There are a lot of small details I really appreciate in this that are worth pointing out. The 'bottom' slime having a shadow when jumping makes it a lot easier to know where you're going to land, especially when the aim of the game is landing on slimes. The tall stack of slimes isn't too visually distracting, partly due to the camera zooming out as the stack increases. Really great job on those, they're a big bonus towards the game feel being so nice.\nFun, quick and simple, this is a big win as a jam game.

I'm not sure they got me at all in my first run, so I tried again and definitely noticed they occasionally snagged some slimes despite my random jumping around.\n\nThe slimes were a bit tricky to land on, I found my best bet was usually to just aim in the general direction of a pile of slimes and hope I landed on some. I guess they try to run away from the tower? Which is kind of fun (or maybe morbid?) from a story perspective... all the slimes run away but then join our effort to capture more as soon as they are part of the tower. :smile:\n\nThe sounds and graphics were quite nice, the game feels polished. One particularly nice piece of sound design I think is the difference between slimes getting picked up and slimes getting taken by the birds--although I never saw the birds grab a slime, I still more or less intuitively knew that that sound was probably the \"bad\" sound (and confirmed it later when I saw the ticker tick down).
