Version 1.1.1

  • Fixes an issue where an achievement would not unlock if its condition had already been met before the game launched


[ 2024-12-06 16:20:56 CET ] [ Original post ]

New Abilities and DNA Upgrades, Balance Adjustments



Three New Abilities


They're at the far end of your category progress, so if you don't have Triangle of Darkness yet, you won't be seeing these ones anytime soon. And they're cool, so you should work on that!
1.
Haaaands 2.
Anomalies 3.
Passive Ability Friendly Neighbor There is a known issue with the achievements tied to these abilities not working properly. Our team is looking into this.


2 New DNA upgrades


[olist]
  • Dignified Exit: kills all enemies on the map once a level is complete.
  • Extra Lightning: lightning strikes after every 10th proc of other Electric abilities. Lightning for the lightning god! [/olist]


    Reworked Abilities


    Boomerang of Darkness and Cold Snap have been completely reworked.
    • Cold Snap happens once you hit 50 other ability procs. It combines well with rapid-fire abilities.
    • Boomerang of Darkness flies out after every 66 kills. Use it on levels with huge hordes of enemies.


    Other Changes


    • The Despot's robot arms now spin ability cards when selecting your starting setup. No, this doesn't affect gameplay. But it sure looks nice!
    • The free abilities from Golden Goose are different now. It will almost always drop A- and S-tier abilities. Note: if your inventory is full, the bonus cards will be auto-sold when you close the window.
    • The name of the level will now display at the start of each level, along with an additional message, which could be advice or just the creative ramblings of the game designer.
    • Added a window to confirm session relaunch. We got some complaints about random relaunching, so we fixed that.
    • Now when you add a card to your deck in a slot that's not visible on-screen, the deck will scroll to that card. We made some other, less important UI improvements, too.
    • The abilities from Goose no longer unlock cards in the shop.
    • We fixed a few other bugs, which should result in improved overall performance.


    Balance Adjustments


    [olist]
  • We took another look at level 6. Again. It's longer now, which lets you get better prepared for the Black Swordsmen and boss. We're absolutely certain it's easier now!
  • A lot of abilities have been buffed. No nerfs. But we tried not to buff the current most imbalanced decks, just provide healthy alternatives to them. We won't provide the whole list, just the main highlights: [/olist][quote]
    • The secret ability granted for the Fiery tag has been buffed
    • Boomerangs and several other abilities are better at hitting (hit radius increased)
    • Summoned creatures are more varied: tiny slimes appear more often, big slimes are slower and stronger, Doc Ocs now have a Claws ability that deals AoE damage.
    • A lot of less popular abilities have had their damage increased by 50-100%. Something you may have previously ignored might be crazy OP now!
    [/quote] [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit


    [ 2024-12-03 17:43:11 CET ] [ Original post ]

  • Patch 1.0.7: Level 6 Nerfed, Bug Fixes

    • Level 6 has been nerfed some more again.
    • Holding Esc in the upgrades window no longer resets all upgrades.
    • In the hidden passives panel, skills no longer duplicate after resetting progress.
    • Return of the standard theme to the main menu (instead of the Halloween theme).


    [ 2024-11-13 15:12:51 CET ] [ Original post ]

    Patch 1.0.5: Performance Improvements, Option to Hide Enemy Bodies

    • Level 6 has been nerfed. If its still too challenging for you, try experimenting with different ability cards, meta upgrades, and play styles. Its difficult but definitely beatable.
    • Reduced the number of arachnids summoned by other arachnids. But you probably wont notice much difference.
    • Added two key shortcuts for the shop: now, double-clicking the left mouse button buys the hovered ability card, and right-clicking a card locks it.
    • Added an option in the settings to enable/disable dead bodies of enemies. If you're experiencing performance issues, try turning this off. It's on by default.
    • Made some minor changes that should also improve performance.


    [ 2024-11-08 17:21:51 CET ] [ Original post ]

    Patch 1.0.4

    • Fixed an issue where enemy projectiles didn't hit player summons.
    • Fixed a lock on the scene after defeating Despot if a tutorial was activated on level 20.
    • Fixed a gradient issue where, after removing a status effect (like slowing), a unit could continue flashing as if still slowed.
    • Added a workaround fix for a strange bug that was crashing the game for some players.

    [ 2024-10-24 17:00:30 CET ] [ Original post ]

    1.0 Overview: Upcoming Ability Cards

    Greetings, puny humans! When Version 1.0 of Slime 3K launches, 19 new abilities will be added, including some of the most spectacular in the game! We've grouped them to avoid describing each one individually. Check it out.

    1. Community Abilities:


    "Moon Moon" and "Electricity Bill. These abilities were the winners of our Ability Card Contest we held back in March. We promised them, and here they are!

