Pretty impressive! And just in a few days, you made an awesome game. I didn't understood that I had many powers at the beginning, so I thought it was a little boring just sending energy balls. But when I found out I could ressurect the dead, it was awesome! All my army fighting for me and against the other necromancers, great job and really good for the theme!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, really appreciate it! :)

Haha yeah having powers of a necromancer certainly feels powerful! Glad I managed to convey this feeling in the game.

Wow awesome what you achieved in such a short time! I would have liked a target indicator to know what I would hit with my spells before casting. And at least the webgl build tankt hard quite quickly.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and for your feedback :)

I agree with you that a skill indicator would be a nice addition. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to add it. Will note it for future improvements!

Submitted

Oh I totally get that my game is also missing a bunch of stuff I would have liked to have included! :D

Submitted

I liked the game and spent a good time.

Pros

  • Mechanics are good and I could really see what it could be as a finished game (like direct spells, dots, spells oriented on minions only etc)
  • VFX (spells) are good and polished
  • Tutorial on how to play directly into the game without forcing you to use an ability

Cons

  • Camera is a bit odd for me. I would have preferred either a third person camera or a top-down camera.
  • I really hate games where you have to kill wolves: let them alone!
    • (this is very subjective and I did not rate according to this point ;)

Thank you for your feedback, really appreciate it and I'm glad you had a good time :)

PS: no wolves were harmed in this video-game, you actually make them your pets! haha

Awesome! I also had the lag at the boss fight, but I think that it is a given considering the time we had for the game jam. Everything else is polished. I am going to have to look at the source code and learn and *cough* steal *cough* the code. Just kidding, I don't really plan on making an RPG game, but if I do,  I think I might want to see how your team did it. This really makes me wish I had put more effort in my game. 

Developer

Haha, thanks for playing, and no worries you're free to check *cough* steal *cough* the game code. If it can help you acquire some knowledge it's a win for me too!

It's ok if you didn't put as much effort don't worry. I have a lot of experience hence why I managed to get to such a project scale. You'll get there too if you keep on improving yourself! :)

Submitted(+1)

What I meant was that I had only used 4 of the 10 days given, I had trouble pacing myself, but what I was saying was really just looking back. But thanks, It was a really cool game!

Developer

Oh I see, makes sense! I've tested your game and it was great. Next time if you put more time in the project it will only be even better, well done :)

Submitted(+1)

I really liked it - you made a really good cohesive theme with the graphics & sound, it comes across as very polished!

Developer

Thanks, appreciate the feedback :)

wow its actually very polished game.

Developer

Thank you, I put way too much time working on the project haha

Submitted(+1)

wow this is so cool! that feeling to control an army of dead is so epic :D
like others already told it starts to lag on the boss fight.

Developer

Thank you! Yes my apologies about the lag, we didn't have time to polish performance.

Submitted(+1)

I love RPGs and this game really reminded me how good games like this can be. Perfect for introducing people to the RPG genre and discovering a love for it. 

The music was super fitting and atmospheric and I also liked the explanations in the game itself where the use of skills was appropriate. 

Really excellent performance and I'll probably play it again and again now. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much I appreciate that a lot! I'm glad it managed to hit you with that vibe :)

Submitted(+1)

loved it. the ability thing was fun, though the game was lagging when I was taking over the king, there were so many people in there I died.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback :) Apologies about the lag, it's much less noticeable on the pc version.

Submitted(+1)

Really cool game, I thought it suited the theme well! I'm impressed you made so many features given the amount of time we had, especially given it was 3D as well!

The only thing that could be improved on is I thought the controls being a toggle for the spells was a little unnatural for me personally - I thought maybe '1' would cast Spell 1 etc. Other than that 10/10!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback really appreciate it! :)

I can agree on the skillbar mechanic. I was hesitant on doing either one or the other way. Will take your feedback into account! 

Submitted(+1)

Really awesome game dude! I loved bringing enemies back from the dead lol It made me feel really op (until I met other necromancers and got screwed lol!) Well put together!

Developer

Thanks a lot man, I'm glad you had fun with the resurrection mechanic :) 

Submitted

Really cool idea, Brought back a nostalgic feeling and thats always a win!

very very nice

sadly i cannot turn the camera but it was still amazing gj

Developer

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the game :) Will take your feedback into consideration for the future.

Great game! This has such potential to be a fully fleshed out game. :D Keep at it.

Developer(+1)

Thank you really appreciate the encouragement. This game's mechanic is only a part of a future bigger rpg! :)

Submitted(+1)

Really nice game, but fireballs one shotting you is a little annoying though. It could be a little better with camera turning and an AoE spell. Also, I did not find drain mana to be too useful, I think a larger health pool and drain life would be more enjoyable. But I really liked the other spells and the theme. Congratulations! :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! You enumerated some good points, I will take it into account in the future :)

No problem, you did an awesome job with this game and I wish to see your improvement! :)

Awesome game! loved the environment and the abilities, it's really fun! congratulations on building such a fun game in only 10 days!

Developer

Thanks a lot, I'm happy you enjoyed the game :)

Submitted(+1)

Fun game and very satisfying to bring back to life the enemies you killed!

Developer

Thank you, glad you enjoyed that mechanic :)

Submitted(+1)

This is awesome. Very fun, congratulations for making something this complex for this Jam. It's really impressive!

Developer

Thank you, really appreciate it :)
