Slime Rancher is a hard game to categorise, it looks cute in a way that makes me want to play it, and you capture pokemon like slimes to mess about with.

I was rather happy to see Linux listed on the main website and presskit, so looks like it's headed our way too folks.

About the game
Slime Rancher is the tale of Beatrix LeBeau, a plucky, young rancher who sets out for a life a thousand light years away from Earth on the 'Far, Far Range' where she tries her hand at making a living wrangling slimes. With a can-do attitude, plenty of grit, and her trusty vacpack, Beatrix attempts to stake a claim, amass a fortune, and avoid the continual peril that looms from the rolling, jiggling avalanche of slimes around every corner.

Features
- Use your vacpack to vac up and shoot out anything you see!
- Explore a big, wild world in style... jetpack style.
- Your very own ranch to call home and customize!
- Countless slimes everywhere. Maybe too many if we're being honest.
- Create new slime types using slime science and PROFIT!
- Push your slime science experiments too far and PERISH!

Pokemon-like? I'd say they look more like baby Digimon :D

Reminds me a bit of The Maw. Looks neat.

Love it! Has a distinct charm to it. I like the properties-based approach with the different slimes.

I get some strong Elebits vibes from this... That was an early Wii title which I haven't played since shortly after it released, so I can't quite recall how it played or anything like that, just this was the first thing that popped in my head.

I like the look of this, I love FPS (first person slimer) games. Something a little different for me.

The sounds of the Slimes reminds me of Pikmins when you throw them.
