In Ground of Aces, players take command of a World War II airfield, building and managing their first Royal Air Force military airfield. The demo offers a glimpse into the game’s mechanics, where players can experience the thrill of commanding a wartime air base, maintaining iconic World War II aircraft, and making strategic decisions on missions from HQ.
Key Features:
- Engulf Yourself in WWII: Step into the shoes of an air base commander, build and defend your base, send pilots on critical missions, and play a vital role in shaping the war effort.
- Base Builder at Heart: Design and expand your air base with complete freedom, making each base unique.
- Aviation Enthusiast’s Dream: Command a fleet of historically significant aircraft, select the right planes for each mission, maintain your fleet, and ensure your base is always ready for action.
- Personal Stories: Your crew members are individuals shaped by war. Get to know their personal stories, witness their struggles and triumphs, and feel the weight of every loss.
Blindflug Studios co-founder and executive producer Moritz Zumbühl shared, “The demo is a first glimpse into the world of Ground of Aces. Starting with a small British airfield, players will get to experience the thrill of building and commanding a wartime air base. We can’t wait to hear the player feedback and continue shaping and expanding the game together with our community.”
Ground of Aces draws inspiration from free-form base building games like Rimworld and Going Medieval, as well as historical strategy games like Hearts of Iron IV. The art style pays homage to the “ligne claire” style of Franco-Belgian comics like Biggles and Buck Danny.
