Necro Phillip
After a century-long lie-in, Necro Phillip awakens all alone in a dark and foreboding forest. With a craving for social interaction he heads off into the nearest town - he’s going to make friends with the villagers... or make them into his friends.
Necro Phillip: Don’t Bone Alone is a 2D arcade action game where you control an army of undead minions.
How to Play
Move Phillip around using the WASD or arrow keys. He attacks automatically, but he doesn’t have much health.
Left click on a corpse to raise a minion from it.
Right click on the ground to create a totem which draws minions towards it. Right click on the totem or Phillip to dismiss the totem.
Options & Settings
All audio and music can be muted from the main menu with the mute button.
The in-game pause menu allows the levels of each music, sound effects and ambient sounds to be controlled individually. Shadows can also be disabled from this menu which can help with performance or rendering issues.
Leaderboard
The game connects to a SpacetimeDb database to track scores. The best scores are kept for both the last 24 hours and all-time. If you achieve a high score in either category you will be prompted to enter your name on the leaderboard screen after death. Good luck!
Sound & Music
The SFX were made on the Mega Synthesis hardware synthesiser created by Sonicware, which emulates the sounds of a SEGA Megadrive.
Voice actor Louis Ward creates a hilariously cartoonish atmosphere with his rare talents.
The music escalates as your army of friends grows, increasing with intensity as you progress through your buddy-building run!
