A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Gnorms are little creatures that move in a methodical way. You, a shape-shifting monster, want to see what is inside their home: the Gnest. The Gnorms do not take kindly to outsiders, so you must follow their movements precisely to avoid being noticed. Learn more about the Gnorms as you go.

  • Use wasd or arrow keys to move
  • In some levels, use spacebar to pick up/throw

There are 15 levels in total, which provides around 25 minutes of gameplay. You can skip ahead using the level select menu if you get stuck.

Tools used:

  • Made with Godot. Unfortunately Godot 4 with C# does not support building with HTML, else I would have made the game available to play in the browser too :(
  • Music created in Logic Pro
  • Sound effects created using https://sfxr.me
  • Pixel art drawn using Photoshop

Made for Acerola Jam 0

Lovely game. From its concept to the seamless integration of the theme "aberration" , the captivating art and music, every aspect is exceptionally well-executed. :)

My only complaint is the spike in difficulty on level 14. A potential solution could be to implement adaptive difficulty, gradually expanding the tolerance margin after repeated attempts.
