Video Summary
We see the video from the perspective of the player. The video starts with the player standing in a field surrounded by slimes. The player looks around and then starts running along a dirt path. The player realizes that they are running the wrong way so they turn around and start running back. On the way, the player encounters many slimes. Eventually, the player arrives at a building that looks like a large greenhouse. The player enters the front entrance. Inside, there even more species of slimes. The player exits the building through the other end of the building and runs down a narrow path that lead to an area with many fruit trees. Underneath each tree is an abundance of fruits. The player starts to collect the fruits. The player gathers so much fruit that they can no longer hold any more. The player makes their way back along the narrow path that they originally came from. The player arrives at the greenhouse again, but instead of heading inside, the player walks along the side of the building. The player arrives at the entrance of a cave. Inside the cave, we see slimes which are sensitive to light. The player enters the cave and feed the slimes using the fruits that they had gathered. We can see that the slimes are very irritated and hungry, but after being fed, they are happy. The video ends after the player has fed every slime in the cave.
