Available in Early Access now on Steam, Slime Rancher has been generally noted as light on content, but rich in awesome/cute graphics and music, and having a base game concept that should be easily expandable into an amazing game.



Step 1: Suck slimes
Step 2: Corral slimes
Step 3: Feed food to slimes
Step 4: Gather slime poop
Step 5: Feed slime poop to other slimes
Step 6: ???
Step 7: Profit!

Makes me wonder, whatever did happen to that cat breeding game?

Those are probably the cutest slimes I've ever seen in a game.

And cat-slimes? PURE GENIUS.

Man damn this game for two reasons

1) Where are the monster rancher-esk games!?!

2) Damn this game for being so adorable!

Reminds me of the cuteness of "baby digimons" (and Digimon World I), for some reason. PTW

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

Must... Resist... PURCHASE.
Honestly, the $20 price tag was a turn off for me. If it goes down, then I'd consider it, but for what it is now, I'm not too keen on dropping that much money for it.

True, but I'm flush as all hell with my student loan and it's too damn cute.

I feel bad for that slime in the back. It's all like, "Aww, all the kittyslimes having fun without me!"

I dunno, seems more like horror... "Abominations those slime-kitties."

You don't actually breed slimes, but other than that, the alpha is promising.

The only annoying part is moving large amounts of things around.

Woohoo, breeding slimes!

Slimes must be polyploids, don't you think?  Autopolyploid is pretty obvious, but based on the screenshot, they also exhibit allopolyploid ability -- how else could a slime grow cat-ears?

Probably at the start we can only make natural crossbreeds, but eventually we'll get something like the Gene Machine that Elona has, letting us insert and remove arbitrary gametes!  Exciting!

You don't actually breed slimes,

Buh... buh... wha?

Why else would you want this game, except to figure out the proper breeding sequence to get a Pristine Giant Rainbow Slime ?
