Good game! And great job with the presentation!

nice concept, good job :)

This was fun to play. Smooth mechanics, nice visuals, exciting music. The theme and limitation are both strong. Personally, I'd like a bit more of a backstory to explain why I can shoot bullets. Am I carrying a gun? Do I have magic powers? Am I spitting seeds at my enemies? You already have a little bit of worldbuilding (the idea that each Spring all the birds fight to be the king of crumbs), but I'd like to see a little bit more. You could even expand to some characterisation -- What is my name? Why do I want to be King of Crumbs? What will happen if I lose? But then I am a story-geek, so most of this feedback is just about my personal preference :) As I said, I really enjoyed this, so thanks for the cool game! :)

Firstly I too am a story geek so I appreciate all of the feedback towards my world building. If I had more time I definitely would’ve built more into it so I appreciate all of the things you suggested! :’)

nice game! the art and sounds are great, the controls are responsive ,  I like the way the  parallax scrolling gives the experience of constant motion. Overall I enjoyed playing , congratulations! keep it up!

Developer

Thanks!! I mainly tried to focus on controls and art so that it would look polished and wouldn't be janky. Thanks again

Super story introduction :D

I enjoyed the game, note that you could use a timer to avoid spam shooting (or maybe it's what you want :o).

Congrats !

Thanks, I really mess with world-building so I wanted to incorporate it into my game.  If you meant with enemy AI I ts just something I'm going to have to go back in and mess with at a later date xD

With some skew it could look like a Star Wars intro :p

Don't mention Mickey M...

Solid concept, art/animations, sounds. Good mechanics. I would prefer if the enemies were a little easier to clip and faster but I still enjoyed the ride :)  Good job

Aye thanks for the feedback, *note: make the enemies harder* got you I got you

Very nice art and animation! I appreciate that the losers don't vanish in a puff of smoke, but fall out of the sky.

The music was rather good, also. I realize you didn't create the music, but it goes well with the gameplay, so it was a good selection.

I would recommend you set it up so that some kind of fullscreen option is available. At this very large window size, I was unable to keep both the HUD (life/score) and the entire playable area onscreen at the same time.

Yeah I'm not a fan of a puff of smoke vanishes for some things and I felt like it would be more interesting for this game if you actually saw your work pay off (birds falling from the sky I mean)
