Slime Herder

Slime herder is a 2D puzzle game that requires quick thinking and planning to help save adorable slimes from themselves. Magical portals have appeared throughout the Slime Kingdom allowing it’s cute but somewhat ignorant inhabitants to get into all sorts of mischief. Slimes are happy go lucky creatures but can be somewhat fragile around pointy objects, it’s the player’s job to help these slimes safely traverse each level and get to an exit portal.

The slimes worst enemy are sharp spikes that will splatter them on contact. To avoid danger Slimes have the ability to transform and change the way that they move. Some slimes are able to hop a short distance while others can become like trampolines to launch their brethren even higher and further to avoid larger hazards. However Slimes aren’t the cleverest creatures out there and need a little help to know when to transform but that’s where the player comes in. Tapping on a slime gives them a quick tickle and makes them transform or change their behaviour. By timing these actions well and in the right order the player will be able to rescue slimes by getting them to the exit portal.

Slime Herder is a level based game requiring the player to complete each challenge sequentially. A level can be completed by saving the minimum amount of slimes required for that level. As the player progresses the levels become more complex requiring the player to experiment with different solutions and timing. Extra elements include more Slimes and gadgets such as fans and doors that can turned on and off by switches. The initial release will contain 30 levels with a scheduled update to bring in another 15-30 levels post release.
