: I'm sorry that it wound up being like that! \r\rTHe clipping issues are things I'm aware of, and I will be going and remaking a lot of the walls and hazards so that the clipping doesn't happen anymore. \r\rI do like your idea of sliming along the walls, and I'm going to jot that down as something to figure out how to do as well.

In the later levels it doesn't matter that much though. The music's just lovely! As is the difficulty level and the level design :) there's a bit of backtracking if you choose poorly at the early crossroads, but it's not that bad. This is a great, fun little game! :)"},{"author_name":"DrPrettyPatty","author_uid":"30068","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 12:50am","epoch":1398818700,"text":"Nicee, great music and pacing!

I like the control mechanic, and it definitely felt good to slide right between the hazards and grab the (what the hell were those things, anyway?). The level design was good too, a nice difficulty curve and easy ways to figure out what could kill you without having to be far into a level."},{"author_name":"InfectionTeam","author_uid":"37445","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 2:33am","epoch":1398824880,"text":"Those damn water droplets, always killing me XD good game, took me a while to beat"},{"author_name":"Garris","author_uid":"33993","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 4:17am","epoch":1398831120,"text":"Cool concept, messing with gravity.

If it were just pixelated it'd be great. The slime could have some kind of idle animation so it doesn't look dead like a rock. The music was good, but it just stopped and the game became quiet.
