Slime Rancher - Rush Mode - 713,211 Points (v1.3.0)

Well, this render sure did turn out fuzzy. Oh well.

With the Automatic Update, Slime Rancher's Rush Mode now lets you use Drones to help out around the ranch! The possibilities are exciting, since these little helpers will give players much more time to move around, as opposed to spending 6 minutes at a time sitting in front of corrals emptying plort collectors.

This run uses a very similar build to my 509k-point run that I uploaded earlier. With the addition of drones throughout my ranch and some slick Gold Slime juggling, I manage to score over 200k points higher! (For more context - my highest non-recorded score before the addition of Drones was 684,051 points.)

The best way forward from here, in my view, is to start sprawling out the ranch more - using more of the Grotto's space, and perhaps expanding into the Lab area. That way, it may be possible to wrangle even more Desert slimes on the ranch, or even to keep some of those Quantum and/or Hunter largoes around instead of getting rid of them. Time to experiment!

--- A note on Gold Gordoes and how to pop 'em (from an old reply comment i wrote for this video):
"some tricks I used during this video are:
- vaccing the center of the gordo as it bursts (so that the spawning gold slimes and crates are immediately caught in the stream, instead of flying everywhere),
- making sure the gordo was between myself and a wall, and
- "juggling" the slimes with the vac after every few shots.
all of that keeps the gold slimes close to me, making it easier to land more shots, more often."
