About Us:

Hello there, we(crafteverywhere and LP!) are a two-person team from Beijing, China, and honestly these two days participating in Ludum Dare 55 have been a precious and interesting experience. This time, we bring you a local two-player competitive game that embodies the spirit of early Flash online game, including elements like hand management, dice-roll, match-3, combat and so on.

We hope you enjoy our game and welcome any feedback and suggestions.

Note: This game only supports two players playing locally and requires taking turns using the same mouse.

Game Description

Developed for Ludum Dare 55 Jam, Necromantic Duel is a local two-player game that uses dice.

In this game, you push your dice into a 4x4 grid. To cast a necromancy spell, you need to align at least three same symbols connected in a line.

Before you push the dice, you can use your necrotic energy to re-roll all your dice if you wish to change their symbols. The dice that get pushed out will be in your hand for the next turn.

Necromancy Spell List

• Bone-a-Rama：Summon a skeleton to your battlefield (skeleton count +1).
• Cutting-Nails：Your skeleton's minimum or maximum attack increases by 1.
• Without-Chivalry：Perform an additional attack.
• Calcium-Tablet：Your skeleton's HP+5; if the skeleton's HP is full, its maximum HP +1.
• Epic-Spell-Slot: Gain an extra die. You can have a maximum of 5 dice; if you already have 5 dice, immediately attack the opponent's skeletons, dealing 5 damage.

Story

A shard of divinity, once lost to the mortal realm, now promises rebirth beyond the confines of flesh.

In their quest for ascension, two liches engage in a titanic struggle for supremacy.

Summon skeletons, vanquish your adversary, and rise to godhood.
