No KNOWN bugs. Intro is skippable via Enter. Really enjoyed making this. May possibly need some Microsoft C++ Distro. (MAYBE.) Enjoy :D Oh, and there ARE kittens. Try and beat the top high score too! (No editting the highscore table either...)
i thought it was strange that the water effect on the bird seemed to suggest the bird was coming from the horizon, while shrinking as it came lower(if you know what i mean by that), apart from that this reminds me of the rocket level things in DKCR :D now to go for an actually high score :P i also like how you take going off the screen into account the way you did, 1 small bug though: if you get a score of , i think 100-200, it says "sorry, no scores were beaten" while it's definitely above the kittens' score of 100 :(
Ah! Good find. I'll see if I can go fix that. Probably just a typo with the numbers.
The perspective thing doesn't make sense; you're right, but I kept it in simply because I was showing off and I liked it. But it's cool to see how people can notice such small things. I honestly thought no one would really notice. I'll keep it in mind for other games!
I loved the perspective change, cool touch. Glad you mixed up the projectiles a bit, otherwise it could have been too dry. Some power ups or flying birds in the sky could add a bit of fun too, but then you wouldn't be so alone would you. :D
Although the graphics aren't amazingly well drawn, this game is so full of lovely graphical touches (such as the parallax effects, and splashes as you skim the water) that I can't help but rate the graphics highly.
The game is let down a bit by the collision detection.

The perspective thing kind of confused me, with the bird getting smaller as you go higher up.
I liked the look of the ocean though, and the bird sprite is nice too :>

Thanks for the feed back guys!
It's very fun. Reminds me of a Mega Drive intro sequence, but playable. Well done!
