Tips:

  1. The first corpse on your way will give you a head start. Resurrect him and meet your first enemy.
  2. Try to avoid archers on platforms! Deploy your fighters closer to them, using “Q”. Don’t forget to use “Q” whenever you have the need to lift your subordinates closer to the enemy.
  3. If you lose all your fighters, press “E” to resurrect the last fallen undead back to you. You can only do it when you have no allies left.
  4. You can have three allies simultaneously.

Dev Notes:

We had a team consisting of one developer (myself, Mikhail) and one painter (my wife, Tatiana). We used my own game editor, Remiz (the name is a work in progress, not happy with it right now) and the editor for this game engine. No documentation included, bear with me, it’s a long process.

We used Pixquare to draw on iPad with a pencil. Overall, the game was built on Javascript + WebGL, with the help of three.js and my own code.

gave up due to the controls ... should include arrow keys , z , x  so its playable for the vast majority of people

Thank you for your feedback! I completely agree with you about the unclear controls. I've fixed the conditions for the visibility of the box with controls explanation in the main menu, and I've also implemented the option to use the left/right arrows for movement.

Additionally, I've included mobile controls so you can play on your phone if you prefer.
