♫ chicken chicken chicken chicken goose ♪ <-- That song is going to be stuck in my head all week now. I hope you're happy.
This game was way more fun than it had any right to be! The controls were janky in such a qwop-tastic, intentional way, and I appreciated the way the game always made it possible for me to back-derive my down count if I did lose track. I do wish that the Birds/Items buttons had icons on them, though, and more obvious highlighting when they were selected, since it took me a while to figure out what was going on with those. It also took me a hot second to realize I had to stuff the mattress and not just drop the feathers into the hole. I also had an issue where my mouse would go off the game area and the game would freeze due to losing focus, though that is definitely because I have a second monitor, not really the fault of the game itself.
But overall, it was a surprisingly zen experience to catch birds and steal their down! Also, that background music unironically elevates the whole experience - it's both chill and absolutely jamming.
