Welcome back to another Ultra-Indie Daily Dose! DXP friends Amon 26 and Blood Machine recently released an experimental new indie game called REQUIEM. Named for the famous Requiem in D by Mozart, REQUIEM is an atmospheric dogfighting game set to that same music.
REQUIEM is a fairly straightforward game. In it, you fly straight forward. Piloting a futuristic jet over an inky black landscape, you zoom at high speed towards the horizon. Intercepting you along the way are enemies that look like the twisted heads of biblical angels. Shooting down these many angelic/demonic creatures over a shadowy landscape, REQUIEM feels like a dark flight simulator that takes place in the Bayonetta universe.
