Most of Slime Rancher's development was done by two people (we're four now, thanks to your support!) so a lot of decisions were made early on to allow two developers to make a game in a realistic timeframe. One of those decisions was multiplayer vs singleplayer.
Multiplayer is inherently more complicated and time-consuming to develop. And the hundreds of physics-enabled slimes bouncing around on screen needing to be in sync across two or more clients is a fantastically difficult problem to solve. So we decided to focus on solid single player experience.
For this reason we've stated in our official FAQ that Slime Rancher is being developed as a singleplayer game and there are no plans for multiplayer. However, anything is possible further out (beyond v1.0) if we continue to see the same level of wonderful support from players as we do now. So thanks for everything so far!
So in short, multiplayer is not ruled out, but we can't promise it either. And it is worth restating that multiplayer with all of the physics in SR is a very hard problem. SR is a very unconventional game and multiplayer support would require a very creative solution.
So thank you again for all your support and feedback. We're just as excited as you are to see what comes to the Far, Far Range next!

I'm spending more time just trying to get them all home than with my slimes. I think we should also be able to carry the same thing in multiple slots (ex. carrots maxed out one slot then spill to the next one)

1: I do actually have an idea, the Spark slime the spark slime is yellow.They shock themselves every so often and turn light blue when it happens.The shock would hurt the player. They could be used to open electrical gates but you'd need a certain amount.Their plort could be around 30-45.It eats fruit and meat.It's favorite is pogofruit. By the way I don't know where they should spawn yet.
2: Switch the puddle slimes back to there original form I miss the cute puddle slimes I know.
3: I had 1 more ideas
the tiny slime is one of my ideas it was easy to come up with and now i can tell you about. Him he is is is ovbiousely tiny. He only eats fruits and vegetables his favorite food are carrots. He spawns in the jungle.Him and his plort are pink and tiny.When you make tiny largos it's as if you mixed it with a pink slime but smaller.If this guy gets fussed with a pink slime a tar will come.Lastly his plort is $51.
