Ahah nice game. I win the game but it was a challenge to beat the penultimate gnome. That jump was a bit rough.

I played this on my livestream here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srBde18ASdY

GNOMES IN A TRENCHCOAT! I loved this concept. The opening was fantastic.

The controls are really rough. I guessed you had something like a tablet or touchscreen in mind, but it didn't translate well to computer. I'd love to see a rebuild with new controls.

I win! Some difficulties to understand the drag system, but I finished it! Very unique game, it was a pleasure to play with this. Congrats !

Thanks, I enjoyed that!

Thanks everyone! @occultone @pierallard - I've been working on another build with a better control UI, but I always imagined porting it to mobile

@campbell Hit me up when you finish it, "Gnomes in a Trenchcoat" Amuses me far too much.

Fun game, very enjoyable! I liked also the art and the theme! Good job! :)

The idea is really funny! I had a hard time with controls. Hope to play an updated version (also would love to see an intro when the gnomes prepare their disguise :D )

Amusing theme. One of those "what the hell am I playing games," but hilarious at the same time. Took me a while to realize I had to jump over the gnomes I shot.

Well done!

Hey you :) I played the browser version of Gnome Town and it didn't have any music, just the bgm for shooting. Is that right or was it a browser bug? It got kinda hard after the third gnome 6_6 And I hated SO MUCH when I needed to start jumping lol Anyway, congratz!

campbell 2017-05-03 19:55

@dakikad That's right. I've never made any music before, but that is one of my goals for the next LD.

@jeremy-ryan I have the first jump prompted in the updated version I am working on. Hopefully it helps avoid confusion.

I just realized I can fire arrows almost like a machine gun. Yeeeeeah.

devpaul 2017-05-08 23:47

Well that's an awesome way to start a game! :laughing: I agree with the others that some instructions about the controls would be nice. But its a fun game!

This is a really funny and funny game, I like how you came up with the jumping of dodgy gnomes.
