Slime Factory is a 'Reverse Tower Defense' game where you try to protect slimes as they traverse deadly levels full of turrets and traps. To aid you in this you have a small array of tools at your disposal which help you manipulate levels in a variety of ways.
Slimes will die. You cannot save them all, but you can minimize casualties.
Tips:
Tools Hammer: Destroys destructible blocks. Wrench: Rotates certain objects and opens doors. Bomb: Destroys objects in a small area. Block: Places a block that can affect pathing and block lasers.
Use W, S and Space to navigate the menu.
Use the left mouse button to interact with things in-game, right mouse button to cancel a tool.
To run the game, extract the zip file to a folder somewhere and launch the slimefactory.jar (or slimefactory-small.jar) file.
The first few levels introduce the tools and game mechanics. Later levels combine several tools and mechanics and force you to think about how to best use each of them.
Fantastic game, played it through the end. When I saw the opening title I knew it was going to be good. Found the last level very challenging, but completed it through trial and error.
Few UI points: - Why have a keyboard controlled main menu when the game requires a mouse? - The buttons for speed and restart work really well - The tool icons aren't as clear, they could do with being bigger
