A Matter of Slime by MelissaL

[raw]
made by MelissaL for Ludum Dare 58 (JAM)

An explosion shakes the alchemist’s lab — and you, a small jelly, awakes in the wreckage.

Your creator, the legendary alchemist Berthold Schwarz, lies unconscious, and it’s up to you to bring him back.

Explore the chaotic laboratory from the ground up, collect the mental powers of your fellow slimes — each granting you new abilities like jumping - by getting them their favorite bean.

Climb books, dodge alchemic materials, and master your powers to reach the first-aid kit that might save your creator... and maybe uncover what really caused the blast.

Missing audio for an even greater mood. Good physics with the jump and swing feature.

Bit of an issue is, that the text did overlap and too may voices were talking at the same time.

Also you can move during the cutscene.

Very enjoyable for a while. I managed to find 8 beans (i think.. the number was partily of-screen).
