I came back tot his one few times today because it was just so sneaky and complex but simple at the same time. All the way around a fun game! I really love the music too in particular. I couldn't figure out if the high score was working or not but 11950 was my best. Very fun :)

Judge feedback
Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.
- Functional and playable, with unlocks to keep players engaged. Barely any adherence to the theme whatsoever, but using the necromancer theme for which it was clearly made, it creates a more engaging experience than most Vamp Surv clones I've seen.
- This game allows me to just switch off my thoughts and go play it for hours. The game is really solid, no bugs, the sound design is good, the music is a jam, and I love the steep learning curve in this game. In the beginning it seems needlessly difficult but as you try again and again you develop strategies to succeed. Overall a great entry, keep kicking ass!
