I really enjoyed it for a bit, until the music got a bit too repetitive and I realized the bird was moon flying like he was bird Michael Jackson. Love the concept though, and it performed fine.

The executable doesn't work for me (64-bit windows) - it just opens a ton of processes but no actual windows.

I liked what I played, but got stuck pretty early on. Damn those owls

When you compile in game maker be sure to change it from the .msi installer to the .exe standalone executable. nobody wants to install a bunch of games for the ludum dare it's too much work

The concept was actually really good. It had a great interesting idea :D The only bad thing was repetitive music. Still, it was pretty fun.

This is horrible. As soon as shapeshifting was introduced, I already found a glitch.

Good Job for second LD :).

Cute game, I enjoyed the owls - especially that second to last level with a whole bunch of them (even though that was easy).
Could use a little more polish on the movement, level transitions - but hey, it's a game jam. I'd like to see some harder puzzles too. And if you can't find good background music (it's too repetitive) I would suggest maybe just going with ambient noises.

Cool concept, but I feel like it could be further polished. ALso the music is very repetitive. Cool game though

Damn those owls! Only thing i can criticise is jump sound which repeats with every tap of up arrow, it would be nice if it played only if player is on the ground.

nice simple puzzle game. I suck at the controls heh

A couple of programming bugs which made it awkward at times, but I do like the idea. Wish you took more advantage of it though and perhaps gave the boy an ability over the bird.
As a note, when exporting with GameMaker, if it is a small game like this just make it an standalone executable rather than an NSIS installer.

Nice and simple game with a good concept. I liked the flying poop king. Some of the levels had nice puzzles too!

Not the most polished game but it has some pretty good platform puzzles.

Not bad. The music loop got to me by the end, and I don't know what the deal with that huge owl at the end is. It just made the game restart. Not too bad overall though.

Good job! I really enjoyed the concept, even though I was a bit confused at first.

The installer was annoying, but the game was fun. A few bugs though.




I made it to the boss, but I just came back to the main screen when I touched him. Have I finished the game?
