    More importantly: the slimes are so damn cute
    I discovered this channel recently, and it's great! Deserve more views. Patch Quest looks great too

    also there is a risk/reward element because of slime stress reactions: such as dervish slimes making Dust devils and mosaic slimes making firestorms.

    Great analysis! I couldn't put my finger on exactly why I thought slime rancher was such a satisfying experience, but you hit the nail on the head.

    He goes from ranching the first pink slimes to carrying around a Kokakabadobadoba thingy in the Primal area

    I swear this guy could review a minesweeper clone and i'd still be interested in buying it

    I agree with everything you said. Great design and very fun. The game really started feeling empty towards the end.

    Woah!
    This is a very good review of slime rancher
    Personally I love the game
    Also are you considering reviewing satisfactory ?
    Last note; I noticed you used blitz footage, I also wanted to use it in the past but I didnt cause he doesnt allow it (Its written in about page). Just letting you know incase he minds

      Hey, thanks for letting me know about that. I'll avoid using his content for clips in the future.
      I'm pretty sure my video falls under fair use because, rather than being a straight reupload, it's a transformative work made from lots of different sources and my own elements, and it's for educational purposes. Still, out of respect for blitz I won't use his channel again.
      And yes - I'm considering covering Satisfactory! Although I wouldn't want to just repeat everything I said in my Factorio video.

    As a game designer wondering what all he can do to add some tranquility to his dream FPS, this video brought a tiny tear to my eye. (Unfortunately it's not in development right now, but it will be later).

    Great design analysis as usual! The topic of elegant design and multi functional elements comes up A LOT when reading about game design. This is a great example of that.

    I never knew the game was this deep. I dropped it after a few minutes due to being too shallow. Now, I feel like I missed out.

    Can you please do for one video for oxygen not included?

    However there's no piggy-backing. I went back to this game after a year without playing, and I had no idea how to do anything.

    Gaggle of slimes? I wished people were as cute as those but no.

      I've always felt that there was too much to digest at once. Quests? Making machines? There are teleporters now? Did I miss something!!!?
