The Oozing Odessy
Main Mechanics
The slime mold can split into multiple smaller copies to complete tasks, but only one can be controlled at a time.
Splitting allows the slime mold to press multiple buttons simultaneously, enabling puzzle-solving and door-opening.
Its sticky properties let it drag small seeds to bridge gaps or create traps for enemies.
Game setup
Players take on the role of a slime mold hero who once lived peacefully on a mold colony nestled in a corner of bread—until that corner is cut off and tossed into the trash. Now stranded, the player must journey through the perilous and diverse landscape of a kitchen to return home. The game immerses players in the microscopic world of slime mold, offering experiences like splitting, sticking, and navigating the vast culinary jungle in an adventure.
Puzzle Example
The game’s puzzles revolve around activating buttons to open doors, with salt hazards adding a strategic layer by threatening both players and enemies. In Level 4, a unique puzzle uses the slime’s ability to split and shrink, allowing players to fit through a hole that initially appears too large to cross.
