- Lol this game is awesome. The music is really really good and I appreciate the 8bit remix on the title. The artwork is also great, and it has a really humorous theme. I really like the solid snake phone calls mixed with the absurd bird mechanics haha. Given how the controls are laid out, I used the arrow keys for movement on the ground but then found it difficult to switch to A/D while aiming my missile in the air. Just a small thing. Another piece of feedback is that I wish I got to do something a bit more fun or creative than blow guys up. I understand that theres a lot of time constraints but with how funny and well put together everything was, it felt a bit like a let down that my main mechanic was pretty straight forward. However the dialogue was really funny and it made it fun to look for the little dudes to blow them up. Overall I think its a great entry! I really enjoyed playing it and think it definitely has alot of potential!

This game was fun. I love the art style and humor of the game. I especially love the animation of the pigeon eating bread in the top left when you pick up crumbs. It took me a while to figure out rolling refills your bread meter, I thought I was soft locked at the end of the game, not sure if it mentioned that somewhere and I just didn't read it. Glad I made it thru the game, I liked the ending a lot. Great work on this!
Thanks for the lovely comment nickbdawg!
We just had to animate them eating, that was without question haha. I do wanna see if we can add more animations to different actions in the future haha
Roll can charge up the metre but also pressing E on the green bins gives you unlimited crumbs :)
Glad you enjoyed yourself!
Wow! Great design, catchy music, easy to control pigeon, overall nicely polished.
Took me some time to stop nosediving into the ground xD
Was sure that I softlocked myself in middle, but turns out garbage have unlimited bread. Not that obvious where to go (I got to final door with 1 bread score), but thats probably my bad :D
Great game, was fun playing it
Hey InVeRnyako!
Thanks for the kind words!
if you press E on the phone booths to start the quests the icon above will change to a ... meaning the quest is still active. (and a ! means that the quest is completed and you need to get the bread)
i have plans in the future to make this a bit more clearer but keep blowin things up and you will get there (ending is the best bit hehe)
When I was prototyping the torpedo mode it took me a while to get used to it also - but after a bit it clicked and It was good from there. I find the trick was to stop moving before you enter torpedo mode haha
I like this pigeon, especially his rocket mode. It makes me feel like a real weapon 🚀
Glad you enjoyed yourself Vielem!
Loved everything. Especially the writing. Thanks.
Thank you for playing Zayed!
OMG I love the art so much! The game is full of personality. The mechanics are working very well and I had fun playing. Great job!
Hey jessemauer!
I'm glad you enjoyed the game!
Very cute game! I loved the movement and mechanics for the bird. Also seeing his little roll was very cute. Definitely took me a second to realize I had to take the same phones multiple times. Also the quality of the art and animation was spectacular. That animation at the end was good.
Hey TheWorldsCutestGamer!
Originally we didn't have the quest markers but I had felt the same way so I added in the markers the day before the jam ended haha - I have a good idea in the future on how to mitigate this in a very....on brand way haha ;)
Glad you enjoyed the game though! and shoutouts to Chirpy-chi for the kickass animation!
AWESOME GAME. ONCE I PICKED UP ON THE MECHANICS, I HAD A LOT OF FUN TORPEDO'ING AROUND AND REALLY LIKED THE ASSASSINATION PLOTS. WOULD LOVE TO SEE WHAT Y'ALL WOULD'VE DONE WITH MORE TIME AND MORE LEVELS!
THANK YOU RCCOLA96!
WE REALLY APPRECIATE THE KIND WORDS! HOPEFULLY WE GET THE CHANCE TO WORK ON THIS MORE AFTER THE JAM!
Coo~
Lovely artwork
Thank you, pythosaurus!
Fantastic execution, great entry! Pretty tough to play as a leftie (would be nice to steer w/ arrows) but we can make it work. Worth struggling with a bit to experience it for sure!
Hey YouCarryOats!
Thanks for the feedback! Accessibility I feel gets shafted in jams a lot but it'll be one of the things that I will work on after the jam ends! hopefully with controller support and rebind-able keys :D
Glad you still had a good time with it though!
I knew this game would be awesome just seeing the logo. All I can say is WOW. When I figured out the missile pigeon I had a smile from ear to ear. 10/10 would pigeon again!
Thanks Alexandre!
Thanks for the kind comment! I am glad you enjoyed yourself!
hopefully next time you pigeon there will be more content haha
Coo~~
this game is perfect in every way.
the cute artwork, music/sounds, easy to understand gameplay, i only wish there were more.
the pigeon even extends.
he truly is THE weapon.
GOTY.
Hey Nash
Aw shucks, now the entire team is blushing 😁 😁 thank you!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it so much! We had heaps of fun developing this game and really wish we could of added more but we woulda been creeping that scope haha
Coo~
honestly i think u guys handled the scope very well. this felt suprisingly complete for a jam submission.
Game didnt break at all, tutorials, prompts, and ui were done perfectly, strong gamefeel,
I almost suspect that some of you guys have experience in making commercial games.
Thank you again for the even kinder words haha!
actually none of us are! and fun fact this was Chirpy-chi's first ever game they have worked on!
and this is Whimppidy and Komainuis 2nd ever game!
I have only really done gamedev as a hobby but never released anything until we started doing jams recently
Love the charm of this game's art and mechanics
Thanks TeaRam!
Fun and goofy little game. Great and and simple to understand controls. Great little jam project :)
Thanks for the kind words Morra!
Incredibly polished and catchy music!
Thanks Cameron for the kind words!
hehe funny bird
No but actually this game is actually perfect, I only wish there was more of it. Whatever you’re doing keep doing it!
also LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEG
P.S. Anywhere I can listen to the music or follow the composer?
Hey nulture!
Aw thanks for the kind comment <3 the team and I are real proud of this one. Hopefully we do get to keep doing it!
Hehe leeeeeeeg
If you click on whimppidys name in the credits it'll take you to their social but I'm not sure if they post more music outside of the jams. They should though!!
Amazing game i love the quirkiness of the game and the idea of exploding pigions the controlls feel intuitive 10/10
I'm glad you liked it LaJony!
Amazing, I hope this game wins, amazing job please make it into a full game!
Thanks Nuurr!
Id love to make this into a full game one day haha!
My friend Pigeon said it is the best game ever and I tend to believe his words. Love the art and animations, literally made me giggle as the pigeon blasted the first window wide open. Coo~
Thank you for the kind words TimeTheTea and sir Pigeon friend!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Coo~~
Awesome art, fluid game-play, and stunning pixel aesthetics! I absolutely love it. My only minor gripe is the inconsistent sound levels—some are a bit too loud—but overall, an excellent job!
Thanks Kurereha!
Appreciate the kind words!
After the jam I will update the build with better levels, thanks for letting me know 😁
