It reverses the role in Flappy Bird, so that you control the pipes instead

That is the best flappy bird take I have seen in the jam yet. It might not be fully flushed out but dang its got some Petench! good job.
Nice work on this one! It does play itself for the most part, so I wonder if a better way of doing it would be to not have the pipes move randomly but rather arrange them in such a way that the birds don't clear the course unless you change things. As another commenter said, I usually only lost birds when I moved the pipes.
Another possible upgrade would be the ability to see the birds' flight path to know if it is safe or not. This would allow you to make the game much more difficult I think.
Even as it is however, this is pleasant to look at and I still had fun watching the birds go.
Thanks, I totally agree with you. The concept sounded good on paper and it was fun to implement the bird AI. But the gameplay just isn't as interactive or fair as you'd expect. No better way to try new mechanics out than doing game jams though, so I'm happy :)
Salute to your dedication.
Fun game! Though I probably killed more birds by moving the pipes rather than helping them :p
This is basically my game but the other way around. Well done!
It loaded up for me and was a pretty fun little flappy bird parody. Sorry the initial release didn't go as planned.
Looks like they finally fixed it, loads for me up as well. Thanks for the kind words :)
Sad that your submission went horribly wrong.
Sometimes things are just out of your own control I guess. But now the problem is fixed if you want to give it a try :)
I can't get it to load in my browser.
Everybody had that problem, it was a server-side issue by itch. But it has been fixed now, if you want to give it another try!
