GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW

You and your fighter pilot teammates fight another team in a match usually lasting around 15 - 20 minutes. The goal is to destroy the three enemy Forward Operating Bases (FOB:s) while defending your own FOB:s. By completing certain tasks (like destroying enemy players' aircraft and killing ground vehicles) you gain credits. After completing a successful landing on your airfield, you can spend these credits to upgrade your aircraft, giving you an edge in the battle.
To be successful, the team needs to balance its efforts between defending and attacking, engaging the enemy aircraft and supporting the allied ground troops in their push.

ABOUT THE DEV

My name is Hampus Bankler. I've worked in companies like Fatshark, Rovio (Angry Birds 2) and The Outsiders (Project Wight). Sky Knights has been my dream project and I've made virtually everything myself, from programming to the music. I have a background in game programming, music and even a year as a military fighter jet mechanic. It was a dream come true being able to combine these passions into a game!
