Really impressive, this game has potential keep going!
Thank you, appreciate it a lot! It is in my plans to make a long term rpg where this necromancer is only a class between a few others.
My fav is when i kill them the enemies, making sure they're all close together, and then resurrecting them all in one go hehehe. I love it!
Thanks for playing! :) Feel the power of necromancy!
I always love the chance to be a necromancer in a game. And mass reanimation. EVEN BETTER
Hahaha yeah the main selling point of the game xD Thanks for playing, glad you loved incarnation the necromancer.
Great game. The summoning is fantastic. Hilarious seeing your hordes mow down enemies only to raise them for your horde. The castle is brutal. Fantastic job.
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you had a good session :)
Really liked the game and the look and feel. Very Dungeon Siege or Neverwinter Nights like. Liked the menu screen with the guy and the sword. Shame I didnt see the sword again. Nice green flame! The fireball seemed a little weak, would have loved to see more of an explosion, and would have liked a way of recovering some hp.
Thank you for playing and for your feedback! Noting your points for future improvement.
Lots of work done on this for the jam. Good work.
Thank you, appreciate it :)
Loved it, very fun. It was exciting to see my group becoming more and more powerful each time I resurrected more enemies..
Thank you for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed the resurrection mechanic!

Great RPG! Was really engaging and fun just like the old school RPGs. Would love to see you expand upon it and make a really beautiful game!
Thank you for playing! It is in my long term plans :)
Really felt like I was playing an old-school MMO or RPG, well done! The floating tutorial text was a nice touch. I was playing the web version and it did slow down a bit in the final fight when I had ~30 minions, but still playable. Very satisfying to grow in power with larger army. Excellent in-game UI, too.
Thanks a lot for playing, appreciate the positive feedback. Very happy I was able to convey the old school RPG feeling! :)
Yes I really like it and have added it to my collection to play more after the Jam.
You seem to have done the GameDev.tv RPG course and used it well.
Btw I love your font choice.
My only question is why you used a flat terrain instead of a more bumpy one, I think that would really lift the game. An excellent submission.
Thank you for playing the game! I'm humbled to hear that it's a game you would play more later, means a lot.
No I haven't used the GameDevTV RPG course, although I can agree it is looks very similar (it's an RPG basically! xD)
I've learned from their course a few years ago. This project is the result of every knowledge I have cumulated over a few years from different sources, so it makes sense there are some similarities.
For this project everything was made by me manually during the game jam period. If you're interested, you can check out the public source code to see the building blocks of the game.
For the terrain, it was sadly a question of time. I was supposed to take care of the programming side and managing the project, but had to do the game design and map art for the last hours remaining. If I had more time I would have put more details to make a more compelling experience!
Thanks again for your feedback :)
I totally get what you are saying, the first jam I did two years ago I leaned heavily on course material but this time I just went from memory (and google) and did 100 hours in a week (18 on a Sunday) and it just flowed, and its a great feeling when you don't feel tethered to course material anymore.
I would really really really like to see you expand this with a stronger terrain, more fog, different health bars etc, you have the game mechanics sorted and you clearly have great artists involved, I don't think its far from a commercial release (not that I have done one yet). It could be the next V Rising.
Really cool and fun game!
I love how you can build an army of undead and lead them to vanquish your enemies.
The skills were really cool and well made.
Good job!
Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it!
Really fun game! I enjoyed it a lot (a fascinating mechanic to resurrect enemies and build an army). The aesthetics and music were on spot!
Thanks a lot, I'm glad you enjoyed playing :)
This is a great submission. Thanks for creating this.
Thank you for playing! :)
That was fun!
Thanks for playing, glad you had fun!
Really good game for a game jam game. I almost cannot believe you managed to create this in only 10 days! Some further feedback:
Overall, this game has a really good production value for a jam game! I could see this being a part of a "real" game.
Thanks for playing and for the detailed feedback, really appreciate it :)
You've made some great points, I'll definitely take improve the symbols and range feedback into account when making other games! Thank you.
Really nice mechanics well made! I really like variety in spells from the beginning!
Thanks a lot, happy to hear that :D
Nice progression ramp to the game. Letting you become familiar with the mechanics.
Great job at the end making an epic battle with your large army.
Nice variety in spells. Makes you feel like a real wizard / necromancer.
The game is definitely very on theme.
No real downsides for a gameJam project - nice polish!
Thanks for playing! Happy hearing such a positive feedback from you :)
Om my god!
Such a cool game you have created in 10 days' time, this game is awesome!
Absolutely well done :)
Thanks a lot. appreciate it :)
Feels good to be a necromancer!
Haha, glad the game made you feel that!
