To be honest, I find the idea a bit boring (Flappy birds combined with some Picking coins and some fuel limitations) – also, I am not a big fan of Flappy birds. The implementation, and – to be more exact – the audio aspect of it– compensate for that, though.

All things considered: An a bit boring idea (in my opinion) with a much better implementation (especially in mood and audio).

Thank you for sharing.

Very glad you appreciated our game, even if not the game concept.
We tried to come up with a fun game with challenging levels. Cheers.

Levels were relatively interesting, although I felt there were a few unforgiving parts. Besides that, there were a couple parts where coin chasing caused me to die either through missing fuel or hitting walls - I list that as an issue because the typical suggested path in level design is to use the score object (like coins) to guide the player in the right direction, and this game did a little of the opposite.

Also, while the games concept wasn't that interesting or innovative, and it did feel like the theme was a little stuffed in randomly, but the audio was pulled off quite well, and the controls (even if they were only one button) were smooth to use and I wasn't left feeling frustrated.
