Very nice art and smooth gameplay in this one. Classic game concept but a little bit hard. Nice work!
I really love the color pallete and pixel art. The overall presentation is great. Creating a simple game definitely worked out here, because it was so polished. Sucks that I suck at flappy bird and can't beat the high score tho. Good Game!
Really well done and cute entry! The sound ghost makes when getting hit is so cute. Graphics are minimal but it has an awesome aesthetic. I loved the parallax background. In game jams, they usually make pixel art disoriented and sometimes discordant, but you handled it perfectly! As a little detail I really liked randomized text in death scene, it's a little but good touch. I also liked the second mechanic, shooting. Heart targets spawn rarely, so it changes the way you play the game, you start to say "Pillar, next pillar, pillar, oh health, HEALTH!, HEALTH!" So RNG and spawn rate system handled perfectly :D
My only complaint and nitcpick would be sometimes cave pillars spawn each other so closely, that they don't behave so generously when giving you a reaction time.
Long story short, game is amazingly polished. Good job! Have a great day!
As others said, idea is not that unique. But execution is perfect. Gameplay feels right and polished. Graphics are very cute. Music is nice to the ear.
Nice little game. The concept is not novel, but still fun to play. The graphics is really good and the overall game is quite polished. I would only suggest to clarify how the floating souls would grant you extra points. I can see the score increasing once I hit one of them but there's no clear animation of vfx setting it apart from regular game points.
Very cool and well made game and i didn't even want to smash my computer after i died lol. I have one serious gripe though, and it's less with the game and more with WHO THE HECK GOT OVER 3500???!!!
Very cute ghost-themed flappy bird-like game, but less frustrating and (at least seemingly) easier. Having more than "one health" and having a chance to heal makes the game more forgiving. :)
Taking damage seems to be visually "indicated" by a short freeze, perhaps an effect like particles or flashing might be a better choice, but this is a minor issue. The color palette is very nice and easy on eyes. :)
I like this. Great work! :)
Pretty neat, simple flappy bird twist, some of the jumps were tight but it was still pretty fluid, nice!
I do love me a solid pun
it’s flappy bird, it’s quite oftenly done in jams and you made a much less annoying version compared to the original.
the art is simple/flat (not a negative) and works well
as points of improvement: could use a bit more juice (particles, shake, flashing, many options) on either being hit or hitting the enemies
Really cool art style, I love the fact that you take damage instead of dying immediately.
charming art style, interesting spin on the original and the hitstun on taking damage was perfect. great job!
