Emerge from your unmarked grave and wreck your vengeance upon the living in this incremental web adventure. This is the kind of game I enjoy so it was a great opportunity to finally make one. It should take less than 15 minutes to complete from start to end. I hope you like it and any feedback you have would be lovely. - Mike

I think this is the first time I've ever run into a clicker during a game jam! I love clickers and this is super fun and cool! It would be extra cool to have more resources to gather aside from darkness. Still, I love this, and it feels super innovative to me! Also I'm hoping I've gathered enough darkness to conquer the world in the time it took me to write this comment! :)

Pretty rad, pretty simple. Only critique is I would have liked to have seen some graphical works? Purple and green is good colour scheme though, very nice little adventure. Pretty creative use of theme. Enjoyed the clicker.

Nice and clean implementation. It was easy to figure out what I was supposed to do and what things did. Big quality of life improvement would be if the numerical values had thousands separators, would make it a lot easier to read and compare values.

Very clean cookie clicker style game. I enjoyed the theming of each shop that helped produce more money.

Well-balanced game, the color scheme gives a nice atmosphere to it.

Neat little incremental game.

Nice web design.
As of incremental features is not very innovative though, try to come up with your own little game mechanics to make it more unique compared to all the other incremental games out there.

Great work overall though, thanks for the game!

Fun game I was sucked in. I like the theme and would have like to see graphics to go with.

I don't know why but I really enjoyed this idle game. Super clean implementation and enjoyed the names of the different things I could buy. Some graphic of the world gradually getting destroyed as you progress would be really cool.

I'm disappointed I'm not allowed to crush everything using only my zombie hoard -_-.

Enjoyed it though, really like the clean aesthetic and style.

Nice clicker game :)

PS: you owe me a new mouse now!

PPS: a 10x button would have helped, but in general it was a very nice experience

Fun and addictive clicker. I like your take on the theme. I don't usually play idle games, but this one was fun to play and watch the progression.

Pretty interesting clicker game!
Very clean visual style and an interesting undead twist.
Wouldn't go wrong with a buy x10 button or the like, my mouse hand would thank you :p

I like this take on the idle/clicker genre. Fits the theme well and everything!

Not much else to say, it does what it sets out to do and does it well.

Giving me the choice of sacrificing all that hard clicking work for a bonus? How evil :D I'm glad I only had to do it once, to bring down the end goal time to acceptable levels :)

I missed having a "no cost" clickable button, even if the reward was very small - keep me clicking! :)

All in all, a nice little clicker game about a very ambitious necromancer!

This is nice for a game jam; I'm sure most people who made the first click finished the game, and it's short enough not to overstay its welcome. That said, the progression is very linear (as untrue as this sounds, given all the acceleration rates) and decisions are minimal. I'd be excited to see more necromancer-themed options and dark twists :)

at first i didn't get what's good about this because honestly i haven't played clicker games at all, but that was a nice take on that.

my feedback would be the same as someone said above, having a clickable which costs zero since sometimes i found myself having to wait until my income raised enough. i don't think it's cool to stay idle in those situations

I don't usually play clickers but you got me. I simply had to get a x64 to crush the world like a boss ;-)

Looks nice, plays smoothly, pace feels like a pretty good balance of waiting vs getting new stuff.

It felt a little linear to me since everything was the same: pay outflow, get +inflow/sec. I found myself wishing for a few other mechanics that could interact and create that feeling like I'm building up a machine or combo.

The writing was imaginative and helped sell the necro thing in the absence of art or sound.

And the "delete all for x2" is a very nice savage twist the captures the LD theme.
