Slime's Journey

A little microvania. The whole game is about one and half an hour. NO stress here, even boss fights are going down with 4-5 bombs (10 seconds at max on normal). So, basically it is a metroidvania for kids. Even little kids, but for the fans of the genre it can be a little bit relaxing experience. Definitely a one euro experience on sale. I encountered no bugs, the controls are good, the bombs are hitting hard.

If you're looking for a nice little game that checks all the boxes of a metroidvania, try this one. A pro will finish it in a hour or two, even when looking for all the chests, but you'll still have fun playing it. It has: 💙Upgrades 🔫 💙Bosses ⛄️ 💙Platforming

Steam Deckでプレイ。互換性は不明とストアページに表示されていますが問題なく動きました。日本語対応はありませんが中学校程度の英語が読めれば大丈夫だと思います。 スライムがかわいいシンプルな短編ゲームです。ゲーム開始時に体の色を4色から選べて、リボンや帽子などのアクセをつけることもできます。スクショに写っている通り主人公も敵も背景もレトロな感じでかわいらしいです。 メトロイドヴァニアとありますが短編だからか一本道感は強く難易度もかなり低めです。ただし死ぬと2割程度のコインを永久ロストするので、HPアップグレードが買えなくて苦労することはあるかもしれません。とりあえず爆弾を投げまくって乗り切りましょう。マップ切り替えのときにオートセーブされるので死んでしまっても再開はしやすいです。その部屋の入口から再開されます。 トゲに身投げするしかなくなる詰み(？)ポイントがあるのが気になりました。エリア内の敵を全て倒さないと開かないゲートの近くに敵を倒さないまま来てしまうと、ジャンプが届かなくて敵のところに戻れない箇所があります。ただし欠点らしい欠点はそこくらいです。2時間程度で全実績解除までできるゲームなのでサクッと何かやりたいときにはいいかもしれません。

Slime's Journey é um pequenininho metroidvania onde você é um slime que cospe, e nada no seu caminho poderá pará-lo de completar o seu objetivo!!! É um jogo curto, bonitinho e extremamente fácil. Joguei hardcore e completei ele muito facilmente! Minha única critica a ele é a musica em loop que é levemente irritante como o loop não é perfeito. Se ta com vontade de jogar por uma horinha e pouco sem pensar muito e se divertir um pouquinho, vale a pena. Nível na escala de divertimento: COSPE COSPE COSPE SEM PARARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Very short mini-Metroidvania. Artwork's really cute, the monsters and the slime are adorable, the terrain is varied, and the cosmetic options are pretty great. Metroidvania progression is pretty standard too, various shot upgrades, and your typical jump and swim enhancements. There aren't many, but the entire games takes under 2 hours to 102% so it doesn't need a lot. I like that you have lots of customization options, different accessories you can wear and 3 different color choices at the start. Techwise it ran perfectly on a Linux desktop, and it's light weight enough to run super well on a single battery charge on the SteamDeck (my Deck's off for RMA so I couldn't run it there). The only issue is that the Steam F12 screenshots don't work, which usually is a game engine thing. It's short, cute, and inexpensive, but it is short enough that some might abuse the refund system after playing it.

80분 이내에 도전과제 완료가 가능한 게임. 메트로배니아라기에는 진행순서가 강제되는 부분이 매우 아쉽지만, 분량을 생각하면 어쩔 수 없었다고 생각합니다. 스피드런 도전해도 재밌을 거 같습니다.

Slime's Journey is not an easy game to just simply recommend or not recommend. Its cute.....really cute....so if that is what you are looking for most of all, then this is the game for you. Obviously, if you are a "games must look like Metal Gar Solid and Mortal Kombat always" type gamer...you won't like the look. So you migght want to stop reading now and move to another page in the store. But that isn't what makes it difficult to recommend or not. The problem here is that it is a "Metroidvania" style game (feeling like it leans more to the Metriod side), but if you are looking for deep exploration and game longevity, then you are definitely in the wrong place. I tend to enjoy my games slow; usually playing for double the time of the average player to beat them. Within 38 minutes I had all but 4 of the achievements. By 1 hour and 53 mins, I had finished the game. Its short...really short. Now you can argue that a game like Super Metroid can be just as short as this...but not on a first play. However it is really fun, and I can see multiple plays for this one from most people. So that would definitely make it worth the price if you can squeeze 3 or 4 victories out of it. If not...proceed with caution. Also the attack takes a little getting used to. It isn't a standard beam attack...but more like bomb lobbing. Its a nice little change, but may frustrate some gamers until they get used to the arc and distance of the attacks. But here comes the biggest problem with the game: we mentioned it is cute. This includes the enemies...they are cute. In fact they can be so cute that they can blend into the background easily....especially in the 2nd boss's area. I ran into plenty of enemies and spikes not being able to see them clear enough. Also some enemies tend to run after you and stay on your space hitting you. It is more than annoying. But here is the real verdict for me as to why it gets a thumbs up: if you can get it on sale for a couple bucks..it is definitely worth it. It is fun...in a very retro early Metroid but cutesy way. Its not going to dethrone your top game of all time, but it isn't going to disappoint. So give it a chance if you have a couple bucks laying around. And for the record: #$%@ the snakes, dogs, and gremlins. But mostly #$%@ the dogs!
