A Most Extraordinary Gnome

As life in the forest becomes harder each year, it's up to one small gnome to keep danger at bay. You have to protect the forest, keep the animals safe and drive away the incoming darkness in this gorgeous, hand crafted paper cut-out world. 

Waking up every day as the forest's only protector is not an easy job for anyone. There's not only every animal's personal problem a gnome has to deal with - as mysteriously dark, unprecedented things start happening in the forest; the source of which no one really understands. Fear, escaping and destruction taint the previously peaceful life of the animals. Seemingly only one can stop this - but what can a single gnome really do to save the world?

A Most Extraordinary Gnome is a short, narrative-driven game, which combines challenging and unique 2D action with complex storytelling. You control a small gnome, who uses his hat to defeat the dangers he encounters in increasingly intense stages.

THE ROYAL WRIT

This is the proof of concept version of the game made for Ludum Dare 55.

Sometimes a kingdom's problems can be solved by simple communication. That's why his illustrious highness decided to send out letters summoning some of the troublemakers to to his throneroom. And if the recipients are a little reluctant to accept the invitation? No problem! A little siege never hurt anybody.

The Royal Writ is a tactical card-game and an excellent showcase on how to be a good king.

BYGONE MELODIES

I was sitting on my favorite bench one day, when something curious happened. The clock on the townhall suddenly stopped dead in its track. However unusual that was, I had some time think about the past. My adventures and misadventures - they all came alive before my eyes like it happened yesterday. Back in those days - me and my guitar were the greatest friends.

What happened to us?

 THE RAILROAD TO ELSEWHERE

This train doesn't stop.

You find yourself traveling somewhere inside a run-down railroad car. You know you have to get off at some point, but still - you do everything in your power just to stay a little bit longer. The conductor is watching your every step. He knows who you truly are.


Where is this train really headed?
