Very cool and it's fun to see something so different, but harkening back to the days of joust. Just as difficult to control as when I was a kid! I did have the music cut out at some point and not return, but everything else was solid!
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it! Unfortunately yes there is a bug with the song not looping on web, I have a fix that I'll bring in after the jam ends!
Definitely took a second to get used to, but definitely very fun once I got started. Wish there were more opportunities to use Glide
Thanks for playing! I agree about the glide, one idea I have is to make an "advance" version after the jam with a larger resolution, so it'll be easier to line up glides
Fun game! I thought the controls were very weird at the start, but once I got used to them I really liked them!
Great game! It felt hard in the tradition of the games that inspired it. If this were in an arcade cabinet it would be slurping my quarters.
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it! Admittedly I underestimated the time I'd need to tune it all up at the end
Amazing game! it's really fun to fly around with so much speed, i sure am glad that hitting walls doesn't damage you, i wouldn't even be able to pass the first level that way.
Glad you enjoyed the movement! The bird does get quite speedy. It's funny you mention the walls, because I ran out of time to implement my spike traps!
good game with interesting gameplay and soundtrack
Thanks for playing!
