Hey everyone!
So you know how to use slime, and super slime, to mutate a whole range of crops. The question is, why are you in Planimal Point? Here's an overview of how slimes fit into the story of Monster Harvest, and their significance to the town of Planimal Point
The world of Monster Harvest takes place in a new town called Planimal Point. The town has popped up around the discovery of Slimes (which we talked about in our last blog). We were inspired by gold rush style towns that popped up in California and the Yukon where people would rush to get in on the start of new communities. These town's were hapharzardly built and we wanted to reflect that look in the game.
Slimes are a magical and semi-conscious substance that has strange effects on plant life. Different Slimes can mutate plants into different creatures or even more exotic versions of plants. Planimals can be used to help the player battle enemies in dungeons but some mutations will produce livestock and even mounts to ride around on. The player's uncle, Professor Spark, discovered the Slimes and his lab is right in the center of town.
A lot of people have come to Planimal Point and for different reasons. Many have come to open shops and start new lives, but one has come to exploit the Slimes. Rigley works for the evil SlimeCo. Pumping, a company looking to take advantage of Slimes for nefarious purposes...
In order to stop SlimeCo. the player must delve deep into the dungeon with the help of their Planimals!
