This game is very fun! The art is really nice and the music fits the game very well, love the necromancy take on the jam theme as well! Overall I really like the game, good job!

Honestly really well done, probably my favorite played thus far. Would love to see a fuller version after the jam.

I loved the atmosphere of this game. Personally I wish the necromancer had some long cool down attack for dire situations. But overall very good game.

A beautiful game and nice music!

Just think it was a bit to overpowered to just spam spawn the graves, which made me mostly just spam left-click whilst running in circles.

Really fun game otherwise!

This game is brilliant!

First of all, rebindable keys in a jam game?? Amazing.

I love that you use the graves of your enemies to spawn more minions, it's so easy to understand but makes it super interesting! Combined with the multiple grave spawning system, it makes for super fun gameplay where you have to try and manage where enemies die and it's great!

The ressurect mechanic introduced later is a very nice addition to keep it interesting as well.

Love the visuals, the animations, everything is so clean and crisp.

This one's a banger for sure!

Game decided i was having too much fun and spawned a boss that's impossible to kill if you're not lucky and turns my only method of attack into minions

Stunning game! Beautiful art, great music, amazing polish... it even has a complete settings menu with remappable controls! xD

My only complaint is that performance was pretty bad and it constantly lagged... But yeah, congrats, you got the first perfect score from me in this jam! in one word, WOWIEEEEE! :)

Fun game! I really liked the artstyle and the gameplay was simple but very fun.

Well done! I like how strategies emerge from the simple rules. Art is pretty, although I feel like the visuals of the playing area could have been adjusted a bit. I half-expected some of those things on the ground to affect gameplay (like obstacles or something).  The music volume slider in the options doesn't seem to work and the sfx were very quiet compared to music as a result of that. All in all I had fun with the game!

Really nice game concept! Just amazing work in general, it looks and feels so polished!

Very nive!

Very fun game with an interesting mechanic, The art was also implemented really well. There is strategies you can implement if you want to go for more quality or quantity of troops. Which I like. I should ask though, what connection does it have to the given theme?

Musician/sound guy here. Thanks much!
To answer the theme question, the summons you create are the AI you are interacting with. They protect you from attacks as well as go on the offensive. You can also heal your summons via proximity and protect them from the enemy's resurrection device. So there is some simple back-and-forth teamwork there between you and the AI. And, of course, the enemy is also AI, though they are opposition.
Thanks for playing and thanks much for the feedback!

Ah, that makes sense. I think I was too focused on thinking Ai  = Robot.  Thanks for replying, I'll definitely increase the On Topic category. Good job on everyone who worked on the game!
