Hey! Thanks for the feedback, I agree with your criticism :)
I think I'm going to work the next few weeks on getting the core gameplay down a bit better and connecting all the things I put in.
I'm thinking of making an energy system for the gnomes so the player needs to use all their available gnomes more.
And adding things like a bonus for connecting 6 or more gnomes.
If you want I can update you when i'm dropping the new demo, i'd like your feedback :)!
