Nice! The visual design is very charming and I like the self-balancing difficulty.
thanks! It started as a happy bug and it quickly reminded me of how space invader speeded up after you killed a couple of invaders
Great character design and animation.
i m glad you like it, i was wondering if the animation was good enough
Love the combination of characters to make the gnomes, genius!
thanks it was the first thing done :)
ditto, elegant use of characters!
Thanks :)
I love it for less than 560 word its really good
thanks. I hope it was fun to play. It's a 558 char count, though :)
