I love the stoner philosophy, and the art, also the music

I am a sucker for paper themed anything honestly. The texture you used for the back along with the hand drawn assets radiate such a mood. As for the game play, the circular bar works and it definitely gives me a sense of executing a full "flap". If there was another indicator of performing a good flap, that would have had me wanting to do more perfect flaps. (sfx, particles, or maybe some transform animation)
The death sfx did give me a bit of scare and almost sounded strikingly dark / melancholic sounding compared to presented feel of the game. If that is the soundscape you guys imagined, then you did a great job!!
Those are good ideas about the flap action. If we were to make a full game out of this, that would definitely be a priority to work on. There's so much room for improvement there, but it would take time to try out ideas and get it right.
As for the death sound, I think that's apt. Something simple with the piano but that still conveyed a feeling that a bad thing happened. Now that you mention it, maybe this game might be better without a failure state. The obstacles are mostly there to give you a reason to move around, hopefully without being difficult.
Thanks for your feedback!
What lovely animations. The graphics were a delight to watch. The music was a bit odd, but worked well too.
Good game and beautifully presented.
nice game! I like the art and the fluidity of the animation, playing this one is a relaxing experience for me, and reading the writings offer witty humor and evoke deep contemplation. I would like to play this again (very good replay value), overall I enjoyed playing, congratulations! keep it up!
I'm not sure what the circle around the penguin when I click means. The presentation is amazing though!
