WOW this game is crazy impressive!

The art is gorgeous, you can really tell that whoever made it knows what they're doing.  I also really like your take on the theme!

The gameplay is very engaging and fun, you need to learn this flying mechanic and it really makes you feel like a young bird that doesn't know how to fly at the start, which ties very well into the theme of the game.  The game is hard but feels very fair!

This game is crazy complete and if i made it i would be hella proud. My new fav of this jam :)

Wow, thank you so much for the kind and comprehensive comment!!! I also really appreciate you taking the time to beat my game (⁀ᗢ⁀)

loved the sound, it's just at the point that you donn't need any control of it.  its so  relaxing but the gameplay is also stressful because I'm bad. Cool design man  loved it.

Very well done! I loved the idea of the left right controls. Solid art as well!

Very nice control scheme, the very end saw super hard because of how narrow the opening was, but I persevered and did it! Nice game!

Nice Game, controls where hard to learn But once you do It's a Nice fun game.

Very simple mechanic, yet it consumed a lot of my time. Loved the touch of the bodies of past tries!

The birds leaving their bodies after is so funny. Nice work.

Beautiful game. I had to play it slowly to get to the end of the game, but it was fun and everything feels very polished. Great job!

This game should take the first place.

Love the style and colors! Nice sound and control feedback. Pretty difficult to go quickly, and my more successful runs were when I went SUPER slow and methodically, which wasn't as fun as going fast.. but if I went fast i died! A tough balancing act as a player. Cute character design and level layout was fun with interesting obstacles. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I definitely didn't realize how punishing it felt to go fast in my game, it wasn't something I thought about too much, but it makes sense. Really appreciate the feedback :)

Great game, loved the art style and music. The movement mechanics forced me to slow down despite being conscious of time. Once or twice I got stuck on my corpse from a previous attempt which got me killed :( Not sure if that was intentional but it felt a little unfair. Overall though I had fun with the game, amazing job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! The corpses shouldn't be interactable, so that must be a weird bug (´∀`;; ). I appreciate the feedback :)

Amazing art! The gameplay was really fun even if it took me a little to get used to. Really great game!

Submitted(+1)

Very cute game, love the aesthetic :)

Cool game! Why do you make me see the little birdies I've killed because I'm so bad?! I think I'd prefer it if not all ceilings and especially walls instantly killed you and it would fit the mood a bit better. But apart from that: Gameplay, Art, Sound are great. Good job!

Submitted(+1)

wonderfully addictive! very cute and uplifting (hah!). The persistent deaths are a nice touch even if it is a little sad!

Perfect execution to the theme , great job!

The cutest game character so far. I was sooo sorry to see the corpses of my previous attempts. This was a super sweet entry and well worth the time to play.

Cool game art

This game has a super cool design and mechanics. The art and sound are polished, too. Well done, you did a great job!

Submitted(+1)

The bird design is so cute!! I love flapping around and trying to be careful haha! I did notice that the little bird collectables on the ground don't disappear right away when going over them. It just might be a little bug. Great job over all though! I had a lot of fun!
