Did you work in a team?
I was all alone, it was funny cause I got to make everything such as code, level design, sprite art, music, etc... :D

Was the resolution a challenge?
Yea finding a game idea that would fit such a small space was hard and I had to scrap many ideas, but in the end I guess I found something that worked well enough.

What did you learn?
It was nice having to come up with solutions for such a small space, I think it in particular improved my way of spriting pixel art.

The art and juice is great, could see this as a mobile game. Some sections were a little harder to dodge the sun especially when you're only travelling vertically.

The polish on this is incredible.

My only gripe was that the scale of the character combined with its speed make for a quite disorienting experience, but I do feel like the somewhat merciful amount of dangerous obstacles —at least near the beginning of levels— counterbalance this somewhat. Zooming out helped quite a bit though!

Overall a really really solid entry. You should feel proud!!

Submitted

i very much enjoyed this game, a fantastic submission! very good game and ammount of polish from a solo dev!

Submitted

So juicy! So polished! So adorable! An all-around awesome entry.

+1 for the voices :)

Submitted

Incredible! There is so much in this game and so much to love. The fast pace and the feeling of the controls is close to perfection. The visual design is superb and the voice acting is sublime :D Top marks.

I would love to know how you get that super smooth looking trail behind Birdmo.

Submitted

I gotta say, I got pretty into this one! Pretty tight controls all around and it's really satisfying to see Birdmo swing from one obstacle to the next, great stuff all around!

Also as a quick question, what did you use to get that announcer voice?

Submitted

Nice game, and tough! I love Birdmo’s design, the lil’ guy has a lot of personality (for a bird :P) Agreed that on some high speed moments the camera can feel a bit jumpy and dizzying, but 64x64 just is like that. Gameplay is fun and invites to try again and again and again… trying to beat your own score. Wonderful entry!

Submitted

Looks great, sounds great and plays beautifully. Totally solid entry!

BIRDMO!

Im here struggling to get to 4k and there is people in 8k, what a hell?????? Birdmo is Birdmo nothing else to say. 

Submitted

Love it! Really cool arcade game! I was really bad at wall jumping, lol. It took me a few tries to understand how it works, but the overall experience was very cool! Well done!

My highscore after 5 tries (don't laugh at me :P):

Damn, Birdmo is soooo cute! 😍 The graphics are beautiful, and the animations are so smooth!

My only frustration is the camera, which feels a bit twitchy at times, though I know it’s difficult to get a smooth camera at such tiny resolutions so I’m not going to mark you down for it because I think that’d be unfair.

Submitted

Awesome music and sound design. A tricky gameplay, I love the concept of combing flapping wings with falling :D
Well done!

Submitted

I love Birdmo \o/ birdmo, birdmo.. Birdmo birdmo birdmo birdmo, bird-mo, birdmo birmo! :)



Submitted

Well done dude!  This is one heck of a solo dev submission!  The bird is cute, the background graphics, and the sound effects are pleasing to the ears.  My only (minor) gripes is that the wall jump mechanics are a little hard to time perfectly and the camera is a little erratic at times.

Oh and did I mention that I loved the lyrics?  They bring a tear to your eye but fill you with pride.  They are insightful and thought-provoking.  They truly speak for themselves when they say, "Birdmo."

Submitted

Presentation is top notch. Smoothing out the camera would give you something great here! 

Submitted

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm fruit tasty fruit birdmo eat

good game oroshibu

Submitted

wow amazing aesthetics! I didn't get very far but that repeating scaling noise from collecting the fruit is going to be in my head for awhile. Also birdmo!

Very pretty and fun to play, but the camera movement feels a bit extreme. Great job overall!

As Lynyrd Skynyrd once said "I'm as free as a birdmo now"
