I liked the simplistic visuals and sound fx, but it was way to easy, a nice game none the less :)

Nice visuals and the sound fx deffinately add to the game also the counter at the begining was well made next thing you could add is more difficulty as others have said already.

A simple and interesting spin on the flappy birds concept, there isn't really any difficulty which is my problem, but the use of visuals, and sounds work really well with the game itself. A solid submission.

Really cool game - I loved the sound effects they really helped with engagement. Super cool game with tons of elements like a countdown which was awesome. Congrats! :D

Really cute little game with simple but enjoyable gameplay. To keep it engaging for longer I'd suggest perhaps a scoring line that changes position, or obstacles of some sort? Otherwise great job!

A game that meets the requirements of the brief to the letter. It is a game that requires a single control to operate.  It operates with no bugs and what is there is totally serviceable.

However, there isn't much difficulty with this game. Once you get into the rhythm you can chain many points and hop above and below the score line. I think adding obstacles coming from the right of the screen which you can dodge by jumping. Finally, consider how people can access your game. Is the way you have done it the most appropriate that you could have done?

All in all, for your first game submitted at university, it is an entirely fair submission. Use what you have learnt during this process to improve your work going forward.

Thanks for the review and comment I really appreciate the feedback!

When creating this the original plan was to have the icicles appearing from the right hand side but for some reason they were not appearing on my screen but the clones as such were still spawning in, but no clue where, which did disappoint me that I could not work this out in the end which resulted in this change. If I have more free time some point I may look into finding out the solution.

Thanks again for the feedback!
