The pixel art and music were spot on and gave it a great atmosphere. I liked the parallax effect and the way enemies reacted when hit. Controls felt responsive. A solid little platformer, nice work. Also loved how the gnome gets scrubbed out when dies haha

I really liked the art of the game, it's beautiful. I didn't really enjoy the mushroom beating but the game is good overall. I bonded with the main character since I'm a gnome myself :D

Nice game and great art work. You are very talented!

Excellent Game. Nifty parallax effect and i like that when the enemy is being hit, it scampers back a bit to allow the player to recover and get at the enemy again. Nice music and really good pixel art graphics through out the game. Keep up the good work :)

The art style and the music fit perfectly. a nice relaxing platformer with nice snappy controls, well done!

Nice approach to the theme. It is quite nice being a little gnome running around.

Really charming concept and great fit for the "Tiny World" theme! The tiny axe was a fun touch.  Solid work for 10 days!

A very decent platformer, I like the pixel visuals.
I would use only one control (means keyboard) as the mouse seems like a complication here.

Regarding gameplay, it's quite difficult to pass over the first enemies, and it's very easy to die.
Maybe slower enemies at the start and/or place them on more safe place vould help to give player time to learn how to attack them.

Great work creating all the assets youself. the pixel art looks great.

I liked the game. I recommend adding checkpoints and polishing the jump system a bit, since it gets frustrating to die and have to start from scratch. Anyway, I had fun! Great game!

Lovely pixel art and a good all round platformer. Nice job.

I liked the glossy-eyed gnome, I didn't like how the flying ... spiders? pushed you around.

Nice game, thanks!

Thanks for playing! Yeah they were a late last minute addition as the game felt quite empty- I did add a stopping point to their script to help combat that but didn't have time to fine-tune it!

Cool graphism and nice music ! It only miss some checkpoints here and there, but it's a fun game to play !

I'll be honest the level looked a lot smaller in the editor and I underestimated the difficulty xD - thanks for playing and the feedback :)

 It's okay ahah, it add a layer of Hardcore to it, it's not a bad thing. xD

Fun game, I liked the visuals. But please add some checkpoints.

Well, my poor gnome did not make it home because he kept dying.    馃槤

But the graphics were very good and it was fun to play.

Cute game, I love the art especially the background trees

Submitted(+1)

Solid little job!

I had fun with your game i kept playing until i worked out the enemies etc.... as i wanted to make sure i got the gnome home safely. Your graphics are nice and cute music and basic premise/story.

Your gnome reminds me of David the Gnome from the cartoon however i guess the red cap and blue shirt is the most classic gnome look :)

Haha can't say I'm familiar, I based the look on pure memory of what I thought a garden gnome looked like but yes they all tend to share the same vibe! Thanks for playing :)
