Accidental Necromancy (Demo)

What will you do when you accidentally bring your best friend back from the dead?

You play as Lark (default name- can be changed), a potion maker that runs an Apothecary in a small town. After a visit to the grave of your late best friend, Ollie, you’re shocked when he knocks on your door later that night!

Spend time with Ollie while you try to figure out how you brought him back. Meet someone new. Discover family secrets (to be clear, this part isn’t in the demo, but will be in the full game)!

Features

• Choose your own name and pronouns!
• Approx 6k words!
• So many placeholder arts! (like… most of it…)
• No music! (I recommend listening to this song at least once though bc it inspired the idea for this story- Dungeon Dweller on Spotify )
• Texting!

This demo was made for the NaNoRenO 2024 game jam.
