Countess von Klinger

Made with Unity 4.7.2 Personal Edition

This game was made for the B&W Game Jam.

Premise:

In 1916, even as the war on the Western Front proceeds at an everlasting stalemate, a peculiar degree of occurrences lend rather elusive indications of a bizarre and almost indeterminable threat.

Unbeknownst incentives have prompted deep raids from British aerial units into the  very heart of central Germany, whilst even more odd circumstances befell the appearances of inexplicable aerial phenomena in the skies over Hamburg.

Meanwhile, the enterprising entrepreneur Countess Helga von Klinger has procured various investments within the aviation industry, while benefiting from various friendships within the German high command. 

Simultaneously intrigued and horrified by the recent events, her inherent lust for knowledge and adventure compels her to get to the bottom of it.....even if it kills her.

Gameplay:

Countess von Klinger is an action oriented flight/arcade game, where the player wages aerial combat against a conglomerate of enemy fighter planes and alien spacecraft.

Short textual interludes brief the player on the premise of each forthcoming mission, upon which the user is thrust into combat with the simple task of eliminating a preset number of enemy targets, as displayed within the upper-right hand corner of the screen.

Die, and you can either quit or start again.
