Excellent game, perfect visuals, perfect gameplay loop, very addictive, and actually eliminates the biggest issue with cookie clicker games which is arm strain vs interactability. Either you are getting arthritis clicking, or you are sat back doing nothing. But this game lets you get involved at all times without needing to click a lot. I did encounter one bug though, where i purchased little gnomes too much before realizing i needed to go to the bed, it meant i couldn't make more later since the lady never approached the bed.
Very well made, and cute puzzle platformer, some of its mechanics are extremely innovative and i really enjoyed the physics of the ball and the little guys. One thing that stood out to me is how 'clean' it was, there were zero phyics bugs, everything was consistent and how you would expect it to be. Very nice high quality code.
I found this game to be very surreal and messed up. With the almost hotline maiyami gameplay of rushing through rooms and gunning down targets as fast as possible, but combined with the goofy and harmless character model, made it feel like i was playing as a murderer or something especially with the heavy breathing in the music. But it was quite funny and goofy at the same time lol.
This is a pretty good game. Very addicting. I had to stop eventually due to finger strain. I think the game could benefit from a high max fire speed which can be used whilst holding the mouse. I did like that I could shoot very fast to get further and further into the game but it was causing pain to my forearm lol. I found the game pretty meditative to play. I was gradually getting used to where the shots will land so that every shot will hit a wound. They were a bit hard to see as red on red, but i also liked that visual element cause it meant they were stealthy and could sneak up on me. If the game had a bit more juice and visual flair, i could see it being a very fun way to spend time. The music was very good as well.
This game is generally SO GOOD. The gameplay loop is very challenging, but in such a way that you slowly discover more each time. I think there's genuine potential for an amazing full game release if you give the ability to scroll out far, maybe have the camera follow the mouse slightly for long distance combat, maybe give some ui upgrades to see the enemies more effectively. I had a lot of fun slaughtering the little planes and desperately trying to stay alive.
Really well made and engaging gameplay loop, i found myself playing this for a long time trying my best to survive for longer and longer. The idea that you're defending the back yard from things like pigeons and squirrels that look enormous, is very inspired for a gnome game. Thanks for submitting this.
