At first I was a little annoyed by unforgiving colliders and somewhat clumsy controls, but when the dive mechanic came in I really fell in love with it! Died a lot of times before finishing the first level, but it was so much fun! Great implementation of this mechanic! Also good luck with your steam game, added to wishlist!

It's the best I've seen in this edition of the jam.

I could see this being an atari game. I especially like the bakcground art. Good work!

Developer

Well it might be :)

Happy that you liked it! your game is also very cool!

Eagleste! Wow that is a well-animated eagle lol. Looks and sounds great.

I'm mostly impressed by your camera work. The camera does a superb job of showing you just enough. Really nice level design considering the viewing constraints.

Developer

Thanks! there were some challenges regarding the small resolution, and the camera work was tailored very carefully to give the player the best experience, I liked that you noticed that :)

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how nice your itch.io page is? Like, I mean, there should be an award just for that. Oh, and the game is really good, too. It reminded me of flappy bird, but we have extra mechanics. The music is great and the art, especially the background, is amazing. Great job!

Agreed lol. Obviously a great game but wow that page looks profesh.

Really happy to hear that you liked it!

Super nice game, I found it was harder if I hold the fly button, I consumed the energy faster than if I press and release multiple times , not sure if that was the idea/part of the game. I enjoyed the puzzles, my only regret is sometimes the spikes (mainly the corners) kill you from a pixel perfect collision and I would've preferred to be more player friendly for those cases, or change a bit the spikes since I was flying and for me I dodged the spikes but I was always killed.

Developer(+1)

I noticed that if you hold the fly button it consumes the energy faster, but for some reason it happens only on the browser, didn't have time to fix it before the deadline.

About the collisions, it was hard to design it using the small screen resolution, in this case removing 1 or 2 pixels from the collider may affect the behavior of the eagle in many ways. If the screen was bigger, there was much more space for user friendly colliders :)

I like the art and the area, but it’s seriously tough. I am happy I managed to collect a single egg!

Developer

There are many more challenges, try to collect all of the eggs!

Submitted

Quite enjoyable but also pretty difficult. The art looks great!

Developer(+1)

Yes, it's a little bit hard :) happy that you liked it!

Difficult, but VERY good. Gives me 'Ecco the Dolphin" vibes :)

Developer

Beautiful little game. Level design difficulty progression well thought through.

Developer

Thank you very much! I also liked your amazing game!

Very well put together! Sprite animations are very well made. Controls were just a bit difficult at the start, but I eventually figured it out. Music is Incredible, such a dope OST. Though, in my opinion, it doesn't exactly fit the vibe I was expecting. Still very, very well composed though. Great Job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks!!!

The controls are easy to learn hard to master :)

I showed your comment to our composer, he was so happy :)

Great game!

Really recommend playing it windowed, shows the great art in the best way.

couldn't get the bonus egg, but I had fun playing the game - very smooth and tight controls.

Developer

The jittering occurs due to the jam's rule of 64X64 pixels.
I also recommend playing it windowed.
Very happy to hear that you had fun playing it!
