You are a bird, having a machine gun. So you try to shoot your way through five levels, fighting against stationary guns, footman and also helicopters. Fortunatly you can hide behind rocks and walls to dodge their shots, while you try to find the keys for the door to the next level.

My first Ludum Dare entry. Made with HTML5 and Javascript, without any external framework or personal basecode.

Nice simple game. It was a bit frustrating that the screen scrolls down as I move the bird down near the bottom of the level.

You could try to control the bird with the WASD-keys.

Oh man, this is tough! Those helicopters... XD

The game was unplayable on Chrome for me, with controls getting stuck, and lagged terribly in Firefox 4, most probably due to huge memory usage. I did manage to play the first two levels, and well, didn't like the game too much - it seemed tough in an unfair way, instead of being tough in a fun way. Bullets fly too fast at least considering they kill instantly. There's some good material in the game, but it still needs work.

Painful. It hurts. I'm hurt.

Really unforgiving, doesn't feel like there's a lot of skill to it. I lacked the patience to get past the first screen :(

Really dig the interstitial screens and the wing flap anim :)
Freaaaking hard though!
Fun.

I liked the presentation screens... first level is hard until you discover how to pass. Second one is easier... keyboard doesn't respond very well in Chrome.

Hehe, thought you're entry was made of awesome (except for crashing my browser twice and being too damn difficult - hitpoints please) - well done!

Couldn't get past level 1 due to crashes (Firefox 4.0.1).
