Step aside Pokemon Snap! Cool innovation on the formula and a fitting one for the jam. I wish I had some on screen hints how to play, otherwise a cool entry!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

I like the idea, I wish I knew before I started that the amount of bird per photo would be my score, I would have played differently. I would also like to see a bit more gameplay, like being able to speed up or down the wagon to try to be in better position for a shot, or lures.

Developer

Thanks, yes the score calc was put in very quickly and in general I scoped down very aggressively. Thanks for the suggestions!

That was a nice trip through the mountains :-)  I wasn't sure if it was better to photograph the different coloured birds, the birds on the ground or just any birds I could see :-D   Seems that it's a case of "the more the merrier".

Nice concept and seemed fairly smooth on my system (Linux, Brave browser).

Developer

Thanks! Yes originally I wanted more objectives for you, but in the interest of time just implemented "number of birds". Thanks for sharing your specs!

Hah I loved Pokemon snap - really cool concept, would love to see a more polished version. got some stuttering when taking pictures (dunno if its just a webGL thing) Great work!

Developer

Thank you! I think it's a webGL thing, I'm curious what browser and operating system you are using?

Submitted

Windows 10 and Chrome latest

Developer

Great thanks! I'll make a windows version and also check that configuration  ✅
