Funny idea, but I'm not a fan of button smashers types of game. Cool application of the theme though!

Pretty cool application of the theme! The visuals are also great, what would be cool is if you could add more variety to the game in terms of obstacles and stuff like that. Great work!

Ha ha. Is that Yoda in trying to master the Force? Nice twist on the Flappy Bird concept while still matching the theme of the jam, I thought. Has a nice one more go factor to it. The best strategy is apparently to button mash the CTRL on the left and right side of the keyboard so that the ball stays on the top of the screen and letting go for a split second only if a bird appears on that part of the screen. 3600 is my high score. There is not a whole lot to do though so the novelty soon wears off. Perhaps make the screen not so static and add some strategy to the CTRL mashing aspect?

Very fun game. The winning strategy seems to be to stay around the lane before the upper most one. I got 3300 points and what I think it lacks is variety and something to strive for.

You should make another game but instead you have to smash the birds instead :)
