Necrom-antics

A Metroidvania-like puzzle platformer where you, the Necromancer, have to 'repair' various creatures in order to get through the ruins of your lair and find a way out. Mix and match spell ingredients like bones, cloth, and goo to cast spells and summon creatures to help you through your lair's tricks and traps. Create skeletons to harmlessly pass through spikes, zombies to chew through blockades of vines, mummies to help you down perilous ledges, slimes to squeeze into tight spaces, fishmen to carry you across water, and- if all else fails- ghosts to destroy any other creatures you've accidentally summoned. Collect the ten Mana Orbs to open the doors and exit your lair.
