A downloadable game for Windows

You are a vampire lord conquering the world. Humans are your only enemy, but also your food. Subjugate all the humans without starving, maintaining all humans in farms for your underlings to feast.

Objectives:
Transform every human unit in a level-farm unit.

Rules:
Each turn the player can move each vampire unit one time.
Vampires and humans are affected by the combined level of the enemies that surround them.
Humans raise their level:
    Left alone;
    Near vampires of combined lower level.
Humans lower their level:
    Near vampires of combined higher level.
Vampires raise their level:
    Near humans of combined lower level.
Vampires lower their level or die:
    Near vampires of combined higher level
A level-farm unit is created lowering the level of a level 1 human. The unit can die if it's surrounded by too many vampires for a certain period of time.

Controls:
Left Mouse Click - select tile
Right Mouse Click - deselect tile
Space - new turn

About the development
The game was made entirely in pygame in one week (11/8 - 17/8); it was my first 'complete game', and it's still in a very early development state, it's only a rushed version for Low Rez Jam 2019. I'll release a more polished code in the future.

Code by Catarina Pereira, some help by Pedro Caetano.

December update:

Changes to the splash screen, win and game over screens

Retro font (8-bit pusab by Seba Perez)

Retro mouse cursor (by Pedro Caetano)

Change of selection highlights

Maybe I'll add a level creator in the future, but the Python code is easy to change to create a new level.
