Gnomad

Gnomad is an offbeat, hand-drawn, bouncing-ball platformer. Play as a gnome exploring a whimsical, sunken forest while engaging in fast-paced combat by spiking, ricocheting, and redirecting oddball enemies and bouncy projectiles. Chain together pogo bounces with volley attacks for unique combos.

About the Game

Dive pointy-red-cap first into a strange world bursting at the seams with strange foes and stranger friends. Traverse terrain and battle monsters by bouncing balls back and forth. Face large enemies and bosses in chaotic battles full of exploding projectiles and fast paced rallies. Tame the chaos and make it work for you. Oh! And maybe make some friends along the way.

Bounce Through Combat

Do battle by way of bouncing balls! The forest is chock-full of objects and enemies that can be picked up and chucked at your foes. Deflect, redirect, ricochet, and rally your way through the hordes of chaotic enemies. Bounce off of projectiles to unify platforming and combat abilities. 

Talk To Strangers

Friends and foes alike are just a little bit different down here. Swap gossip, barter for gadgets, and join secret clubs. 

Chart A Hand Crafted World

Every detail of this winding, unfolding, whimsical world is placed by hand. Learn the lands and keep an eye out for traps and environmental puzzles.
