🎮 Key Features & Interactions

• Dynamic Slime Interaction: Pick up slimes using ray or direct interaction. You can feed them hotdogs (eating sounds) or bananas (toggle slimes gravity).
• Two-Handed Transformation: Physically grab a slime with both hands to stretch it larger or pinch it smaller. The slime's audio pitch changes dynamically based on its size.
• Gadgets & Tools:
  • Slime Blaster: Load multiple foods or slimes into a gun and launch them.
  • Dispensers: Spawn specific food or random slimes (with a rare chance for a King Slime).
  • Slime Bat: Hit a slime to split it into two smaller half-sized slimes.
  • Locomotion: Toggle between teleportation and continuous movement based on comfort preference.
