I liked the music a lot. I still dont get the idea how to to get the full score out of the crops. There also are some issues with the readability of the blue font. But I still had fun with the game.

Thanks for your answer, I'm glad you enjoyed it and specially the music !
About score question, it forces to have a good strategy for taking a maximum of points on the crops.
There are a good few issues you're right, I finished the game at the last moment, it was also my first created.

I wish I could hear the music (something went wrong and it was silent for me)

Fun little concept, good instructions (take it from someone who's instructions page failed miserably!) I might make it appear on the screen a bit longer though

Overall pretty good. It even worked on my tablet. There was one bug where turning the music off didn't keep the off though

One of the best music of this LD by far! Great song, goes perfectly with the bird game. The game is fairly simple, catchy and fun. I see how it could definetely be adapted to a tablet/phone. A couple of things could be improved: the font for score comes out really weird. Also a way to pause or read the instructions without having the game play would be a huge plus :) Great job

How do you get to 300 ? O_o If I stay on the same place I don't get more point than if I move around...
Anyways, fun idea and good graphics/music. :)

I can't thank you enough for your all pleasant comments, it's really cool and motivating for me ! :)

LeReveur (I'm French) L'objectif est de rester sur une plantation le plus longtemps possible (jusqu'à 78 points possible) et ensuite changer en faisant attention à être sûr de pouvoir récupérer un maximum de points après l'avoir touché, je n'ai pas vraiment pu l'expliquer dans le tutoriel sinon ça aurait certainement été illisible ^^

There is potential here for sure, but right now I find the game lacks consistency. Did you actually create all of these assets (and music) yourself?
On another note, congrats for finding the time to add instructions, a mute button and an end screen. It makes the game feels more complete.

I like the bird movement. Really felt like the bird was flying. It was lots of fun to be a little bird and life its life - lol. Good Game!

Pretty good concept plus I liked the music a lot.

Neat! Difficult, though. I played a few times, but I still don't quite know how close you have to be to the plants, or whether you have to stay still...Also, I was waiting for the "Level 1 Start" text to disappear, but while I was waiting I got game over. :P That was a little unexpected, to say the least. Still, all in all it's a good effort. ;)

neat game...spend some time to figure out the controls but after that it was funny to play

Struggled with it for a bit. Difficulty is a bit high. Great music though. Instructions and buttons tended to overlap at times. Got to level 2 and died instantly which was annoying. Nice concept though!
