Hi! This is the first entry in the Goo Grotto dev log, a place where I plan to document the choices I make when building the site, share news, and relay the will of the great Amalgam.

What’s Goo Grotto? It’s is a cozy little site on the planet Goopiter that is home to unique creatures called slimes. Slimes have flexible genetics and can combine with each other in a mysterious process known as “squishing” to create a variety of distinct offspring, passing along traits like their shape, colour, and fitness. They are independent and friendly, but they’re also kind of simple. And they are NOT edible, stop asking!

Goo Grotto is also a cozy little site on planet Internet being worked on solely by me, Gen, from the outer reaches of space. You can find me here on BlueSky, here on Tumblr, and I’ll edit this post to add other communication channels as I set them up!

On this blog I will share news, development updates, and write about the things I discover along the way, so check back regularly if you’re interested in following the process. Thanks for your attention so far, and there will be more to come as everything takes shape!
