How it feels

A fast and precise puzzle-platformer that keeps you on edge as a constantly bouncing bird, requiring quick reflexes to avoid deadly obstacles.

What players say

Players describe a short, precision platformer where the bird bounces automatically, controlled with left and right only. The 20 levels get frantic fast, and opinions split: some find the trial-and-error frustration rewarding, while others call the design sadistic and unpolished. Most finish in under two hours and say the price is fair, though a few see it as too expensive for the length.
