A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

NecromanZer is a rogue-like game where you can excavate bodies from a graveyard and animate them to join your army of death. You can chop limbs of the bodies and construct your own Frankenstein`s monsters. You can kill villagers, butcher them and use their limbs too.

Quick start:

  • Move to graveyard using arrows, numpad or number keys 
  • Find a shovel using [V] (shift + v) to show nearest items
  • Wield a shovel using [w]
  • Read the gravestones using [r] and find one with suitable body
  • Dig a grave using [D] (shift + d)
  • Examine a body using [e]
  • Animate the body using [a]
  • Give the order to your new soldier using [O] (shift + o) to follow you
  • Go to the village by a gravel road
  • Use your cadaver to kill villagers or try to kill them yourself using [s] to smash
  • Use villagers limbs (removed by [x] in body view) to construct your Frankenstein's monsters (use [i] to install new limbs slots and [r] to install limbs to existed slots)
  • Kill the whole village and think about what you are doing with your life

So how do I hack off limbs? It keeps telling that I need a tool depspite the fact that I have an axe on hand. Does an axe not count as a tool or is there an object named 'tool'?

Edit: Figured it out, you just need to use the knife.

Sorry for this, I just forgot to set axe as possible tool to.

This looks really cool. I've got my zombie buddy, but Shift+o gets the comment "Nothing to open here." Am I doing something wrong? Also, I was hoping that "?" would bring up instructions, but it doesn't appear to do anything. 

It should work with LEFT shift. What is your OS and game version?

It worked! Game version is 0.1.3 and OS is Windows 10 Windows 10 Home 64-Bit.  I like the idea of being a necromancer! I feel like this project has potential to be expanded. 

I'm not allowed to download it because it says it contains a virus. it gets auto-deleted after installation. please fix.

It's false positive alert from AVG for all PyInstaller apps, as I understand. You can add it to exceptions in your antivirus or run game from source (you will need Python 3). 

Also I uploaded extended windows version (necromanzer_0.1.3_win10.zip) that maybe will not be detected as virus, you can try to run it, but I can't guarantee it works
