Find the Food! Save the World!
A downloadable game
Made for the 2023 Gain Jam on WeightGaming.com.
Journey as a Slime, tasked with reclaiming the food stolen by the evil demon queen!
As you collect food, your body will grow and slow down until you deliver it back to the village. Careful not to venture too far or you might end up pushing past your limits!
Controls are in game. But, to make life easier.
Arrow Keys to Move
Space Bar to execute a small dash (or talk with people if you are close enough)
X to use your attack
Version 1.1 Changelog:
- Fixed collision (hopefully enemies shouldn't fling you into the wall)
- Fixed repeating dialogue (the player sprite will automatically move out of range to prevent repeated dialogue)
- Fixed issue with Demon Queen health set far too low
- Changed intervals at which the villager and Queen in the village gain, allowing for an easier time of seeing all the stages.
- Changed the attack hitbox on the player character (should be easier to hit things now)
Note:
There is a slight bug when clicking begin game right at the start. Clicking it a second time will allow it to work properly (not sure why it loops back to the beginning...)

what app do i need to unzip?
WinRar, 7Zip or even the base windows extract should do it.
Just right click and click extract all and just click the EXE to run the game :)
ok, thanks you
but can it be downloaded on an android phone?
sadly no. It’s built only for PC at the moment. You may be able to play it through an emulator program on android but I’m not 100% sure sadly :(
Had good fun, games rough around the edges and there really need some sound balancing but overall the idea is there :)
thank you for your hard work. 2nd person in the game? Is it a bug that you can't finish the conversation when you talk to the child? there is.
Yeah, it's mainly cause the player is in range for the script to trigger. I'll be posting some fixes soon!
Well, it could be better.
In addition to the problem with the girl at the third house, there are others:
1 Camera. It is not assigned to the character, which is why at the first stage you can crash into the enemy without seeing what's next. A trifle, but still unpleasant.
2 Sometimes the opponent pushes you into the wall and there is a great chance that you will not get out of it, only if you are thrown out of the wall you will be able to move away.
3. The character himself is higher than in the first stage. Because of this, it is unclear how to beat the enemy in first. The down kick doesn't work, the side kick doesn't always work, only the up kick works fine. Only when the stage increases, everything becomes normal.
4. Is it normal that a giant woman at the end of the dungeon is killed with a couple of blows?
5. I would like a gallery or something like that so that you could see all the stages of weight gain, including those that you missed.
1. It’s weird cause the camera is attached to the player, so not sure why it can’t keep up (I might increase the viewport size so that doesn’t happen.
2. I sadly don’t know how to fix this. One issue when being a noob at game maker studio. Only picked it up this week, so a lot of the concepts are new. I might try fiddle with stuff and hopefully that works.
3. That’s just my poor sprite making on show. I’m going to try line them up better so the hit boxes are smoother.
4. No :( that’s my fault. I was testing and forgot to change the default values back.
5. I plan on slowing them down, so they happen more gradually and they don’t get missed.
there is a bug where if you talk with the girl near the 3rd house without having food the dialog doesnt end.
damn. The dialogue is a little sketchy I will admit. Was harder than I liked to program in.
Can you make controls suitable for one hand gaming pls?
I can try. I’ll play around with the button config
Can you please add NSFW and RPG Maker tags on this?
oh I totally forgot those! Thanks! Will do
Also, the RPG Maker aspect is just some of the sprites. It's made in Game Maker (but ill add that instead)
so for the second girl you can talk to she gets stuck on a repeating dialog about forgetting food
Damn :/
The touch control is a little finicky. I’ll see if I can add a pause or something so it doesn’t loop like that.
