26 Gnomes everywhere!
Gnomes everywhere! Like… everywhere! But only a few of them are corrupted… That is how the ‘old’ Find the Gnome works. In the new one you just have to catch all gnomes. But for now, enjoy the little piece of gameplay I recorded for you on the old version! I have an update on howContinue reading “26 Gnomes everywhere!”
25 Animating
When I started ‘Find the Gnome’ in December 2017, my goal was to do it all myself so I could experience what I was good at and what I was bad at. Creating a model for the gnome, texturing, animating: it was all part of that. Now in 2021 modelling is much more easy forContinue reading “25 Animating”

Update v1.0.2
Quality improvements I did some updates over the past months. The 6th of Juli I did a minor update, and today the 21th of August, I did another update. More vibrant game play.

Steam is learning…
Since the June 2018 update of Steam there are some updates to counter misuse of tradingcards and achievements. That is because of a select group of ‘poisonous developers’ (not my words) use these system for things they are not meant to be used for. Don’t get me wrong. I like it when Steam tries toContinue reading “Steam is learning…”
Project 1 – v0.5
Version v0.5 is here, and look at the beautiful gameplay! I’m sorry if you didn’t expect a video in these otherwise static project updates. But with the upcoming release (3 weeks!) I thought it would be logical to include some actual gameplay with this post. As you can see the following additions are in here:Continue reading “Project 1 – v0.5”
