Version 0.3.0 BETA is now available for download! This release is leaps and bound ahead from the previous one. I would love to hear your feedback so I can make the game better. Please read on for the complete features.


Gnome More War BETA v0.3.0

New Map Selection Screen

I enhanced the presentation to make it look and feel more like you're in a fantasy world. Select the locations presented as map pins and choose which map you wish to do battle on.

Map Overhaul

The three (3) maps from the Alpha build were redesigned. Every 5 waves there is a change of scenery or map variants, to keep the gameplay always interesting. Objects called map blockers have been added to bump up the challenge.

New Maps

New maps have been added. These are Irolan Village, So'leil Fishing Village, and Eggo City. Each one presents a different challenge to the player.

Boss Fights

On the fifth wave a boss will appear. Some examples of these bosses are the Waspis Queen and the Sky Pirate gnome. Each boss has their own set of abilities and attack pattern.

War Room

You get a War Room screen, where you have access to all sorts of stuff like upgrades, power-ups, and healing.

Power-up Loadout

In the alpha, you get a fixed set of power-ups that you need to collect and use. In this new build, I have expanded the number of power-ups. You will need to unlock these and add them to your load-out so that they will appear during battle.

Abilities

Inspired by some roguelikes such as Vampire Survivor, after gaining certain points from popping balloons and shooting down enemies, you get to pick from a range of abilities that will increase your chance of survival. These abilities go up to level 10. Pick and match as you please, or just get the coins while waiting for your desired ability to show up.

Upgrade Deck

The concept here is that you are enlisting the help of your goblin friends. Build your upgrades deck using cards with their faces on it. You can only equip cards with unique faces. Each goblin has their own specialty, like one that is focused on Barn resources, while the other is focused on armor, and so on.

Cart Skins

You can now unlock new cart skins instead of getting stuck with the default Basket cart.

I have put a tremendous amount of time and effort on this, spanning across 5 years! It was a wonderful journey, and it's far from over. I'd be very happy if you could join me on this one and give feedback as much as possible. Thanks!

Today's weekend showcase is a concept art of one of the levels: Eggo City. #screenshotsaturday #art #conceptart

The journey is almost complete! Check out this comparison images of the mobile version and the new and enhanced version for PC. #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Dug up these old concept arts. I will redraw these and add to the game. Players will be able to build structures to unlock features and upgrades. There's also a bit of farming and pet raising. What do you guys think?

This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates Baldi's Basics in Education and Learning! Accept the quest in your quest log to get started.

Using Unity's Timeline tool, I added short cutscenes to tell the story of the game. I don't know why the music gets cut off though. This only happens when I use Unity Recorder but in actual it's fine. #gamedev #madewithunity #screenshotsaturday

Inayah - Life After Gods is OUT NOW on Steam!

For this week's progress here's a gameplay of the So'leil fishing village map. #gnomemorewar #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #retrogaming

For this week's #screenshotsaturday I present Magic Circle Hex. At its max level it has a 5% chance (can be boosted by LUCK) to turn enemies into a chicken. Gnomes will be tricked into picking these up instead of stealing from the barn.

@FatBombStudios is a CCC+ Studio that makes games you love but don't know about!

We think you SHOULD know about them so complete the quest!

Here's a chart of all enemies in Gnome More War. Unless marked, all enemies are unlockable in the Switch, Android, and Gamejolt(PC) versions. #gamedev #pixelart
