Slime-San has charm jumping off the screen, offers over 300 unique levels, and has an easier learning curve than more traditional games in this genre.
Controls

The control scheme is tight and responsive with full controller support and re-bindable keys. all of the keys are already bound to several options that feel comfortable, and the controls overall feel comfortable. the speed is dialed in perfectly, with the jumps and wall drags feeling comfortable and effective.
Accessibility
Players who bring up Accessibility mostly praise it.

Extra points for having *lots* of colorblind options as well, which I needed to see the dialogue.
