I thought I left a comment but I'm glad I came back to this game.IT was genius I wanted to be TGOTY
just please a satisfing ending and more humain scorse for awnser
But I love it
Lost my mind watching my team members play your game. wanted to come back and congratulate you on that presentation ranking. very nice
Thanks so much for the kind words! :D It was a ton of fun putting it together, glad to hear we've once again hit the response we we're looking for LOL
I tip my hat to you good sirs, for the marvel that you've bestowed my very eyes upon. Never would I have imagined a dating sim with casual mobile indie games, that have very wholesome neat interactions in between. One of my favorite games this game jam no doubt. The art was 10 out of a 10, I vibed with the music very much, and I died at the ending HAHAHA. Again, congratz on making a great game that provided such a smooth experience, and lots of cute moments! Btw, why does fruit ninja chan look like such a baddie XD.
All it needs is to save your high score so that I don't accidentally tap the game over screen on the frame I die; i wanted to keep playing past the required score, but then I'd get punished for it by having it reset...
Also technically iirc the original game was taken down because the dev didn't like what their game was doing to society, but it's hard to fault a bit of dramatization. I'm less versed on the history of the other games as well, so I wouldn't know how much of it is made up.
This game is wild. I don’t know how to feel about it, but if there’s something I can say about it, it’s that it’s absolutely excellent by every metric.
While I could let my own tastes get in the way of giving you a great score the way Pipe-chan gets in the way of Flappy-kun, I won’t. As weird as this game is, it deserves to be among the top 100.
Wish I could play your game but I'm on mac :(
Thanks for the kind comments, hope your game does well!
Amazing art, nice game :)
Thanks for putting together this detailed review! I think we like to stand by the usage of Role Reversal being towards the concept surround the theming/story of the game, but I totally see what you're saying from a mechanics perspective. We had a similar response from Lena Taylor in the comments below (also dorito-based polls, but thats irrelevant) you could check out regarding our take on things, but I really do appreciate all of the different angles to how people see this game such as yours!
Excelente game! i loved the art, animations and music. Good job!
Incredible take on the theme. I wanted to see more but unfortunately I'm so bad at Flappy Bird I could barely progress 😭🙏💖
You're still a ⭐for playing our game. Trust us, its worth it in the end, even if you're going down the small score route :)
10/10 no notes
Ignore the bloody hole where my mouse used to be, I promise it didn't take me 2 hours to pass the final skill check
went into this expecting a dumpster fire, I was right but the dumpster was full of gold
10/10
Dumpster of Gold :)
the humor is on point here. the art, music, story--everything feels like a legit vn (albeit miniaturized) and it sells the humor well. gender choice for the pipe is brilliant, as is playing flappy bird to unlock the dialog.
my only complaint is i had a few missed clicks during the flappy bird game--thankfully nothing at a crucial time (though once when i was in the 20s pursuing the "ram into my pipe" option). i know that it doesn't count if you click outside of the minigame area, but there were some times where i'm pretty sure i clicked on the screen and the game would just miss it. it also felt weird that mouse-release was the jump button, but i feel like that's how the original might have worked too? i can't remember well since it's been forever, haha.
very strong entry. the jam theme feels a little stretched, but it just all works so well. i laughed out loud at multiple points, and it felt so good when flappy-kun finally rammed into my pipe c:
( pictured: moments just after disaster D: )
What a quirky game :) I enjoyed the art style and the reversal
Ridiculous idea and amazing clickbait title. Very strange but charming game. I wish there was a hotkey to either skip dialog or flap so you can both play flappy bird and interact with dialogue at the same time without moving your mouse across the screen. Using points for dialogue options is very clever. Good job!

im already on my way to college, never really thought of getting a girlfriend and def not into visual novels but DAMN bro flappy got rizz, we gettin out of the Google Play Store with this one
nice game btw
Flappy Bird is the RIZZ LORD
I agree with the comment about accidentally losing your hard earned 25 flappy points or whatever but the only reason it even stands out as such a problem is the game is so polished for a 48 hour jam game you kind of forget that's what you're playing. Hilarious. Well done!
Yeah it was one of those things that you just completely miss as a UX issues when testing lmao. If we could I’d love to add an actual retry button instead of just tap again.
