Downed For The Count
A downloadable game for Windows
An arcade flight combat hoard shooter where you play as an ace pilot vampire as you shoot down (you're a Count and you shoot Down planes) waves of enemies thrown your way, and even use your vampiric powers to convert their Aces to your side (only aces are worth keeping around...)
Use the mouse to aim/fly
Use LEFT SHIFT to turn tighter (VITAL, or else it turns out to be really hard to chase the enemies down)
Use TAB to switch targets (will switch to a target that you're looking at if they're close enough to your crosshairs)
Use SPACE to convert an Ace (while you're aiming at them in gun range)
NOTE: some numbers may occasionally glitch and be one number off, but the rank display of the Ace you're currently targeting is *always* accurate
(my first ever proper game jam game and first entry into the GMTK game jam especially, please be gentle!! 🙏🥺)