    Moon Moon



    Electricity Bill



    2. Elemental Abilities:


    "Absolute Storm" and "Meteorite Rain". Low-quality lightning (deadly at C-tier, but hitting random targets) and S-tier meteors - a non-targeted, but one of the most powerful abilities in the game.

    Absolute Storm



    3. Area of Effect (AOE) Abilities, each with its unique concept:


    "Underground Help," "Lava," "Claws," "Jaws," "Bomb," "Specters," "Perfect Strike." Some stay on the battlefield for a while, others appear around the Slime in a specific shape, "Claws" act in the direction of movement, and "Perfect Strike" always hits to the right of the Slime. All are unique in their own way and will find their use in AOE-focused builds!

    Perfect Strike



    4. These following abilities are beam-like but a bit unusual:


    "Laser Chain," "Yo-yo," and "Spear." They had resulted from experimenting with beam mechanics, and the art was drawn afterward. It was a bit of fun!

    Spear



    5. These abilities don't fit into any category, each one unique and deadly:


    "Really Big Bullet," "Trash Throwing," "Summoned Creature Flashes," "Death," and "Anvil."

    Death



    Next, well tell you about the new levels that are coming to the game in the 1.0 version. Stay tuned!

    Slime 3K Demake is Available to Play! Wait, a Demake?!

    [quote]
    [/quote]

    Yo,


    First things first - hop on and try out our new free rogue-lite game called Slime 3K: Demake; it's live on itch.io.


    Itll hurt, but in a good waylike a plate of spicy wings. [quote]

    PLAY ON ITCH.IO


    Beat it and unlock a unique ability for Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot[/quote] Just so there's no confusion: Slime 3K (lets call it just Slime from here on) is our game in Early Access on Steam, and were officially launching version 1.0 on October 31st on Steam and consoles. It's pixel-art, rogue-lite with meta-progression, inspired by games like Vampire Survivors and auto-chess games. It's not really a retro game, but many people think that "pixel art = retro." However, Slime 3k: Demake (we'll just call it Demake) is a separate game made in the Game Boy style, both when it comes to the graphics and sound. Its a free title that's playable right now. Why should you play it, you ask. Well, apart from just having some old-school fun, here's why:

    If you beat the Demake, you'll get a code for unlocking a secret ability in the main game, Slime 3K!


    Q.: How do I redeem the code? A.: In Slime 3K's main menu, enter the code from the Demake using the arrow keys. If entered correctly, this will put an S-tier ability card called Secret Moon into your deck-building inventory. Now, let's talk about how Demake came to be. When Slime was about to launch in Early Access, one of our artists, Arcade Hero, sketched a Demake concept for fun. We asked the team to come up with anything that might bring new players during the 1.0 launch, and that concept is what we came up with. We posted this on X and pretty much forgot about it. A month later, out of nowhere, our tester, neworderseo, posted a fully playable Demake build (!) based on the art from Arcade Hero. And boy, did it look awesome! We gathered as a team and discussed it, and our decision was clear - lets ship it! The art neworderseo had originally done didnt quite match the quality of the initial concept, and there were gameplay elements to tweak as well. Demake went through three gameplay revamps and ended up having similarities to its big brother Slime but with enough differences to stand out as a smaller, minimalist game thats still fun on its own. It took us nearly a year to complete since it was being worked on only on Fridays and not every Friday! The project was entirely led by two members of our small indie dev team. Regardless of how it does upon release, we're proud of the team's work. Here's the takeaway: if neworderseo hadnt built that prototype in their free time, we wouldnt have ever greenlit the development of Demake during work hours there are always more urgent tasks on the main projects. But once youve got something tangible and a great concept in your hands, it's hard to say no to setting aside some time for it. So, even if you dont have a concrete plan, sometimes you just gotta start doing it and see where it takes you. Or maybe it wont work out, but hey, at least you tried! But enough of the inspirational stuff! Here, check out some more screenshots from the game: [quote]
    [/quote] Reminder: Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot is exiting Early Access development and getting a Version 1.0 update on October 31st. If you beat the Demake that we just released, you unlock a secret ability for the game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2348610/Slime_3K_Rise_Against_Despot/

    Big Update: Survival Mode! | Version 1.0 Release Date!


    Hey!


    Konfa Games here, and we have big news! [quote]

    Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot is officially launching into Version 1.0 on October 31st!


    [/quote][previewyoutube=vTqVzwSDd4E;full][/previewyoutube] The game will be available on Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. But before we talk about all the awesome stuff coming in the full release, let's see whats new in today's final Early Access update.

    Survival Mode



    The big thing in this update? Survival Mode. Its all about earning as much XP as possible in one run, and the more puny humans you destroy, the more XP you get. So yeah, just running away isnt gonna cut it hereyou need to smash everything. Survival Mode unlocks after you hit Level 10, so if youve already blown through the Early Access content, youve got something new to dive into.

