Rita HouJunior EditorRita HouJunior EditorPublished06 June 2025TagsArt-To-Experience Contest: A Creative Challenge by Emperia and 80 LevelJoin TodaySlime Lab playtests will start soon.Indie developer Retrocell has shared a clip from their upcoming VR game called Slime Lab, developed for Quest 2, Quest 3/3s, and PCVR. The footage showcases precise and satisfying cutting and dying mechanics: As the owner of a slime lab, you'll need to fulfill customer orders and match them as best as you can. Besides headphones, there might be other things to make, like the slime cake shown in this video. The end of the clip literally makes me laugh when you slap the cake onto the customer's face and give yourself a big thumbs-up for doing so. Here's another video demonstrating color mixing in our VR slime game. It gives the sensation of blending different colored doughs and watching them slowly transform into a new color. "Experiment with fluid physics to create endless combinations using unique colors and charms," reads the game's description. Like in reality, you can also add glow effects and tweak the stickiness. Your tools need to be upgraded, and more supplies should be ordered in a timely manner. The better your setup, the more you can create.The developer says that they're looking for playtesters. If you’re interested, join its Discord server to apply when the playtest is ready and don't forget to wishlist the game on your preferred platform.Don't forget to join our 80 Level Talent platform and our new Discord server, follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Telegram, TikTok, and Threads, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.

Looking for playtesters that are interested in point-and-click adventure games and providing feedback. Posted by mixelplixed on May 28th, 2025 Hello there! To celebrate the launch of the trailer for Okinawa Journal, the game has been opened up for playtesting. If anyone is interested in playing the game and providing feedback, please contact me at larry@miga.me or on Discord at Discord.gg. There are several slots open! I've been developing the game for the past 8 months or so and this is the second round of playtesting. My goal is to make something fun and memorable, not too difficult, and not easy to predict. There is quite of bit of lore and character building as well as some light puzzles and interesting interactions. I'm very open to any and all feedback, good and bad, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts! All the best, Larry
