Short description

About this game
Alone. Lost. Cursed. You wake near a quaint little town full of happy people living normal existences. They are completely unaware that you are a tormented vampire, forced to feed on their lives or let your own end. Explore an infinite world full of yummy townsfolk, limited only by your constant hunger. If people see you killing their friends, they'll panic and call for the guards, but each kill will make you stronger. Plan your feeding out of sight, or choose to only bite your victims a little so no one is the wiser. But beware: anyone you don't finish becomes a vampire too, stricken with your same curse and hungering for their former friends. Vampire Instinct is a small, focused, single player action game with fun top-down, pixel-art graphics. Gameplay is an action/stealth/outbreak hybrid: fight the guards or hide your deeds or deal with the consequences of unleashing an army of vampires on unsuspecting villagers. Features Top-down world with pixel art graphics. Slowly depleting health bar: ~75 seconds to live! Vampire action: press and hold the action button to dash and grab NPCs and drink their blood.

Test yourself: at the end of each run you'll see how long you survived, how much blood you drank, and how much blood spilled which you didn't drink. These records persist and your totals and best of each can be viewed from the main menu. Stealth: hide your kills out of sight of other villagers, or don't fully kill your victims so no one is aware. Hide from the guards if they show up. Action: if someone sees you kill, they'll summon the guards who will try to kill you. Outbreak sim: bitten NPCs become vampires with no self-control who will kill when hungry, depleting your available food sources and causing guards to show up. Procedurally generated towns: every town is different! Infinite procedurally generated world: when there's no food left, set out into the world to find a new town to terrorize. Make sure you have enough health to survive away from the only thin…
