I reached the top multiple times, pretty fun and not too rage inducing I liked it quite  a bit :D
The bird is so cute but i feel bad for it when it gets hurt :(
I wish there was some music.
Also is it endless?

thanks for playing :3

  • there should be some music playing in the background
  • Yes the game is endless, the bird cannot truly escape the tower

I hear the music now that I played the game again, maybe i had the volume too low, my bad :0

Ahhhhh! I CANT DO IT ;____; I try and I try but I cant get to the toooop!!! The rage is real! I love and hate it. 

Jokes aside this is so awesome!

What a nice concept, you create a rage game haha. Also...feel bad for the little guy...

What an infuriating game...I love it! Great style, and SFX.

It was one of the best games I played on the 1-bit jam so far.  It has a great sound design and a cool combination of flappy bird + tower theme.  Visual variety would not hurt, and I intuitively want to walk when the bird is on the platform, this feature also would help me in some situations.

Fun and frustrating game! The theme fits perfectly, and while the difficulty is tough, it's still fun to play and replay.

Simple but has a unique gameplay. The art and animation for the bird and spiders are also really well done.

Very cool to see something that went in a similar direction as what I did!

Really love the execution

So cool and very stylish. I enjoyed the effect when the game started. The only problem is, I’m not very good at this kind of game.

Good job!
Very minimalistic and stylish, very polished. The game is hard, I couldn't pass the second group of spiders, but the game is definetly fun - great result!

All around fun game and the sfx when the bird hits things sounds like it hurts.

Submitted(+1)

Beautiful game! Has a lot of character and the gameplay is great too!

I don't know if I've ever enjoyed something that made me so angry so much. Great job!

I think that the game mechanic is very interesting. I liked the sound effects and the music was chill.

Game very Fun.Like the sounds and the gameplay.

I didn't think I could both hate and love something so much. Extremely polished, addictive gameplay, and an excellent insight to true 1-bit visuals. However, if I said it didn't make me go bald and age exponentially I'd be lying.

Let's be real. This will probably be the winner. I feel like a 5/5 in all the boxes.

In my first run I started so careful and slow that the first enemies felt tough to me. In my second one I rushed it and it was really easy. I'd say maybe the first enemy encounter could be a little more gradual (1 spider instead of 3). But it works fine nevertheless.

cheers!

This is a game that you play because you get too frustrated to stop hahahaha you NEED to get to the top lol

I did get a couple of bugs, though. It appeared to happen when I faced two colliders too close to each other (like between the torch and the wall).

The game is very dynamic, with challenging obstacles combined with very responsive commands. One of the best of the jam.

this good game. this game i can see I play for long time.

This likes Flappy bird game but its quite more challenge. Personally I feel it pretty hard to control the bird. I would love to have extra 1 button to flip it to either left or right. Nice game and congratulation!
