Happy Weekend: Fishing is Unlocked!
over 1 year ago – Fri, May 12, 2023 at 08:39:20 AM

We have reached our €60k stretch goal, which means fishing as an activity for your pilots and crew members will be included in the game!

With €60k, we are now at 200% of our initial funding goal. Amazing! Thank you all so much for supporting the project!

And what are the next stretch goals?

The next minor stretch goal is at €70k and will unlock three alternative color styles for your building pieces, be it for tarp, wood, brick or metal pieces. 

Don't forget our major goal at €100k: GERMANY gets added as a playable side to the base game. If we can keep the current momentum up, we can reach that goal. 🤞 

Let's bring more people on board to make more content possible!

Imagine how far we would come if every backer brings one more person on board. With around 2000 backers we would easily reach the major stretch goal for unlocking the Germany. How can we do that? You can help by sharing the project with your friends who are also gamers and/or WWII aviation fans.

Check out our Mission Briefings that explain how you can help to make this game bigger for everyone. You can also win GIVEAWAY prizes and get the bonus DLC "WINGS OF VALOR" for free if you participate in at least four missions.

Thank you again and happy weekend, everyone!

We are really happy with the progress of these first few days. But no reason to slow down, you can still help to make Ground of Aces even bigger! For that, we have prepared MISSION BRIEFINGS with clear tasks that help the game to reach a bigger audience. There are giveaway prizes and the opportunity to secure the bonus DLC for Ground of Aces – WINGS OF VALOR – for free. Click here to get to the mission briefings.  

We also want to use this space to recommend a game project that is currently in the middle of their Kickstarter:

Forgotten but Unbroken

Forgotten but Unbroken is a tactical turn-based strategy game inspired by XCOM but offers its own unique take on the genre. They stood out to us with their amazing WWII art style. They are mid-campaign. If you also like real time squad-based strategy games, definitely give it a look!

 Thank you for your amazing support in those first 24 hours of our campaign!

After 24 hours, we have not only reached the base funding goal, we have already crossed the €40k mark and reached the first stretch goal. This means you will be able to have cats and dogs on your base to keep your pilots and crew members company.

With this, we can reveal the next stretch goal for the €50k milestone: The ability to build intel gathering structures. Use special building pieces to construct intel gathering structures that monitor the airspace and improve your pilots' chances in battle.

FUNDED! Thank you all so much!

You guys are amazing! We are absolutely overwhelmed with the positive reception for the game! We would have never thought we would get to the funding goal in the span of 4 hours, thank you so much!

But there are still 29 days ahead of us, and we have ideas on how to make the game bigger and cooler for everyone. We are ready to announce our first stretch goals!

From here on out, there will be major and minor stretch goals for the remainder of the crowdfunding campaign.

The first major next milestone will be: Expanding the Battle of Britain setting by adding the German Luftwaffe as a playable nation and the main antagonist.

Playing as the Luftwaffe will bring exciting new aspects to the gameplay because you are an occupying force with an exploitive relationship with your nearby village. This will come with its own timeline, aircraft, technology and a new, German building block styles.

Thank you from the whole Blindflug team. Together, we can make the game even bigger. So please share the project, tell your friends and let's fly!
