GRR GRR, 70K GNOMES!
We're honestly a bit speechless. Grr Grr Gnomes just passed 70,000 wishlists! Every one of those came from you, so thank you for sharing, streaming, chatting and cheering us on. This little crew of angry gnomes has come a long way.
And to celebrate, we're part of Steam Next Fest! Grab the demo, round up your crew, and show the islands who's boss. We'll be watching every clip, review and piece of feedback you send our way.
What's Coming in the Full Release
The demo is only a taste. Here's what we've been building for launch:
Ship Upgrades: Make your ship tougher, faster and much more dangerous. Your vessel grows as you do.
Armors: Gear up your gnome with new armor sets and head into fights properly protected (and looking good doing it).
New Islands: Brand-new places to explore, loot and survive, each with its own surprises.
Mermaids: The seas aren't as calm as they look. Watch the water or maybe try to not look at it.
Golems: Big, stony and very unhappy to see you in it's own cave.
Illegal Merchants: Shady traders with rare goods and no questions asked. Bring coin, and don't tell anyone where you got it.
More Scary Bosses Coming Soon
We're cooking up new boss fights to test even the most seasoned gnome crews. More on those soon!
Also, we're preparing a proper intro cutscene, and a final boss fight with a plot twist.
Help Us Keep the Momentum Going
If you haven't already, wishlist Grr Grr Gnomes and follow the game so you're the first to know when we set sail. Got feedback from the demo? Drop it in the Discussions or come hang out with us on Discord!
Thank you for being part of the crew. See you on the islands!
