nice game.

The bird swooping in makes it a little more suspenseful! I would play into that mechanic more and make it more random or something as it's a little too easy right now to send out the collectors until you hear the warning noise. I would probably also speed up everything as collecting flies takes too long and there's no goal. The loop is too limited, in my opinion, for it to be an infinite goal. Maybe would be better if there was a specific collection goal to progress to the next level or something along those lines.

Thanks for the review. There was a few more things i wanted to add, and i did want to expand on the bird abit more and add pickups, but the deadline for the gamejam was coming up. Hopefully my next gamejam will go better.

You did a lot considering the short deadline! I think feedback is useful for taking into the next project. For me, the whole point of these jams is just to force yourself to make a completed game, even if it's not great, because you'll learn a lot yourself, and from your fellow jammers!

Its somewhat repetetive and im a little unsure if i might have missed something, since I didnt notice the bird having any effect. Still its a valid game and can definetly be something to be proud of.

If the bird swoops in while one of your ants is out to collect a fly and turn it in, you lose a life so that's what the bird does mechanics-wise.
