Gnome Escape

gNOme Escape

Backstory

You are a garden gnome trapped in the yard of an abandoned home. There is no one left to attend to the yard - so it is time to make your escape to greener lawns.

However, the previous tenants left all sorts of dangers between you and escape.

Don't fear! Your friends are here to cheer you on. Whenever you can break your focus enough to hear their cheers you'll be inspired to leap to heights you've never reached before!

Together, you can escape!

Mechanics

Periodically, you'll hear the cheers of your friends. When this happens a series of arrows will appear on the bottom of the screen.

By entering the series of arrows in the correct order (from left-to-right) you will gain inspiration (air-jump charge) - noted by the green number above your head.

You can always jump off the ground, but to jump in the air you will need to use some inspiration!

Watch out for the dangers though. There are holes in the lawn to fall into, and old tools left lying around. Both of which will end your escape!

Why

A group 4 decided to make this for our very first game jam. None of us had ever made a game before, but we're pleased with how this turned out! Part of the Brackeys 2021.1 - Stronger Together game jam.
