My first super-maxed (99/99) unit! And also my first Turn 20+ victory! I guess if you wanted, an update could just immediately give the King maxed stats at T20+ too, since you definitely need to know how to reach that point anyways.
Great game, I return to it from time to time. Yesterday I have finally achieved my goal to win 10 consecutive games without a HP loss, it was fun :). Looking forward for possible updates.
The game can be played in browser for free in its latest version here and on Newgrounds, you can also buy and download it here on a pay-what-you-want basis.
Death to capitalism! Love this game, the art is amazing, themes and music are both really good, balancing the paths and trying to predict how things will go is really fun, 10/10 also I am very gay for necromancer lady.
Interface bug: Farmer says it gives +2 health, but it gives +1 at level 1 and +2 at level 2.
EDIT: Another bug I noticed is the audio. After you lose a game and restart, it keeps playing the "game over" screen music and regular music at the same time.
Hey! I have idea! What about a vampire that heal 1 HP for every enemy it attack. It could be either three or fourth bones as level and the stats would be 1 attack and 4 HP at merge one. At merge 2 could have 2 Attack 5-7 HP and heal 2 HP for every hit. Mabye to OP but It's still an idea
I've seen Knights and Archers in turns before getting T4 units, and sometimes Snitches appear a wave earlier than expected. Is it ok to ask when exactly do specific enemies appear, or if it's based on current tier or based on castle health?
I'm pretty sure things are partly based on time, partly based on castle damage.
Stop Signal might tell us... but the other person would be ja_kingy, who I believe dug into the code a bit in order to craft their 4 turn win, and thus probably knows some details behind the scenes.
After a little bit of digging, my current understanding of how it works is:
The enemy units from previous turns actually carry over to the next turn. However, at the start of each turn, a 'summoning' occurs which inserts some number of new enemy units or replaces old units with a different type. The exact number is based on a bit of randomness, turn number, player health and king health.
Each turn, some new units are added or replace old units.
For the first three turns, only Supporter can be added
For the next two turns, Supporter, Royalist, Snitch can be added
For the next three turns, Guard, Royalist, Snitch can be added
For all remaining turns or when the king life is less than 12, Archer, Knight, APC, Guard can be added.
Then, an enemy type is chosen uniformly at random from the possible options.
This enemy will then be inserted randomly at the end of an available row.
If no space can be found, the weakest enemy in the lane is replaced.
Finally, if this is the round when the king comes out, the princes and king replace the units in the first spots.
For reference,
tier 1 bones starts first turn
tier 2 starts third turn
tier 3 starts sixth turn
tier 4 starts 11th turn (or when king health drops below 12)
These do not align exactly with the stages of more difficult enemies, hence you seeing some archers and knights or snitches early.
Good job on 7 turns, but nah- definitely not the first. Have to go back to older comment pages, but pretty sure there's a 6 turn win somewhere around here.
Someone even manage a 4 turn win I think? But that was after jiggling the probabilities in the shop a bit.
Hello, dude! Its maybe my failure, but... I do not have any sounds or music in the game. And also I dont see any options and my game can be only in windows mode (I cant make it in fullscreen mode... Or even make the game in bigger screen...)
I dont know, may be its not errors and everything of it should be, but you have a link in the game to musicwriter (Or no...?), so, I guess, that its a real bug
Upd: Oh, wait, about the sounds was not a bug, its just me dummy :p
But anyway, the game does not have fullscreen mode...
I really love playing this game! Hard somwtimes. But I really hope you proceed to continue working on this game. Plus. Love this game so hard I drew some fan art!
FINALLY!!! COMPLETE REGICIDE WITH NO HEALTH LOST!!!
Eat your crown and CHOKE, Royalty!
now i can finally say i've fully beaten the game for good, and move on to another addiction 💀💀💀
Not pictured above: A level 2 Succubus who single-handedly took care of everything up to the Royal archer, and a level 2 Milkman who gave my Big Boned Babeh a much welcomed calcium boost!
thanks again for your wonderful work, Stopsignal! You rule!

Великолепная игра :)

Finally got the elusive 6Turn win
Dang... nicely done.
我几乎都要为这个游戏疯狂了，我在未登录时输了四次，只赢了一次（crying）
但它依旧是个好游戏
I'm almost going crazy about this game, I've lost four times when I'm not logged in, and I've only won once (crying)
But it's still a good game.
Ok......but when will we get these options......im hungry for more
Its perfect💚💚💚💚

this is one of the best games ive every played
I'm in love with this game and when you release it (I hope on steam), certainly I'll buy it!
I'm from Brazil and tryed it on my youtube channel.
Great game, I return to it from time to time. Yesterday I have finally achieved my goal to win 10 consecutive games without a HP loss, it was fun :).
Looking forward for possible updates.
Hey guys, I made a wiki for this game!
Some parts (like the King's stats per turn or how enemy progression works) are incomplete but there's plenty of content there.
https://autonecrochess.wiki.gg/
Ooooh, good job! i finished adding pages for the Spells & Items section and added some content on other pages
I really like this game. Is any update coming? Or is it aviable elsewhere?

ye,finaly i won
Death to capitalism! Love this game, the art is amazing, themes and music are both really good, balancing the paths and trying to predict how things will go is really fun, 10/10 also I am very gay for necromancer lady.
Oh, btw. I won the game without losing any hp :p

Let's goooo. I took me like 10 tries, but finally beat the king with 0 hp left. I love the different viable strategies. 10/10 would recommend!
finaly, after at least 10 tries i beat the game (with 0 health)

(Would draw a design but I'm to tired to do it.)

Yep, definitely did look into this stuff.
I definitely can find this out for you, but it's been a while since I've dug into the code.

pretty accurate, id say!
Looks like I was the first guy who won this game in 7 turns, but I cant even write about it :(
P.S. Oh, I can writing something. Looks like I cant only send pictures here?
Anyway
My win in 7 turns was my the first win here, and I got it in the ~9th try
Good job on 7 turns, but nah- definitely not the first. Have to go back to older comment pages, but pretty sure there's a 6 turn win somewhere around here.

Fun and addictive. I have yet to beat the game yet, but i've gotten close.
I really love playing this game! Hard somwtimes. But I really hope you proceed to continue working on this game. Plus. Love this game so hard I drew some fan art!
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL THANKS

FINALLY!!! COMPLETE REGICIDE WITH NO HEALTH LOST!!!
Eat your crown and CHOKE, Royalty!
