How it feels

A cheerful, exploration-focused puzzle-platformer where you guide a parade of baby birds to safety against cute but threatening obstacles.

What players say

Players call it a short, family-friendly platformer with an educational message about light pollution harming petrels. The art and music are praised, but most finish in 1–2 hours and note the lack of in-game volume controls.
