[Slimekeep Devlog #51]
In this video I added a bunch of new stuff to Slimekeep, including new weapons, a new slime outline system, and a new start screen. I also worked on build size optimization, greatly reducing the build size of Slimekeep.
About me:
Hey, I'm BenBonk, an indie game developer who uses the Unity Engine. I've made and released many small games before on my itch page, though now I'm attempting to make my first commercial game, Slimekeep. Slimekeep is a roguelike, using a very limited color palette, similar to Enter the Gungeon, though with a few interesting mechanics, such as keeping slimes alive longer will earn you more money, and the ability to capture slimes to power up your slime pet. If you enjoyed anything you saw, please consider subscribing, as it really helps me out.

Dang, Wonder who did a whole rant about the boat section 👀 All Jokes aside this looks really cool, and Dualies always make a game a 10/10 in my eyes. Of course its a mandatory practice for me to give idea so ill focus on Unlockable by doing a task type guns. Mech Arm, Unlocks after beating the mech boss. A high fireing, Strong weapon that is incredibly rare and has a long recharge time. Slime Gun, Unlocks after killing 500 slimes. A Beam like weapon that shoots slime at the enemy Achilles Sword, Unlocks After beating the Slime Samerai. A short range weapon that does the most damage to the back of enemies. Not conecting A hit would send you backwards. Boombox, Unlocked after beating DJ slime. The boombox would have a faint music and timing your attacks to the beat does extra damage. Regal Gun, Unlocks After beating slime king. This gun is no different from the base gun, but it shoots crowns. How fancy Benbonk Gun, Unlocks after Typing "BenBonk" in the lobby area. 2 damage fast gun that when fired uses your voice. Thats all I came up with today

Hey Benbonk, this was an especially great devlog, I love how you truly do take note of feedback. I just have a weapon idea I would like to share, firstly I would like to say I totally understand if your skeptical about the idea because I havent made any drawings of it or put it on discord ort anything. But I think it would be cool to have like a "Medusa's head" weapon that would shoot little snakes and would freeze an enemy on impact for a short duration of time, this could also instead be like a "Midas' touch" weapon that would turn the slimes gold for a short time, but also since its gold, it would give more slimeballs when killed. Im not sure how you feel about these but its just smth I came up with. Keep up the great work!

this looks SICK and is very high quality. the art is quite nice, but isn't too crazy or complex. i absolutely l o v e roguelikes, so looking forward to seeing how this turns out. anyhow, ima just throw random things down here for absolutely no reason weapons or smth Chaotic Singularity: Sends a random projectile from any currently unlocked weapons. The cooldown is dependent on the projectile used. Bullet Hell: Fires several circular waves of projectiles that bounce off of walls. Can only be used once per room. Beam Up: Beams up any non-boss enemy. The enemy is dropped into the room you're in after five rooms (or the final rooms if no further rooms exist). tl;dr a temporary skip button Self-Destruct: Gain an extra life. Upon being hit, instantly explode and clear the room you're in. funni slime guys Seekers: Slimes that can melt into the ground, reforming next to the player before attacking. If struck, it is stunned and unable to melt for a few seconds. Seekers can follow you into other rooms, but not boss rooms. Replicator: Boss slime that copies your weapons and items. Shifter: literally just a normal slime, but it's a random non-green color. why? imagine just seeing a jarringly purple slime randomly. even better if it's REALLY rare

The death screen definitely needs a better animation. I think you should have your charecter melt into slime as slime starts splatting the screen until it's all covered before the actual death board scrolls down a bit slower and its corners also splatted with slime. Other transitions could be slime filling your screen from the bottom, or a massive slime could jump on the screen before jumping away and revealing the death screen

I'm not a Unity expert, but I got a couple ideas. - Is it possible to convert the audio from Vorbis to Opus? This would let you save even more space. - PNG files can be run through something like PngGauntlet to reduce their filesize losslessly. - That’s an awful lot of green. If you add a slightly cooler hue to darker shades, and a slightly warmer hue to lighter shades, it might make it look a bit less monochromatic.

Hey Benbonk, I have a weapon suggestion that I really wanted to tell you because I think it would be fun and would fit the flow of the game. (Plus, a good portion of this video was talking about new weapons) So I was wondering if you could make a shield/weapon. I'm thinking like a glock that has a shield at the end, ya know? It shoots pretty quickly with not much damage. But the cool thing that would make the weapon stand out is that if you dash, at the end of the dash, a shield will pop up, which can take a good few enemy projectiles before breaking. It'll also go down after 5 seconds and can be disabled by clicking the left mouse. (It's up to you if you make my weapon idea or not and you can make tweaks and adjustments to it, but things like the spears from the royal guards in the King slime bossfight would go through the shield for balancing so it isn't too op). Thanks for listening, and I think the new changes you made were spectacular (especially the slime outlines). Thanks for another great devlog!!

Large sized games get warnings when trying to download over a cellular connection. You can obviously still download, but ideally if you can get under this then you save your users any concern.

Not sure if this would fit the play style of the base game, but a weapon that you could control the direction of the bullet after you fire it would be sick. The downside of it is that it would stop the player from moving. Would be fun to clear out rooms with, while also having the risk reward factor of not being able to protect yourself. However, it could be hard to implement and might be op if not made right but it was just an idea I had.

Even weapons with crazy knockback or weapons that could pierce through enemies would be really interesting to see

I actually do have a weapon like this in the game right now, and an upgrade called "Remote Control" which allows you to control all bullets with your mouse :)

The bazooka is a cool weapon, but its not really a boozka. Making it something like a remote instead would be cool

i think a really cool feature would be to change the main color/theme of the game like if I wanted the game to be purple, dark blue, or something. Basically replace the green with the chosen color. Because not everyone likes how green looks.

Idk if it’s just me who thinks this, but doesn’t it make more sense for the slimes to start big and give more slimeballs and the more time you use for each slimes the smaller and less slimeballs you get

I can understand wanting to make the boss room always available, but I kinda feel like, to discourage beating the game on day 1, you should make a system for upgrading the player's base stats (like more available dash bars, or base HP, or dash range etc.) so that the boss fight is nearly impossible to win without gathering more buffs. Idk, that might just be me
@Splash029
@Splash029 Ай бұрын
well, the boss is already very hard by default. And when the player plays the game he gets wayy better guns and stats to make the bossfight easier

Hey Ben, love your videos! Unpopular opinion: The game could change its color palette. The one thing that makes me know I won't be playing the game is that my eyes get tired, and my head hurts with the vivid green just by watching the video. Imagine playing it! The game would benefit a lot from adding other colors and then applying a green filter, so we would have different tones of green with different intensities. Also, it would help with the differentiation of enemy slimes.

Hey, I saw your reply, in another comment, but yes you can change the color palette in the graphics settings. I know the game is only 4 colors, and it might not be everyone's cup of tea as it is too late to add more colors into the game, but I tried my best to make the game as customizable as I could.
