Cute! You injected a lot of personality into this. It never really seemed to get harder though with the birds. I think ramp up the difficulty in a much steeper curve and it will be more fun, so the sessions are shorter and you can replay to beat your own high score without investing too much time.  And you could spice it up by having the balloon move around the screen. Overall, good job!

Cute little game. The sounds, music and art create a relaxing atmosphere.

Cute game, though it can get a little old after awhile. Some more variety in the background would be nice. Still a solid game!

Really liked how you used the theme of the jam and really liked the game. The difficulty could be increased a little bit since only started to get a little more challenging when it got around 150 - 200. With a little work I can see you being able to release this game and possibly make some money. Great Job!

Wow, an Android game? That's new and i like it. A very polished and fancy game, it really works amazing. I love the way you used the jam theme, very original and solid. As only complaint I think that you have to increase the difficulty, and made it faster. Until the 200 meters there is no several birds on screen, and I when I reached 550 meters I stopped playing because it seems a little repetitive (and because I thought I was going to make that breed of bird extinct hahahaha). You have a really great patches mechanic, but if I can destroy every bird is not well appreciated. With some balance fixes and some kind of new enemies you can perfectly release this game in the PlayStore, good job dude!

Really fun!

The art is really nice and sound and music is really cute. The game fits the theme really well, too. The polish makes everything look very professional.

Nice job!

The game is really polished! The bird particle is nice and the sound effect are cute. The art is really good! And it fits the game nicely. I am really impressed, I wouldnt say you are programmer by nature, the art looks so proffesional!

A fun little game!

The gameplay is quite easy and this is the kind of game I could be playing for hours onwards :D

The art works really well ! I don't have fun to say about it. Maybe you could have add a gradient in the background, but that's juste personnal preference.

Feel free to check my own entry for the jam <3 

Cheers and congrats on the game !

Excellent game and very well polished! My high score is 53! 

Here is my feedback:

What I liked the most?

  • The mechanics and the gameplay of the game.
  • The graphics.
  • The music and SFX.

What didn't I like the most?

  • The birds SFX, it sounds like a chicken. xD
  • The bird doesn't look very good comparing to the game art.

Bugs:

  • The birds glitches with each other, the bird spawner stopped spawning, and the ballon kept going up. (I got this once, and then kept having it, which made the game unplayable, because can't click on the birds, when I rerun the video game the issue got fixed) [1] 

Suggestions: (I don't have many recommendations for the game, because it is perfectly polished)

  • Maybe, move the main menu to the centre of the screen. 

*Edit: I just saw the screen shots of the game, and one of them was having game title on the main menu, which I don't have.

Very stylish and surprisingly relaxing for an arcade -style game. I loved how Timmy got progressively more scared the more holes there were. Usually I'd consider the low difficulty a flaw, but judging from the music (very nice music by the way), a more easy-going, laid back adventure was your goal. And you nailed it.  Although it was not scaling well into my 4k monitor, I really enjoyed it. If you give it a bit more polish, you could genuinely release it to google play - I'm sure kids would love your style!

Very cute game! It was nice to be able to play on Android and the overall aesthetic was very playful! Wasn't to sure how this related to less is more, but I could imagine seeing this on the app store one day!
