This is it, I have finished the game and now it's done. I only had a few hours to work these past couple of days. I hope you like it, it's all one simple mechanic and one short level :).
Click space to start the game. Click space to move, try to collect all the hearts ;).
D'aww. Cute game. I really liked how the simple one button gameplay was done.
I think the bird could have had some kind of growing and shrinking animation to show he is flying closer to the screen, and the first hazards could be different color than the background and look hazardous too, because it wasn't very clear at first what killed me. They looked too much part of the background.
Simple game, but its not too intuitive what elements will kill you. That took a little time to figure out how to play the game. The graphics a really cool though.
Nice game, or it managed to keep me enough interested to get the good ending. Cute. The parts that kill you could have been a bit clearer but still a nice little game :)
Lol just a small note, you can beat the game by only holding space but you won't get the good ending. It's done on purpose to punish people who play it passively :).
What I loved : - so cute ! - 2D art - complete and pretty polished
what imo could be improved : - the depth effect (I first thought the bird was just getting bigger) - Could not find out what the green part of the level was representing - no variation in gameplay, only visual changes in the level. - (very subjective) the relation to the theme is not strong (I think some elements should accentuate more the link to the theme)
Cute game! So, I of course played by just holding down space(horrible me). But maybe instead of even allowing that, why not add barriers that you only hit when you're big? Then the player has to actually use the mechanics you implemented.

Great game, I actually finished it! Like the sound and simple mechanics. only 72 hearts though! Congrats on finishing your game. Can't wait to see more!
Charming. Perhaps you could add some obstacles to the foreground as well, to make it a more challenging. I love the way it turns into night - great effect. For some reason the background color during nighttime is brighter if I'm in the foreground though... bug?

cool graphics
Good work.

Great job though. I enjoyed it.
despite of that very cheerful entry :)

Overall neat and efficient, thanks for the game !
