CutCopyPasteGnome is a puzzle game created by Luke Brown, where the player's objective is to assist a gnome in reaching the exit without any direct control over his movements. This will require manipulating objects with a couple of editor functions, accessible by right-clicking on the game screen and selecting the tool you would like to use.

Objects marked by red boxes cannot be removed nor copied, hence you will need to manipulate your surroundings to overcome these obstacles and challenges. There are roughly ten levels to play in total.

Lolwut? level 3?

Hint: The screenshot above tells you how to solve level 3.

I thought it was pretty clever, except for a few design issues. Levels with enemies devolve to trial and error because the author didn't bother to implement interesting alternative possibilities (e.g. why don't crates crush enemies, block enemy movement, or act as stepping stones for gnomes and enemies?).

If only there was a quick way to cutcopypaste rather than right clicking over and over again.

Nice concept, but i'd change a few things:

1.- add keyboard control, it's annoying to have to press the right button and then copy a thousand times, it should let me copy with ctrl+c.

2.- make a visual cue that you are on the right thing to copy, it doesn't show you anything, you just gotta press copy and paste to see if it works.

Neat little game. I agree Control+C should work, but it's nice to actually see a flash game use of right click. This lack of possibility to use right click annoys me in flash personnaly.

Cool game concept.

copy pasta via right click does not work on my mac.