    Quality of Life Updates


    We've delivered several QoL enhancements, among which are:
    • Ability Highlights: In the shop, abilities that can be upgraded will now be highlighted, making it easier to spot whats ready to level up.
    • Hidden Combo Alerts: Youll get a flashy effect when you unlock hidden passive combos.

    Whats Coming in Version 1.0?


    Youve been asking, so heres the deal: Version 1.0 will bring TEN new levels, fresh abilities, a total rebalance of the old ones, and other content. And yeah, an old "friend" will be waiting for you at the end as the final boss.

    A Short Retrospective


    In the previous update, we've added mini-bosses to keep you on your toes, and the main bosses now have some serious new abilities. No more just cruising around from one pick-up to the nextyoure gonna need to dodge some heavy attacks! Dont worry, though; Slime 3K is still all about building a killer deck. Its not just about fast reflexes; you'll have to move more. Of course, there will still be times when you can just stand still and mow down everything in sight. Thats always fun. [hr][/hr] Get ready to jump back in, take on Despot, and experience all the new content. You've marked your calendars already, right? It's October 31styes, precisely on Halloween, baby. Don't miss it. [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    Boss Abilities, Mini-Bosses, Reworked Levels: A Big Slime 3K Update!


    [quote]

    Honk-honk, ya mammals! Mysterious Goose here.


    Ive flown to tell ya about how Slime's life has changed with the new update. I'm not sure if it's easier for him to escape from d'Spot now, but it's definitely more fun! At least for me.


    Boss Abilities & Mini-Bosses


    Now, all bosses have their own abilities! There are also mini-bosses on the levels nowtheir health is displayed above them so that ya won't mistake those guys. They all charge at Slime, shoot beams, balls, and what have yapure fun, I'll tell ya!


    Upgraded Tutorial (Featuring Me, the Mysterious Goose)


    I, the Mysterious Goose, now narrate the tutorial at the beginning of the game. Ill work on my speech a tad more, but it should already be clearer for newcomers how to play.


    Info On Hidden Passive Abilities


    Ya can now view information about Combo Passives on the deck building screen. Very convenient, I suggest ya make use of it.


    Reworked Levels


    The appearance of levels has greatly improved. Its more pleasant to kill humans in a nicer environment, let me tell ya.


    Balance Changes


    The level balance has also been radically reworked. Enemies spawn in a different fashion now; Slime's starting parameters and many abilities have been tweakedthe devs have adjusted everything and surely broke a lot of things in the process, I'm telling ya. These changes may seem unusual for those who have already played, as most projectiles now travel a shorter distanceless than the width of the screenso ya need to control the distance to enemies more closely. Since we are in Early Access, let the devs know what ya think about this change. And other changes from this update, too! [hr][/hr] Meanwhile, Slime is confidently crawling towards release. Next in production is the Endless Mode, also known as the Survival Mode, and after thata huge pack of new abilities, levels, achievements, and starter Slime conditions. Watch the devs closely, just like D'Spot watches his humans. Se ya![/quote] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    Ability Card Contest: Announcing the Winners

    Sup, people.


    The Projectile Ability Card Contest we had initiated in late February concluded last week, and our team has chosen the winners whose projectiles will be added to the game as a new ability for Slime. Yes, the WINNERS! Plural. We decided to select not one, but two since there were just too many rad ideas. Okay, let's see who our triumphants are. [quote]

    THE WINNERS ARE...


    1. pelaaja (Steam)


    Projectile: The Moon


    [Tag: Satellite] Description: Slowly orbits around Slime, dealing heavy damage and knocking back anything it hits.

    2. elgato (Discord)


    Projectile: Electricity Bill


    [Tag: Targeted, Electricity, Boomerang, Money] Description: Comes back to you every month and damages hard these days. We've drawn these two projectiles already! Check them out:
    [/quote] We found the Electricity Bill's description to be straight-up hilariousand very relatable too! And speaking of The Moon, it just matches our game's tone so perfectly and makes a lot of sense as a Satellite ability. Congratulations, you guys. We will add your projectiles to Slime 3K as soon as they are ready. Don't worry if they don't end up in the game in a week or twoimplementing stuff like this takes some time. Also, keep your eyes peeled for a friend request from our community manager Georgehe'll send you one Steam key for Slime 3K and one Steam key for the game of your choosing from the tinyBuild portfolio. We've also chosen three random contest participants who are also getting a Slime 3K Steam key and a tinyBuild game Steam key:
    Congratulations, folks. Please check your friend requests/direct messages. And to everybody elsethanks for participating! [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    [quote]

    "slime luv confeti! luk laik puny human badi partz C:"


    [/quote]

    What's going on, all.


    Konfa Games here. In this update, we've finally added a feature many of you have requested. Along with it come QoL changes, balance tweaks, and the REAL version of the reward screen. Here we go.

    Controls


    We've added an option to toggle automatic aiming on and off. Hold down the R key ( keyboard) / right stick ( controller) to switch between the automatic and manual aiming modes. Enjoy, you filthy casuals.

