Todd's Adventures in Slime World

About

Todd's Adventures in Slime World casts you as Todd, a space explorer dropped into a squishy alien world crawling with jiggling enemies. This side-scrolling shooter mixes platforming and exploration as you blast, bounce, and collect slime gems through gooey environments. Every level drips with sticky hazards and hidden power-ups while Todd’s arsenal expands with found weapons and quirky tools. The single-player campaign leans into its goofy, gross-out charm with blob bosses and slapstick physics. The game’s rubbery art style and chaotic action stand out, turning its low-poly slime and pixelated squelches into a retro curiosity. Originally released in 1990, it ran on PCs and 90s consoles like Sega Genesis and TurboGrafx-16. Though its multiplayer mode never materialized beyond the manual’s promise, fans appreciate the absurdity and the way each level feels like a slippery obstacle course. A niche pick for those who miss games that embrace their own weirdness without pretense.

Storyline

Todd is a galactic explorer who, while in the Andromeda sector, discovered a starship and downloaded part of the captain's log. The log contains information on Slime World, a world teeming with disgusting life forms and the presence of valuable slime gems.
