You Must Become A Lich
A downloadable game
This prototype will not be updated. All future versions will be on Steam!
Lichdom
...is achieved when a powerful magic user separates their soul from their body and feeds on the life force of others to achieve eternal life.
After years of searching, you finally found it. The Coin Carin. You clasp your hands and cast a spell to move the very mountains above you. Mere moments later, you're standing in the main hall of your new Lair. Focusing back, you recall the spell to summon the gold necessary to appease the demons below.
Let's get to work.
WISHLIST ON STEAM
Welcome to the Prototype of You Must Become A Lich, a Coin Pusher RPG. This is what I consider to be the absolute core gameplay loop of the game. There are some additional things that would appear in the full game, but they are outside the scope of this Prototype.
Some of these planned features include:
- Character Customization and Progression.
- Multiple Overworld zones with stages of progression and upgrades to the core gameplay loop.
- Additional Collectibles, Monsters, and Coin Pusher tables.
If you like what you see, consider supporting the project via Itch Donations, or check out the Patreon for either myself or Kay Lousberg.
Thank you for playing!

Hey, I just wishlisted and wanted to point out that the description is a little wierd. "After years of searching" then "weeks of your life searching"
Thanks dude! Good catch.
Where you must become a lich on mobile?
If there's a switch port, that's when. Switch and mobile require a completely different rendering pipeline and I don't have the budget for the time it would take to switch. Sorry for the bad news! Thanks for the interest though! I want to put this game on the switch very badly.
Oh ok I'll wait
Posted this on the steam discussion page too, but it looks like development is more active here so I'll copy paste.
I played the demo and liked it a lot. Here are a few things that might make it better:
I'm looking forward to this a lot, there are very few coin pusher games out there.
game just keep crashing every time i open it and where is the setting
my units don't attack villages.
Is this a bug or they're to weak?
Have you already beaten them? Are they blue?
I am having same issue, first village just stays on full HP.
Are you standing inside the glowing area?
Yes.
Thank you for the video. Please try v1.0.3 and see if that fixes it.
1 what do I do I don't see a character or controls
2 there's no (obvious) way to lower the graphics so this can't run up my s***** laptop, I can't even seem to find a settings menu
Yes I know this is Prototype, just trying to help
V1.0.4 has quality settings. Please let me know if this helps.

bug report: there is a bug where if you run past the money eating chest fast enough it will go in and out of the money eating UI and you will be stuck where ever you ran to. you can still use the key binds to use the chest and press esc to leave the non-existent UI but you will still be stuck and can't move.
Yeah this one is a tough bug. I had it happen many times in testing. I think the fix would be simply remaking the entire system at this point as I've done a lot of tweaking and my code is just fundamentally wrong there. Thanks for the report! Sorry it happened! At least you can fix it by using the pause menu to change screens, if it's the same bug I think it is.
please add this to google play.
i will pull out my crucifix if you don´t
D: I think I have to now! I'll have to rework the concept but a lot of people want it on mobile.
Praise be god of the lich!
Les gooooooo
Wait is it gonna be for money?