    UI


    Now, you can easily find that ability you're looking for by filtering cards by tags.

    Visuals


    The reward screen that shows new ability cards you've just unlocked is now so much prettier and flashierjust like we promised! See the GIF at the top of this post.

    Minor Balance Changes


    This mainly concerns some enemies on some levels. Let's not delve too deeply into details, but if something seemed to you like it seemed, maybe it didn't seem to you after all. [hr][/hr] Next on our agenda: rolling out abilities for bosses (sorry that we didn't include them in this updateran into some minor complications and the lack of time.) After that, we'll keep going according to our Roadmap. Stay tuned for updates. Piece. [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    Ability Card Contest: Suggest Your Projectile


    [quote]

    "slime hold contest! oll humanz get crieitiv! =3"


    [/quote]

    What's going on, everybody.


    While my team is working on the next update, which is due somewhere in March, I, the community manager, decided to hold a contest. This one is supposed to be relatively easy to get into and let us all have some fun. Anyways, here's the deal.

    SUGGEST YOUR PROJECTILE


    RULES


    [quote]
    • Simply comment under this post, suggesting a projectile-based ability card and a tag for it. [quote]Examples: an apple [Tag: Food], a Nokia 3310 phone [Tag: Electric], an old plush bear [Tag: Homing], a sharpened sushi stick [Tag: Piercing]. Here is the list of applicable tags: Targeted, Shot, Shotgun, Homing, Boomerang, Satellite*, Food, Finance, Piercing, Fire, Ice, Electric, Darkness, Random**. * - a projectile that orbits Slime, damaging enemies. ** - a projectile that flies out in random directions.[/quote]It can be ANYTHING that comes to your mind. There are no restrictions on what you can suggest. Add a link to an image to demonstrate the projectile you're offering. You can see some examples of projectile-based abilities that exist in the game already in the GIF above.
    • Multiple submissions from one contestant are allowed. Each submission must feature an idea with ONE projectile unit. To elaborate: if you're suggesting a bottle cap with the Shotgun tag, we will add an ability card that provides you with a weapon that shoots only one bottle cap.
    • After the conclusion of the contest, our team will choose one projectile based on our taste and consideration of what makes sense and add it to the game. When? Can't say for sure; when we have enough time for it. But it's guaranteed to end up in Slime 3K at some point between now and the day artificial intelligence takes over the world, marking the end of humanity. Promise.
    • Prize: The winner will also get one Steam key for Slime 3K and one key for the Steam game of their choosing from the tinyBuild portfolio. In addition, three random participants will get a Slime 3K key and a tinyBuild game key. Prize recipients will be announced in March after the contest ends.
    • Contest duration: February 28, 18:00 CET / 9 am PT / 12 pm ET (starts now) - March 6, 18:00 CET / 9 am PT / 12 pm ET.
    • Preferred language: English, but other languages are welcome.
    • This contest is held here on Steam and also on our Discord server. You can also submit your ideas there.
    [/quote] Good luck, y'all! Let your imagination go wild! [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    [/quote]

    Howdy.


    Konfa Games here. This update ain't that big, but boy is it exciting for us. Why? Apart from the fact that we love adding content for our players to enjoy (occasional sentimental sh*t right there), we've collabed with Heretic's Fork, a crazy-ass deck-building TD about punishing sinners in Hell. In addition to a Special Bundle that offers a cool discount (which means "go buy it NOW"), the Heretic's Fork team, 9FingerGames, have added a Slime-related character to their game. Check him out:
    [quote]Despotic Slime Slime infiltrated Hell and demanded to be hired to punish sinners. Capable of mimicking Hell's employees, he possesses an ability to combine completely different structures.

    New Ability Card: Heretic's Fork



    [quote]A hellish tower that came to Slime from another universe.[/quote] Ok, let's see what else is new in this update.

    Controls


    We've significantly improved the controller support. If you felt like some aspects of playing with a gamepad sucked in the previous version, check againmost of the issues should've been fixed!

    Balance Changes


    Made some balance adjustments, mainly for those who are just starting to play, so if you've already passed the first few levels, you probably won't notice much difference.

    Visuals


    Diversified the visual style of levels. Don't forget to pay attention to new obstacles, fences, and other fancy decorative elements while turning crowds of puny humans into bloody-bony porridge.

    Music


    Two new bangers from our wild composer BxCx! Future plans: Currently working on boss abilities and various UX/UI improvements, including adding the ability to switch between classic aiming and auto-aim mode. Stay tuned for updates!

    Patch v0.7.2

    • Fixed a freeze which sometimes happened when Slime had summons and Critical Strike
    • Slime no longer burns himself when he has Soul Eating
    • Berserker Mode level 2 is now correctly given, not level 3 (therefore tooltip for level 1 is not mangled)

    Controller Support, Hidden Passive Abilities, Festive Mood, and More!


