The controls felt nice, and the sounds were funny. When the lag was long, it made me feel a bit drunk and frustrated. Effective concept!

The graphics in this are breathtaking nature scenes.
The concept of the lag greatly increases the challenge and makes the infinite lives all but necessary.
As I played I started to think it's probably a good strategy to get the distant eggs first since the last egg you get will be under the most lag. But it's so tempting to get the nearest ones first.
Hahaha fun idea, well executed :)
Nice concept. It's like controlling rover on another planet, except it's a bird.
Cool idea to play with lags! :D
Nice Work!
Bringing lag in as an aspect of gameplay is genius. I found the first level doable, but the second was already too hard for me. But then, I suck at platformers of all kinds :)
I love the graphics and subtle sound effects. The really fast retry cycle is great, and that you don't have to walk back out to the eggs if you die on the way back.
Quite, very pretty and bloody frustrating. The good kind though, I kept trying because I felt myself getting better, adding lag bit by bit is a great way to learn a level before being challenged in it!
Overall a, though short, pretty good game :) nicely done
Overall a good game :) I like the idea of adding lag, although it makes the game a lot lot harder. Didn't get past level 2 :D
Ah ah ah, excellent frustrating game :D
SO HARD! Quite fun game.
This game is awesome! Love the concept of lag! It makes me angry and it makes me laugh! If that even makes sense. :D
Lag concept is innovative :)
The idea is pretty cool, I like it! I had some troubles with jumping, it seems that you bump off the ground sometimes and you can't jump, what makes it pretty difficult. In any case, nicely done!
Now this is an idea I've never seen before. I enjoyed playing it! The sound effects were particularly good - I did let LagBird fall down into the pits a few times so hear the bird sound :D
Interesting use of lag =]
Nice concept!
This was the first time I've ever seen lag as a gameplay mechanic. Ruthlessly annoying... but I mean it in a good way. I liked the bird.
Amazing idea, I had fun completing this :D
Nice ramping up of the difficulty!
I love the concept of using lag as a gameplay mechanic. Very innovative! I'd buy a more polished version of this with more scenarios to abuse the lag other than platforming difficulties. :)
This is the first time i enjoyed a lag!
I like the way you mind worked, please upgrade your internet connection now!
Very good game, gameplay is very difficult but it's ineresting, i like the theme!
Really good, with some improvements on the graphics, you could make this an interesting game! :)
