OVERVIEW: Play the first person hero who fights golems, witches, ghosts, and gnomes! Clear all the stages and win the game! Essentially a toned down killing floor with early PS1/N64 aesthetics (like Spyro, or Banjo-Kazooie).
Golems and Gnomes
SteamA composer wrote a bunch of videogame music for fun, then made a game around it. Originally a 3 month game jam, Golems and Gnomes continued on as a study to learn all aspects of game development, including launching it to market. Play missions in the Farm, Gnome Village, and Golem Town~ throwing rocks at gnomes and golems and other enemies till all the targets are defeated, unlocking new missions. Collect keys and money which can be used with NPCs to unlock new item drops and open treasures. The environment is a silly place, so enjoy the music and feel like a hero!
Types of weapons:
Single throw: basic rock throw~ default weapon
Rapid throw: Activated for 10 throws, consuming a Rapid-Glove item.
ShotGun throw: Activated for 3 (4 shots at once) thows, consuming a Iron-Glove item.
Main 2 Enemy types:
Gnomes: Come in different sizes and speeds and abilities, so pay attention to their hat colors!
Golems: Tanks that won't stop chasing you, figure out how to slow them down or defeat them quick!
