How does your game fit the theme?
Beyond the pun of the premise being that you have to take a Count down, the counting down limited time of day and night forces the player to consider time as a currancy of which quests are worth completing.

Really enjoyed this! After the first night when it said 'the baker was killed' I knew I would be the last man standing XD

Very nice art though there are some inconsistencies. Day-night cycle reminds me of Castlevania 2. Overall, good game!

Nice work! :)

This is a really cool mechanic where you are on a time limit to complete quests during the day and fight the vampire at night! I like how the countdown theme is implemented both ways.

I really liked the ruined town art at night, and I love the pun in the name.

I really like the attempt at using the day and nights, that was pretty cool. The art is also really nice but there are definitely some graphical issues here and there that needs fixing. Otherwise a really enjoyable experience with a creative take on the theme.