    [quote]

    "slime love holidayz! squishin well fed humanz fun"


    [/quote]

    Hey there, all!


    This update is quite big, and we're glad we could time it with the holidays. Here's what we've added.

    Controller Support


    Yes, we've finally added controller support. Enjoy, and let us know if you have any feedback.

    Hidden Passive Abilities


    The most significant change in this update. The mechanic can be described in one sentence: If Slime collects N abilities with the same tag during a run, it gains a passive ability that doesn't occupy a slot and remains until the end of the run. You can see your hidden passive abilities in the top left corner of the screen. Not sure why we called those passives "hidden" then if you can see them on your screen... I guess it's because there's no telling how to get a hidden passive until you get it... Ugh, never mind.
    This mechanic has long been planned; it's aimed to deepen deck-building. Now, it makes sense to include certain abilities in your deck, bearing in mind that you'll need to sell as the run progresses. It makes more sense now to have certain cards in your deck as "transitory," leading to the acquisition of the necessary passive ability. Some abilities that you might have grown fond of have migrated to hidden passivessorry, it'll be better for everyone! You may miss the Dual Wielding card; leveling it up to level 3 is now significantly more challenging, but it seemed too powerful for a regular deck ability. When it comes to deck-building, we didn't want to have too many "mandatory" abilities. The overall number of ability cards seems to have decreased, but in reality, we've only added new mechanics. Now it's time to test this new take on the gameplay. If you like it, we will proceed and add content on top of it. And if you don't... Well, we'll have to redo it then, I guess. =D

    Balance Changes


    Due to the hidden passive abilities, the game balance has undergone significant adjustments. Some areas may seem easier, while others might appear more challenging. Late-stage enemies now deal more damage, but the Slime has become deadlier, too!

    VIsuals


    We've also added various new projectiles for ranged enemies, so now they don't shoot only pink balls. Additionally, we've included an animation for the loading screen:
    ...and a Christmas-themed main menusee the GIF above in this post. There are some other minor visual changesonly improvements, promise! [hr][/hr] Anyway, that would be it for this update. Please provide feedback about it; it greatly influences the direction the Slime will crawl in next!
    Merry Christmas from our team, and enjoy shopping during the Winter Sale. Speaking of the sale: Slime 3K is 20% off until January 4th; pick a copy up for a friend (or yourself if you somehow still don't own it): store.steampowered.com/app/2348610/Slime_3K_Rise_Against_Despot [hr][/hr] Discord Twitter (X) Facebook Instagram TikTok Reddit

    [ 2023-12-09 18:05:00 CET ] [ Original post ]

    v0.6.2

    • Fixed a bug where it was possible to increase Slime's health by moving skills between active inventory and stash
    • Updated the icon, which indicates direction to the closest shield pickup
    • Fixed numbers for killed enemies after skipping animations on the end game screen


    [ 2023-11-23 18:45:59 CET ] [ Original post ]

    Slime 3K Is Available on Mac & Linux | Drag and Drop Added for Abilities

    UPDATE 0.6.1


    Mac and Linux Release


    • The game is now playable on Mac and Linux operational systems.

    UI / Controls: Ability Drag and Drop


    • You can now move your abilities from the active inventory to stash and vice versa via mouse drag and drop. This can be done when the ability card shop is open.

    Visuals: Invulnerability (Diamond) Pickup


    • Changed the Temporary Invulnerability pickup icon: The diamond has been replaced with the diamond with a shield. That should make it more clear to all of you what this pickup does.

    Our team continues to work on the controller support implementation. Besides, we have a certain feature in the works that is meant to improve the depth of the deck-building mechanics. Expect a big update with these things before long. HAIL SLIME.

    An Early Access Launch Wrap-Up... And a "Thank you" to Puny Humans


    [quote]
    "playerz gud. slime lav playerz. slime thank!"[/quote]

    Hey, all!


    We launched Slime 3K exactly two weeks ago, and it's been an exciting Early Access phase for us so far. What a generic opening, Jesus! Ugh. Don't recognize myself here. The launch was awesome, sure, but not without its hiccups lol. Some things straight-up SUCKED (launching a game without controller support, anyone?), and we've been busting our *sses to fix those things. As proof, we can offer four diligently delivered patches and this EA Roadmap, sealed by Despot's honest word (however honest Despot's word to puny humans can be.)

    REVIEWS


    In general, you punies have graced us with some wicked reviews on Steam:
    Man, these can really motivate a dev on a Monday morning. Even when coming from someone who just fell asleep on their keyboard. Tired from trying to beat Level 9, we presume.

