What started as a play in words is now a rage game à la Getting Over It. Goal Your goal as the birb is to flip up and up and up to wherever this journey will take you. There's no real rhyme no reason here. Just you, your sanity and birb physics. Controls Swipe your finger across the screen to "flip" the bird in which case it flies in a direction, flapping its wings as if that actually helps it fly. Features Hand-drawn-like art style Different objects with different mechanics Checkpoints (if only they are helpful) 6 Areas with a secret 7th Area Simple controls which means you only have you, yourself, to blame Reset Flags button if ever you need a thrill Birb physics, the most important feature Other Stuff Version 0.0.08 only has the first 5 areas Version 1.0.0 has all the features described but it's not free
I've played this up to a point where I have the ability to dash and jump with it and I can tell this really looks good. It's so simple in design that it's just enough. Even the metroidvania aspect is simple, down to its basics. The only things that I don't like here is how there's no way to save the game and pressing the escape button exits the game without asking for the player's input to make sure that they indeed want to leave. Like, I made so much progress beating the first boss and wanted to pause for a toilet break but -poof- the game exits and all my progress is gone. I wanna suggest putting in a save and load mechanic whenever a player reach a checkpoint and a UI pop-up that asks if the user wants to exit. Aside from these, I really think this is a good simple game. Thumbs up for ya!
