an incremental in a jam, bold. gnomes harvesting, gold ticking up and that rickety crane in the back with "UPGRADE! (click)" keep you clicking. would be nice to see which old tech each upgrade unlocks

Yeeting gnomes to harvest crops is obviously a brilliant idea. Probably a bit dangerous in real life, which might explain why they went extinct. Loved the vibe, and it was super easy to pick up! Such a good fit for a game jam.
Gnomes, wood, and catapults, a great combination! jaja! I really liked the game concept; it’s very fun. I think with a bit more artistic polish, it would look fantastic. It would be great to be able to move across the scene from right to left, watching the gnomes get into mischief or fight with rabbits over carrots jaja! Excellent entry! xD
300 gnomes Screenshot 2026-10-20 002250.png Simple gameplay loop, but super satisfying to throw my gnomes.
idk why but I couldn’t stop laughing while playing this. love how weird this design is! it’d be nice if zooming in and out were controlled by the mouse wheel instead of keys, so you could zoom in and explore things more freely :)
I didn't understand the concept at first, but then I found it amusing to see flying gnomes and the principle of buying things to improve your plantation.
This was very enjoyable! These incremental games just have an inherent satisfaction to them. You just want more stuff :D Some sounds and/or music would have been amazing, but otherwise I thought this was a very nice and polished game. Really well done ^.^
Great job, your game I loved playing it, cool
Great, short, simple. It has one major flaw... it's extremely addictive! How am I supposed play more games if I spend like an hour + on this one ⏲️ :P Sprite-0004.png
The combination of tiny gnomes and industrial farming seems hilariously bizarre, which I loved about the overall aesthetic. It's really fun seeing how the little guys are deployed for the harvest and those upgrade mechanisms. Great entry!
Such a charming and cozy game! The little pixel gnome and the wooden construction contraptions look super cute. The incremental loop actually works really well, and you can definitely feel that extra polish in the presentation. Really glad you got it submitted! Left full ratings! If you have a minute later to check out more jam projects, we’d love if you took a look at our game Meow Bomb as well. Best of luck with the jam!
This is so meditative. Good game tho

A pleasant incremental game. I got as far as three trebuchets. It’s great that everything happening is explained visually, from the seed throwing to the carrot growing. By the end, it’s really satisfying to watch the rain of gnomes
Fun little game, I like the gnomes+catapult+carrot combo, very innovative! I'm not used to incremental games so I don't know what could be done mechanically, but some small UX QoL improvements would greatly improve your game imho: mouse wheel to zoom in/out, hold left click to pan the camera.
The best kind of gnome is a flying gnome! 😁
