Very enjoyable game! Great artstyle and relaxing music. It took me a while to understand the feeding mechanic but I managed to complete the game. Well done!

Cute game. I enjoyed seeing the cat.

I think the movement speed was a bit slow even with space held. It also took me a bit to realize the tree trunks were in the background and not solid.

Had a good time! Though it took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out the tree trunks weren't walls lol.

Nice visuals and music, I also like how the theme was implemented.
The camera moved a bit abruptly when changing directions because of the lookahead behavior, but it wasn't that bothering.

Completed the game and enjoyed my time, congrats!

I like that a few people have done animal / exploration type games. I ran into some trouble when I flew really high. At some point, I wasn't able to come down until I moved over to the right. Interesting idea!

Earned an extra star for the drama of that intro-sequence alone. Had some confusion about the logic of various objects in the world (e.g. you CAN fly through trees, you CANT fly through black vines) but the gameplay was honestly pretty enjoyable.

Nice intro! As other mentioned, the movement was slow, and there were things that were not intuitive about the visuals, like what was an obstacle and what was going to hurt the bird. I did beat it, but I was hoping for more of a finale given how long it took, and the quality of the intro. The art and music was pleasant throughout. Good work to the team!

Lovely game with a cute art style. I do feel like the game was a bit chaotic, but overall good.

Loved to see another animal exploring game.
The world was big and worth exploring.
Found some sun flower garden.
I also liked the music.
Good game :)

Holy shmoozies this game is hard. Sound effects have been done really well, frighteningly immersive. Especially that gong. Could use with a bit more feedback on the timer, etc. Good work overall :)

Super cute visuals and such pleasing background music!

NomadicRockMan5 Oct 2022, 23:47

Loved the art and sound. Had a bit of trouble controlling the character. WASD did not appear to work and the first time I launched the game the arrow keys mapped to the wrong directions, and I eventually got stuck. It was also difficult to tell what I could fly through and what I couldn't fly through. Overall, though, I do see some potential here.

Very nice intro. Nice game, good job!

good game for an explorative experience, but would be great, if you make it less easier, like i didn't get much damage from hostile mobs, it didn't feel like you're getting any, but maybe it was an idea at the first place, like a meditative game. well done!

Relaxing game. I collected 67/75 coins. Thank you for submitting this!

Noir11 Oct 2022, 11:44

Pretty neat little game, with retro style graphics.
Nice time killer, good to relax too.

I did run into an issue where a coin was innaccessible though. Something to look out in future versions/games!

Solah11 Oct 2022, 12:55

This is a very good game! I enjoyed the art and the great music! Controls are good. I think the game lacks of feedbacks when we get hit by an enemy.

Well done!

@noir oh lmao. i put that coin in am impossible spot for a moment as a joke to the other folks on the team and I guess i forgot to remove it oops.
