Ball

From SlimeWiki

A "Ball" is a creature used by slimes for food and religeous ceremonies (sports). Is is not well-known as they seem to create constant energy by themselves (violating the Law of Conservation Of Energy).

This diagram shows 1 a stretchy exterior for accelerating and slowing down for escape attempts when the slime does a Flip (and after the game is done). This will be explained later. The energy is expelled (but not taken in) through the 2 energy vessels. This energy supposedly comes from the 3 energy source, which could possibly be 3-dimensional, offering unlimited 2-dimensional energy as long as some energy is stored there.

Explaining the Flip and Dodgy Translations

We know that either the slimes are 2D (unlike the game Slime 3D) and the ball is 3D or the slimes are 3D and the space around them is 2D. However, the existance of Flips and Dodgy Translations proves the former, as well as that the net is 2D.

The back of the Ball stretches and the ball goes into the invisible 3rd dimension

-o-

The Ball rapidly unstretches its back and fires almost instantly around the net

The Ball fires back to its original space by stretching its back the same way (while stretching the other side to slow down). This
whole process takes less than 1 frame of any slime game to complete.

The Ball stretches in the same way it did in the dodgy translation (we can't see it) and is instantly pulled back, propelling the
Ball to an incredible speed.

The Ball's sides stretch out on the bottom, but are instantly pulled in again to increase speed even more. Since the Ball is the
only thing in the third dimension of its world, drag isn't a problem.

The Ball counters both stretches while powering itself back into the second dimension. Again, the whole process takes less than one
frame of any slime game.