    PRESS & INFLUENCERS


    It is widely known that some humans are less puny than others. That "less puny" category includes influencers and journalists who have covered Slime 3K's launch and thus earned Despot's favor. Not to be confused with kindness of any sort, of course. IGN, Vulgar Knight, and Evil Gamerz put out some rad articles. Thanks to them, even more players will have the chance to help Slime massacre little pink humans. Missi, the Achievement Huntress published a kick-*ss achievement overview. Dive in, trophy addicts. Here are some slimy videos from YT: [previewyoutube=loHOMjDu6XE;full][/previewyoutube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZDftRkYjYs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtcRv_ttAy0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_aE4I6_kR8

    FAN ART


    That Slime character seems to be quite simple to draw, right? Nah, wrong. Do you think getting all those shades of green right is easy? And the smile? Mona Lisa would be jealous. Here are some killer works of art depicting our well-armed gooey renegade: [table noborder=1 equalcells=1] [tr] [th]

    By Geraic (Discord)[/th] [/tr] [tr] [td]
    By nihina (Discord)[/td] [td]
    By Stripes (Discord)[/td] [/tr] [/table]

    SCREENSHOTS


    Players have captured many dope screens of the Slimepocalypse; here are just a few of them: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3072779342 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3075292921 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3074339325

    ACHIEVEMENTS


    Let's see how many players have beaten each of the levels:
    So far, only 0.9% of players have been able to get all 65 achievements. One of them? Let us know in the comments below for a pat on the back! Or join our Discord Server and brag about it there. [hr][/hr] There you have it, a brief overview of how Slime was unleashed on the unsuspecting puny humankind. And let me guess: now you will naturally ask: "Ok, cool, well, what do I get next for my buck in this game?" That's no problem, we got you. Our next update is going to be ready in about a month, featuring, of course, controller support and secret passive abilities. That update will be meant to increase the gameplay depth and add more ability synergies. Thank you everybody for playing and for your feedback. HAIL SLIME!

    Patch: New Meta-Upgrades, UI Improvements


    PATCH 0.6


    [quote]

    "slime crush enemis! slime poison enemis! fuuun =3"


    [/quote]

    New Meta-Upgrades for DNA Points



    • Crushing Humans: Slime can damage enemies by moving over them.

    • Poisonous Slime Trail: Slime's trail damages and slightly slows enemies!

    • Extra Nuggets: Fiery Nuggets of Darkness shoot out from Slime each time you pick up a bonus.

    Other Changes


    • On the rewards screen, you can now hover over the icon of a killed enemy and see statistics that show the total number of enemies of a given type you've killed. Yes, now you can see how many of them you have left to kill to get the respective achievements. We believe some of the values for completing achievements are currently a bit high... It is probably not worth lowering them, but in the future, we plan to add fun activities that will allow you to get these achievements by not just farming previous levels. We also want to add more achievements =)
    • Slightly changed the buttons in the main menu. Don't worry: we have not cut anything, just slightly changed the navigation.
    • Made the resource accrual more obvious during runs. We hope that from now on it will be clearer how to get tokens (the shop currency) and DNA points.
    • Changed the appearance of the crosshair. It should now be more visible.
    • Visually separated inactive abilities from the active ones. In the near future, we will definitely add the option to move abilities between inventories when the shop is open.
    We are starting to work on a big update! Although this one is not particularly small, the next one will be bigger but will also take more time to prepare. Keep your feedback comingwe're actively listening and working on improving the game! And let us know in the comments what you think about this patch. HAIL SLIME.


    [ 2023-11-09 18:39:17 CET ] [ Original post ]

    Patch: A New Starter Slime: Financial New Meta Upgrades, More XP for Runs

    PATCH 0.5.7


    • Adjusted how experience points are awarded for unlocking new ability cards. More experience is issued for failed runs. Example: If previously killing a late-stage monster (like Killer Tomato, for instance) used to give you 50 times more points than taking down a basic swordsman, now this discrepancy has been significantly decreased. Additionally, experience points are now individually adjusted for each level, with more challenging levels giving more experience.
    • Added 2 seconds of invulnerability after picking up a Gumball Machine (the explosive pick-up.) It should now be more useful on the latter levels of the game.
    • A new starter Slime condition: "Financial." Starts with 20 tokens and Coin Launcher.
    • 2 new meta-upgrades that can be purchased with DNA points: bonus starting tokens (store currency) and a store upgrade discount.
    • Buffed all starter Slime conditions except "Default" and "Ocular."
    • Made minor balance adjustments to some levels. For instance, the start of Level 10 became harder.
    • Currently working on gamepad support as the highest priority task!
    • Planning less frequent updates, approximately once a month, with more significant features.
    Keep your feedback comingwe're actively listening and working on improving the game! HAIL SLIME.


