They came for your gold
You brought a pickaxe.
The Mine Awaits
Hover your pickaxe over gnomes to destroy them. Earn gold. Upgrade everything. Every pixel is drawn in code.
What is GnomeBeGone?
Gnomes have invaded your mine and they want your gold. Hover your pickaxe over waves of invading gnomes to smash them, collect gold, and unlock a massive upgrade tree. Push through four worlds of escalating chaos — from dark mine caves to the surface of the moon.
Everything you see is procedurally drawn in code. Every gnome hat, every flame particle, every stone panel in the UI — no sprites, no textures. Just mathematics and pixels. Built in Godot 4.6.
Four Worlds
400 waves. Each world resets and rebirths you stronger.
Mine Cave
Where it all begins. Dark tunnels, blue lightning, green toxic pools.
Bedrock & Lava
The ground cracks open. Purple lightning. Everything burns.
Space & Moon
Zero gravity chaos. Green lightning. Yellow toxic clouds.
Grassy Sky
The final stretch. Pink lightning. Pink poison. 4x HP gnomes.
Rebirth
At the end of each world, you face a choice: sacrifice all your gold, gems, and skills for a permanent 50% compounding boost to damage and gold.
Each rebirth makes you exponentially stronger. 1.5x, then 2.25x, then 3.375x. The gnomes don't stand a chance.
195 Nodes. 5 Tabs. Endless Builds.
Damage, Utility, Currency, Gems, and the Cursor Forge — all in one upgrade screen.
