Emmanuelexe Posted November 29, 2023 “Hands of Necromancy 2” is the follow-up to the original “Hands of Necromancy” game. It’s a dark fantasy first-person shooter that shares similarities with games such as “Heretic” and “Doom”. As a player, you’ll come across a variety of weapons and unique transformation abilities to fight the monsters you meet. Trailer: Here are some of the new features we’ve included: - Interactive elements like flammable and destructible trees, hidden items in vases, explosive barrels of black powder, and breakable stained glass. - Traps such as spikes that emerge from the ground, and boulders that roll towards you. - A new character equipped with her own weapons and transformations, adding 7 new weapons and 4 new transformations with their own attacks. - New items to assist the player, including a bag that doubles your maximum ammo, new potions like the stamina potion, and the Amulet of Death that kills all surrounding monsters. - 10 new monsters, including 3 different bosses. - Over 20 planned maps. - Reworked Necromancy system: Revived enemies no longer cause friendly fire, and if you move too far away from them, they will teleport to your location. - You can also pass through them. - Various changes and fixes. - Linear map progression replacing the hub system, but the maps will still have a maze-like structure similar to classic FPS games. - We’re aiming to launch the game towards the end of 2024 or early 2025.

Emmanuelexe Posted January 29 New minions system and HP bars: The Big Hand of Necromancy allow you to revive all the monsters around you. Revived enemies no longer cause friendly fire, and if you move too far away from them, they will teleport to your location. You can also pass through them. HP bars added, they can be removed for the monsters in the options, same for the boss. Video: Spoiler We got a different hp bar for the normal enemies, still WIP, may resize it to make it less big. The other hp bar is for mini boss and boss. Spoiler More screenshots of the maps of Hands of Necromancy 2! The maps are made by talented mappers like Death Bear, Hambourgeois, Myolden, Lorenzo, Shadesmaster and others! Spoiler Oscar Martin is our sound engineer but also our musician for Hands of Necromancy 2, he shared a teaser of one of the musics from the game, you can watch it here:https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2MzDgriubh/?igsh=MXNqMjUxaW9zczdzNA%3D%3D 2 Share this post Link to post

TheFartKing Posted May 14 Big fan of the first game. Felt like a more navigable hexen with more heretic like gameplay plus some fun necromancy. Looking forward to this. 1 Share this post Link to post

Emmanuelexe Posted July 1 (edited) Newer posts: Hands of Necromancy has movement with some sliding, like in the classic doom engine. But you can turn it off in the options menu. It will also be in Hands of Necromancy 2.
