Nest Knockout is a game about surviving the troubles of being a fledgling. Fight your fellow birds to see who will become champion of the nest.

Controls
WASD to move,
Use mouse to look around
Push all of the other birds off to win

We have done several game jams in the past and wanted to delve into 3d for a change. This proved to be a larger undertaking than we initially expected and had to reduce the scope compared to previous games, but we are happy with the result.

Genres: action

Tools: Unity

This was a quite fun sumo idea ;D

First 5 runs I tried to evade enemies and it was kinda hard to win like that.
Once I figured out that I can push enemies too - it became a lot more enjoyable ;D

Gnarly idea, but thats nature I guess ;) Fun to play, unfortunately at lvl 3 at one point, the other birds just sunk to the ground :P Still a good job :)

Amazing! I don't really get the graphics, too dark imo. But the idea is so cool and fun to play. And these random facts about birds, thanks for furhter education XD

Funny concept but the jiggling camera is highly offputting and making me dizzy. Keep at it!

Camera rubber bands/jigles like crazy. Makes the game very hard to controll. Otherwise its fine, dou the birds slide a bit too much for my liking
