Nice work! The art looks amazing and I love the cute sound the gnomes make when you free them. It made me want to free more of them
Nice concept with this one! I think it'd have been nice to have a slightly wider light area to get a better sense of where to go to find more workers. Also, while more workers makes you mine faster, it seems like more workers also meant more clicks, because I couldn't get all my workers to...well, work...unless I clicked on a block a lot. Maybe I missed the reasoning for this, but it felt a little tedious to click so much. That said, I thought the idea was great and well executed (I didn't encounter any bugs), the animations were cute, the block graphics were nice and readable, and I ADORED the happy little noise that happens when you find a new friend. Overall, enjoyed playing for sure!
Thank you for the detailed feedback! :)
It was tested on a smaller map and during the last few hours we made a bigger map with more blocks and gnomes. We kinda missed it, that clicking once for each gnome would become tedious with many gnomes, but you are right about that.
Fun game but I wish I could have jumped up because I went down since I saw a gnome but then I couldn't check the higher areas.
Thanks for the feedback!
Jumping (or any other kind or reasonable way to move ;) ) unfortunately didnt make it into this build. But you are right, this could have saved that little fellow you saw there. :D
Fun and simple. I really liked having a big pack of gnomes to mine for me.
Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it. :)
Love the idea of ordering gnomes around! Only thing I would have liked, would be to direct them all at once, rather than clicking once for every gnome
Thanks for the feedback! I agree that this would probably come in handy once you have many gnomes. :)
