I love seeing original out of the box mechanics like this. So relaxing yet challenging, great execution all around!

I really like this game. The concept is great, and very well executed.
I think the aesthetic was super good. Simple, and very effective.
I considered myself pretty alright at puzzles, and I got stuck at several places for a long time.
Great game!
Wow, this feels like a perfect puzzle game I'd find on my phone. Really great work here
Really cool game! It's simple, yet doesn't hold your hand. It's minimalist, but still pretty. It's quick, but fun. A good game that I hope to see featured in the 20 best games for sure!

I adore this game! I played it all the way through and it just felt so satisfying to complete. I love the open world feel and collecting the upgrades made the exploring so much more fun. Highly rated!
Quite difficult puzzles for me. I think if the level was designed in such a way that you can get more and more number of controls to move the bird while I eat then it would be interesting. In the stage I was at I just restarted to get 6/6 controls but instead restarting should've made me begin the level with 1/1 control so that I can plan my moves according and chose the right direction and every time I get my food, I get more controls to move from that position then that would be a even more difficult for me to play xD Nice job though!
A fun little puzzle game with quite an open world that made it interesting. The puzzles were challenging but I don't think too difficult. My main criticism would be the art. Despite the fact I usually like minimalist approaches to game jams, I just didn't feel like a bird soaring through the sky at all while playing. I think that just a simple bird sprite with a flying animation would have made a huge difference. Despite the fact that sprites and animation do take time, especially for a solo developer, it is usually worth it and I would much rather have a few of these levels with nice visuals than lots where all the sprites are squares. There are probably some good assets online you could use so it wouldn't take up too much time anyway. Despite this, overall the game was challenging but satisfying to play, good job!
Thanks blackhammer, yeah I am really dissapointed I had no more time left to polish up the art, it was in my plans, but I just didn't get to it in time. Especially the level design took so much time. But I am glad that you liked the level and the idea. Next time I will do my best to get real art in there.
