The Skeleton War is a third person LAN party game where players take command of a skeleton to smash their foes apart. Lost a limb? 'Tis but a scratch! Just pick up another and keep fighting.
About The Skeleton War
The Skeleton War is a multiplayer game designed for up to 8 players to play together and break each other apart. Everyone is a skeleton, but no one is particularly attached to their limbs. Break your friends legs off and take them for yourself. There are two game modes to choose from, Bone Collector and Dye Another Day. So join The Skeleton War today and bring your friends together, by breaking them apart. We hope you have fun!
The Skeleton War Multiplayer
The Skeleton War is a game designed exclusively for multiplayer play. It works best over a Local Area Network, but friends may connect to your game over the internet if you provide them with the external IP address displayed on the Join, Host, and in-game menus. If your computer sits behind a router, you will have to configure your router to forward all traffic on port 7777 to your computer's local IP address (which usually looks something like 192.168.1.x). Take a look at the following infographic for more details.

At this time there is no online matchmaking, so all online players must connect through a direct IP address (just like Minecraft and Terraria players had to in the early days). The reason for this limitation basically boils down to time constraints: we chose to focus on making our game as good as it could be rather than setting up an online infrastructure that would have taken weeks out of our development time.
Recommended System Requirements:
- 32-bit Windows 7 or later
- Quad-core Intel or AMD processor, 2.5 GHz or faster

Please note that anonymous gameplay statistics are logged by default so that we can understand how people are playing our game. If you wish to disable this, you can do so in the game's options menu.
