The God That Was is an isometric pixelated ARPG with 2 game modes. The first will be a Vampire survivors-esque rip off, mostly so we can test combat and get the game into people's hands early. The Second is an expansive sandbox campaign where you conquer Latona in the name of your undead god. Basically 2 games for the price of one!
Once we are further along there will be a Kickstarter and a video showing off everything we have but that is some time from now!
Raise Undead Legions
We are aiming to have the most necromancy features of any necromancy game so far! While in development, feel free to voice any ideas you feel worked in similar games! Below are some of the games' features.
Choose Your Champion
No longer are you restricted to an old man touching a book as a character! Pick from 4 different characters, each with one subclass (so far). Not a fan of being behind an army of skeletons? Become the Dark Knight and charge into combat with an army of support minions.
Perhaps you're more of a dubious nature? The assassin, perfect for crits while her minions distract her foes. Still not what you're looking for? Then try the rouge, killing enemies from afar behind a shield wall of undead. Maybe you just want the traditional necromancer experience, the warlock buffs and commands her skeletons never having to get their hands dirty.
Raise EVERYTHING
Everything that walks, flies and crawls can become an undead minion for you to control. Whether an army of chickens is better than an army of minotaur's is for you to find out. Search the far corners of the world for unique minions to raise, after you save them from the shackles of life.
Improve Your Legions
Being able to raise the undead just isn't enough these days! Every single undead minion can be upgraded with multiple armor tiers and weapons that dictate their role in combat. Maybe a hoard of child skeletons (ethically sourced) and a backline of Minotaur archers. Feel at one with nature? Make an army of only animals! The depth of Tartarus is the limit of your creation!
Become a Dark Lord
The world has become a utopia, and it is your unholy task to tear it down! Life's tyranny has gone on long enough, and it is high time the dead rise up! Why should the souls of the dead be reborn to live in paradise a second time! The dead should toil in Hades in perpetual blissful servitude.
Break the World
Face off against 6 factions in the sandbox campaign. Destroy the major power of the Latonaian Empire and reform the world in your undead god's image. As you shape the world, your decisions matter to the people you now rule with an undead grip.
Disclaimer!
We are still trying to figure out the lighting and UI so the screenshots above will likely change based on feedback.
