On June 1st, 2021, twitch streamer 'wayneradiotv' was linked to a workshop page for a newly uploaded mod for Half-Life: Alyx VR. A mod that would "breathe life" into Gnome Chompski. He installed it, hoping to make the stream of his "gnome run" more interesting. He was not aware of the myth, but that didn't matter anymore. The following footage is documentation of the "Gnome Edition's" existence and what its discovery unleashed into the world.

As our journey through the Quarantine Zone continues, exhaustion sets in. Gordon(?) and Gnome continue their trek through the darkness in search of the sun. But what awaits them outside is no friendlier than what lurks in the sewers. So let's learn some numbers instead!

A new day dawns. Gordon(?) and Gnome enter heavily occupied Combine territory, and it seems like Gnome might be a little bit of a snitch. But Gordon(?) thinks he can get him back on the path of the Good Gnome, with a little bit of retribution. And everyone knows Good Gnomes get feasts. Just make sure you manage those meters, or you'll never get to the Northern Star!

The Northern Star's monstrous inhabitants stir. But the objective isn't so clear anymore. Gordon(?) and Gnome continue their hunt for the Foo Fighter's Patented Foo Berries. I don't know what that is and I don't know if they exist in Half-Life: Alyx, but Gnome has his heart set on it. Will G&G find a Foo Berry? Will Gnome get to kindergarten in time? Will Gordon get forced into kindergarten? Find out... now.

Oooooaaaahhhhhhhh! Gordon(?) sets out for another day of defending the Gnome. But this leg of the challenge proves to be the hardest yet: with minimum health, death awaits. Although, dying to the Combine might be preferable to what the Gnome has in store for us. Such as his beautiful, beautiful singing voice. Yeah. 5 stars.

The sun sets deeper as we approach darkest night. But the dark shall be pierced through SONG. As Gordon(?) and Gnome begin to learn more about each other, the gnome's hostility increases. And while Gordon(?) is distracted with sing-a-long's and arguments, he walks right into the den of a new vessel for Gnome's tough love. Welcome, new contestant!

AWAKEN. Gnome Chompski has laid dormant for over a year. And at long last, the final leg of our journey begins. But as we draw closer to the Vault, it's clear something isn't quite right. What has happened to the world of Half-Life: Alyx in the time we've been gone..? And why do I feel so... blue? This video is intended for mature audiences.