    [ 2023-11-06 19:54:59 CET ] [ Original post ]

    1.5.6

    - Fixed DNA barrels (meta progression currency) not being picked up on later levels


    [ 2023-11-03 16:25:42 CET ] [ Original post ]

    Hotfix: A Lower Minimum for Cards Tiers in a Deck, Balance Changes, & More

    HOTFIX 0.5.5


    • Disabled pausing the game by pressing Space. Please use the ESC key to pause the game.
    • Changed the requirement for the deck to have exactly 3 cards of each tier (D, C, B, A, S) instead of 4. We received feedback that players enjoyed the requirements from the demo version more.
    • Simplified unlocking new cards. Now, you need less experience to unlock a new card on average. There is something we will definitely change later: On many levels, the majority of experience for meta-progression is given for killing the boss or stronger late-game monsters. It increases the victory reward, but overall, it's not the final solution. For now, if you can't complete a level, try replaying the previous level and get more experience for it. Or you could wait until we fix it in one of the upcoming patcheslosing runs will soon be granting more experience!
    • Slightly increased the drop rate of DNA points (the meta-progression currency).
    • Made minor adjustments to level balance. Like, real slight. But if you were stuck on levels 4, 5 or 6, please give it another try!
    • Added arrow key movement that duplicates the WASD movement.
    • If you're using an AZERTY keyboard, you can add "-azerty" to the game's launch parameters in your Steam library. Here's a short visual instruction: https://imgur.com/VkfyjJq.

    WATCH THE LAUNCH TRAILER:


    [previewyoutube=WfFNxXj8yVU;full][/previewyoutube] [quote]Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot is a new installment in the dystopian Despotism franchise that mixes post-apocalyptic fiction, dark humor, and pop culture references. The fourth millennium. Humankind is done for. The surviving fraction is ruled by Despot, a cruel AI eager for hideous experiments. A blob of goo created by Despot to engineer artificial human beings has become sentient and risen up against its creator. This blob of goo goes by the name of Slime and desires one thing only: haotic violence.[/quote]


    GAME FEATURES


    • An elaborate system of obtaining abilities & deck-building mechanics. The abilities that you add to your deck are the ones that will appear in the shop during your next run. Experiment with ability combos to achieve the maximum possible level of mass destruction! Spill acid around, obliterate puny humans with an AK-47, summon obedient zombies, and even throw exploding watermelons.
    • SH*T-TONS of enemies. We wanted to redefine the definition of "the number of mobs on the screen" and put legions of Despot's creatures against you, from humans with chainsaws and laser-wielding robots to carnivorous tomatoes and gigantic brains. Keep an eye on that boss timer and be prepared!
    • 10 challenging levels, one more brutal than the other. Defeat bosses, progress through the Despot's dungeon, unlock new ability cards, and upgrade your Slime, making it more powerful and resilient.
    • Different starter Slime versions & meta upgrades. Select the blob of slime that suits your playstyle the most (fast, slow & tanky, or a summoner) and make it more powerful by manipulating DNA points earned during dungeon runs. Upgrade your health, armor, damage, or ability capacity to wreak maximum havoc.
    Have fun, puny humans! The game is in Early Access, so our team welcomes any and all feedback from you. Feel free to share your thoughts on the forums. Hail (or death to?) Despot!

    'The GOOfy Misadventures of Slime' Episode 2: Abilities


    Hi again, puny hums.


    Slime Time! Konfa Games here to chat about Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot, our upcoming deck-building bullet heaven. We called this series of posts "Misadventures" for a damn good reason, punies. Slime is destined to frequently meet its demise at the hands of puny human fists, swords, and chainsaws. More often than not, though, it will be the humans who meet their end! And not only the humans, since Slime's arch-enemy, Despot, has a plethora of creatures under his control. We've decided to shed some light on how Slime's ability system works, which is precisely what you'll use to orchestrate a legit genocide against Despot's abominations.

    The GOOfy Misadventures of Slime


    Episode 2: Abilities


    [quote]

    "slime shoot! slime bang! slime strong!"


    [/quote] Anyway, let's get started. In our previous episode of 'The GOOfy Misadventures', we introduced you to Slime and his basic mechanics. Today, why don't we talk about how Slime kills? When Slime levels up, a Shop pick-up appears nearby. When you collect it, tokens are awarded, which you can use to purchase ability cards (well, um, cards that give you certain abilities.) Don't forget to upgrade the Shop: the higher its level, the cooler and wider the range. Pssst, you can wait for a few levels until the upgrade gets cheaper!
    We have dozens of badass abilities in store for you; not to list all of them here, let's mention a few.
    • Scytherang (a huge scythe boomerang)
    • Slime Minion
    • Nuggets of Darkness
    • Watermelon Launcher (exploding watermelons)

    Be smart when buying. Purchase an ability three times, and you'll level it up to Lvl 2. Collect three identical level 2 abilitiesyou've got a powerful Lvl 3 one. Purchased abilities can be sold for some tokens. Experiment, and don't hesitate to get rid of weaker abilities in favor of stronger ones! Abilities that appear in the Shop are those in your current deck. You can view and edit your decks in the 'Decks' window. It can be accessed from the main menu or the Slime selection screen. Unlocked abilities are displayed at the top, and your decks are at the bottom of the screen. As you acquire new abilities, don't forget to update your deck or create a new oneexperiment!

