Slime Rancher nacque nell'appartamento di Nick Popovich, fondatore di Monomi Park. Popovich era un artista e designer, non un programmatore, e per il prototipo usò codice scritto da altri, finché coinvolse il direttore tecnico Mike Thomas.

Lavoravano otto ore al giorno, una regola che Popovich mantenne anche con i dipendenti di Monomi Park per evitare il crunch. Il gioco doveva entrare in accesso anticipato dopo un anno, ma ci arrivò con sei mesi di ritardo, nel 2016, e uscì in versione completa nel 2017.
