I really enjoyed this game! I thought the art and style were really great, and I thought about this game for several days after I played it the first time, where I had been thwarted in the dream level. I'm glad I came back to it and finished it today. It was really a nice little gem to find the in the jam. It was pleasantly difficult for a platformer. Whenever I found a new bird doing some new behaviour, it felt like you were gently guiding me to figure out a new skill, like crouching or moving back and forth while hovering. I think from a game design perspective, that was really well done.

The only minor constructive criticism I would give is that the text below the game never faded to actual transparency for me. I could always still see the last line of text in between scenes. Otherwise, the only other thing I wanted was more! I wanted to see more of the Victorian times in this cute pixel style and maybe explore a few more levels. Anyways, good job!

Thank you so much for taking the time to play and for this kind feedback -- I appreciate it!  The text issue is so interesting -- after receiving your comment I played it on Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and had someone else look for this on another computer/OS and couldn't reproduce it, which makes it the worst kind of bug :).  Could you see the faint text during the platforming scenes (in the Park, during the dream), or just within the cutscenes with text (i.e., in between lines)?  Thank you for pointing this out, this is really helpful.  And thanks again for playing and commenting!

Weird that you can't reproduce it! My computer is weird with brightness, so it might be something to do with my settings. But it honestly wasn't that intrusive, and wasn't visible in the platforming scenes. What I seem to see is that in the dialogue/story scenes, you sometimes have pauses between lines of narration instead of a line immediately following the previous one. That last line was still visible after it seemingly faded to transparency in this scenario. Here's a snapshot I just took towards the end of the game.

Great, thank you for this!  I actually can't see it in the attached image, so it may well be my monitor that's the problem.  But your info about it appearing between lines in cutscenes is perfect -- I think I can fix it in an update.  Thank you!