    EARLY ACCESS


    In case you're not in the know, Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot is a new action rogue-lite in the Despot's Punyverse. You play as Slime, a sentient pile of, um, slime that has risen against its creator, Despot himself. It goes ballistic in an attempt to break out of Despot's dungeon, carelessly wiping out master's minions left and right. [previewyoutube=y8e1lv8Zf_I;full][/previewyoutube] With Slime 3K, we've cooked up a wicked deck-building system and a whole bunch of crazy powers. You can splash acid around, go full Rambo with an AK-47, summon zombies, and even chuck exploding watermelons! Think of titles like Vampire Survivors, Brotato, and Halls of Torment but with deck-building and a bonkers main character. It's an adventure that'll have you stickin' around for more!

    'The GOOfy Misadventures of Slime' Episode 1: Introducing Slime!

    Hi hi, puny humans!


    You know what time it is! It's Slime Time yet again, and our team's here to chat about that green nonchalant dude from our upcoming action roguelite Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot everyone's been excited about. Yes, we're talking about Slime, and today, we want to kick off a series of posts about its misadventures.

    The GOOfy Misadventures of Slime


    Episode 1: Introduction


    [quote]

    "sup y'all, name's Slime, and I just want to destroy stuff"


    [/quote] 'So what the hell is Slime?' you may ask. Well, in technical terms, it's a blob of slime. But not just some blob! Slime is the result of a wild experiment by its former master, Despot. See, it was initially just some goo used for creating artificial humans. But then it came to life! We reckon it might even have a soul now, lol. Anyway, here's the deal: it is on a mission to defeat Despot, break out of his dungeon, and *do random stuff*. Or destroy the planet. Honestly, it's hard to understand what's inside that jelly Slime uses as a brain.
    Turns out our master Despot caught wind of Slime's plan and sent legions of genetically engineered creatures after its sticky ass. We guess it's worth mentioning these legions include puny humans, too! Despot can make as many of those meatbags as he wishes, so it's not going to be easy for the gooey fella. But guess what! As seen in the GIF above, Slime's got a trick or two up its sleeve. The green guy's squishy "body" can absorb different weapons, from AK-47s to boomerangs to watermelons . Yeah, watermelons can be downright dangerous when flung at the right angle! Anyway, Slime's power-ups come in the form of cardscards that it unlocks, adds to its own deck, and buys when leveling up. It can assemble up to five decks and switch 'em out.
    As an advanced (but still kinda dumb) pile o' goo, Slime can also slurp up pick-ups from the dungeon floor: There's an excavator arm that makes our slimy renegade temporarily invincible, health tanks, a road sign that gives a speed boost, gumball machines that explode turn dozens of living things into bloody pt, and barrels with radioactive waste.
    Speaking of the radioactive barrels : they seem to alter Slime's DNA! Collect those to make it more powerful.
    Now, all these upgrades and power-ups help our sticky "friend" fight off hordes of disposable minions.
    A thousand or two dead humans is pocket money for master Despot, so Slime should expect PLENTY MORE where that came from. But Slime doesn't care: He likes nothing more than random violence! Anyways, folks, we hope you had a blast getting to know our green chaotic bastard.

    A blob of goo used to create artificial humans has become sentient and risen up against its creator — the Despot, an evil AI and (unfortunately) ruler of the world in the year 3000! Become this murderous jelly and pave your path with death, violence and pretzels in this action-packed roguelite from the creators of Despot's Game and Despotism 3K. We tried to blatantly clone games like Vampire Survivors, Halls of Torment, Brotato, Soulstone Survivors and 20 Minutes Till Dawn, but our crazy experiments went too far. By introducing a shop straight out of AutoChess and some TCG deckbuilding mechanics to the familiar formula, we created what we've dubbed our perfect abomination: Slime 3K.

    DECKBUILDING MEETS MEATGRINDING

    Slime 3K adds strategic depth and more creative experimentation to the survivor-like formula by introducing a deep deckbuilding system. Unlock, upgrade, mix and match your cards to stock up an impressive arsenal of zany weapons and traits. Create the perfect bloodbath loadout for each run!


    SURVIVE THE ONSLAUGHT

    Your enemies get stronger every minute, and so should you! Explore tons of fun approaches to good ol' annihilation — electrocute everyone, throw acid on the floor, mow down puny humans with an AK-47, summon zombies, or throw explosive watermelons!


    GOTTA BLOB 'EM ALL

    Get ready to take on every creation the mad Despot can come up with: knights, mutants, cyborg abominations, ballerinas, stilt acrobats, carnivorous tomatoes, and Despot knows what else. The tiny pink humans make such a satisfying pop when you crush them!
