Shoot birds with a Beliebler Blow Horn or Millennium Falcon.

WHAT I LIKE
I love how the theme song turned out. I also painstakingly mastered the Millennium Falcon sounds which I'm happy with. Unfortunately, it is mostly low base so it's hard to hear on some speakers.

WHAT I DON'T LIKE
The game is only really a challenge with the conventional weapon. I'd like more time for deeper game play.

Great game. I'm have very joyfull experience. And usage of Han Solo vessel for hunting birds is very fun.

Hilarious! Watching the Milennium Falcon tear into those poor birds was great.

Lol. Really cool game. It was fun :D

It's a bit inconvenient that clicking to begin the wave also shoots the gun, especially when the Falcon wipes the early waves and sends you right back to the results. :P

Great color choices, enjoyed the mood and sounds a lot. :)

The audio plays weird for me. It's like there can't be multiple sound effects at the same time. Sometime the blow horn does not play sound. Anyway, it's fun to play. I like the choice of weapon.

Really nice graphics! But the gameplay didnt offer much for me, sorry! Also i couldnt get past the first level cuz my game bugged on firefox.

Some lovely and funny ideas, and the graphics and music set it off nicely. Gameplay is a bit limited, but enjoyable nonetheless.

nice graphics, lovely touch with the blow horn, may slightly break the compo rules though :)

Now I want MORE unconventional weapons! Please make some more!

The first few moments in this game were pretty funny. Very fun to play. My only problem with it is that there is way too little weapon variety. I would play this over and over just to see what kind of weapon I get next.

haha very good use of the theme, very funny game.

It's fun and pleasing looking but it doesn't ramp up in difficulty or add new things so it gets boring after 2 minutes.
Garris20 Apr 2015, 21:32
The blow horn was hilarious and it really killed those birds dead. Fun little game, good use of theme.

Graphics were all gray in my version, but I won't vote it wrong. Interesting game, the weapons were great, specially the millenium bird :P

Nice clean, simple graphics. Need more weapons!

As a joke, sure. The game... well, there isn't much of it, is there?
marinalucio21 Apr 2015, 10:24
This game cracked me up! Great art style (i'm a big lover of low poly, hence my game) and the idea is very creative. I wanted to get more obnoxious weapons so bad! Good work. :)

As you asked eastes, here is my review on your game. First thing: it's huge. It'll take me half at least an hour to download it. After 40 minutes I've finally played it. I really don't know how this game was so huge, since it's so small. But small doesn't mean bad. Graphics were ok, audio was ok (except for the Belieber Horn) and the Belieber Horn was unconventional, even though it didn't have any innovative mechanics (same for Millenium Hawk). It was fun to play, but only for a very short amount of time. If you want to work further on this game, you need to create new mechanics for the weapons and something that would encourage the player to play more than just 2 minutes. For example, make it a rail shooter with a story and a shop with weapons and upgrades (people love buying weapons and upgrades). Overall it's 3/5 to me. (For me 3/5 is a good game, but lacking some features)

hahaha you should add more weapons in a post compo version! Nice job

That believer horn XD
Like you said the game is a bit too easy, but fun nonetheless.
I like the birds they are funny looking, somewhat like zeppelins :D

Where is the link to the source code? Compo entries require it.

I do like the look of the graphics. The sound is quite good too. Having different unconventional weapons to choose from is an idea I haven't yet come across yet. Nice job.

Very geeky and funny game :-)

I've had tons of fun playing this absolutely amazing game. Humour was quite nice, although there wasn't really any challenge. Graphics were quite nice too. Overall, great job!
Volatile Dove28 Apr 2015, 18:23
5/5 for the graphics, it's so colorful! And the Bieber horn and the Falcon are both really good ideas.

This would be better if the player was able to move, it's a little bit frustrating to not be able to move.
It would also be better with the music shut off or reduced temporarily when Bieber sing (even if maybe more difficult to endure, haha).

PS: Poor cute birds :(

I looked at your previous games and well... you might have a bird problem.

I loved the art style, and overall level design - giant, not so subtle block with game title was a nice touch.

I wonder what's legal status of remixing Justing Bieber in compo game?
DarkGrisen1 May 2015, 13:06
I prefer the conventional weapon so i dont know what to say about the theme XD

The game is really fun but I wanted to walk around :(
MrShoestore1 May 2015, 14:35
visually looks good, and the millennium falcon gave me a chuckle. could use more variety, but its a compo entry, so thats ok

Lack of ability to invert the mouse + high mouse sensitivity means that I can't actually hit the birds.

Love your unconventional weapon and your art style.

Your game was gorgeous. I smiled so hard when I realized how the Belieber weapon worked. I had to stop and think about what I was doing and try to frame the context (it was still very hard to not make it ridiculous no matter how hard I tried to rationalize it) I loved the saturated colors and the low poly style. I know the Millenium Hawk was supposed to be a joke but it actually looked really cool. Loved it :)
