nice concept!

red_fan-games 2015-04-20 02:53

i wish there more games like this in the mainstream (I would buy this)

latency 2015-04-20 03:05

That was pretty sweet

peejaygee 2015-04-20 03:07

really like this idea.

ultravisitor 2015-04-20 03:08

This is a cool idea. The tiny pixel art is nice to watch. I particularly enjoy walking with my flock.

nuclearchocolate 2015-04-20 03:08

I'm not sure if im doing the right thing or not.

eriku 2015-04-20 03:09

A nice little game. It was fun roaming the map and getting more and more ducks. Those robots took a while to go down though, haha. Best to group them and spam bread while running away. Nice application of the theme, well done.

Nice! I loved my army of ducks from hell! I was great sending them to destroy the giants :) Thanks!

aroymart 2015-04-20 03:16

This was amazing. i love the art and there's just something so satisfying about controlling where a flock of birds goes. i kinda just sat around bringing my birds everwhere i could instead of focusing on fighting

flygamer101 2015-04-20 03:33

Very nice, I loved the idea, but everything was a bit too small and hard to sea. That idea seemed to fit in with the ducks, but not the player. Then, i played again and saw how great small pixels are. All in all very nice game.

rantt 2015-04-20 03:35

That was really cool. Watching my army of ducks taking down 4 giant robots was oddly satisfying...lol. Short game but lots of fun, great job :)

fanttum 2015-04-20 04:06

Really nice game here. Some things could be better, but a really nice idea. Was a bit easy if i stayed away from the giants and clicked by the edge of the screen, cause then they couldn't attack me it seem. Really nice feel fighting them however. good job.

jbasinger 2015-04-20 04:06

Nailed the theme. Nice job!

jordyadan 2015-04-20 04:06

really like the idea and the attack mode

thebigshot 2015-04-20 04:08

Bets game so far; This is the bets game i have played so far. Very well done. Love the duck sounds and the way they move around the player. The only flaw with it is that there is not enough variety to the attacks or movement of the ducks. But love the concept and the execution. Well done :)

parahunter 2015-04-20 04:16

Duck Power! Great game, lovely art, good quacks.

crewderek 2015-04-20 04:16

Funny concept and a fun gameplay experience, was a little short, but music was good. Hard to find giants and could use a bit more of a challenge.

havacore 2015-04-20 04:53

Victory!!!

Man this is a hilarious idea. I really enjoyed it

jackrugile 2015-04-20 06:36

Loved your concept, Ernesto! The golem art is so sick.

dragonxvi 2015-04-20 09:48

Ducks could do with a bit of flocking AI to seperate them, they sort've all fuse together when attacking :p Interesting idea though

chuigum 2015-04-21 21:40

5 stars in innovation! Great I really like how small the player and birds are. Awesome music too. Yes, of course I supported the game with some $!

gunzil 2015-04-22 01:50

As a fellow duck-based combat enthusiast, I highly approve.

I like gathering your flock of ducks with bread. It would be nice if the ducks latched onto the golems like Pikmin so I didn't need to keep repeatedly clicking.

5 ducks / 5

phocker 2015-04-22 04:26

fantastic idea - loved the flocking - great job

daltostronic 2015-04-23 01:55

Haha, this is great! :D

squeka 2015-04-23 12:48

ducks rule! :D

emmelineprufrock 2015-04-24 04:34

I AM A MIGHTY DUCK GOD.

Seriously though, I really enjoyed the concept. Everything from the nifty art style to the pounding music to the ducks really solidified the experience for me.

onlyslightly 2015-04-24 04:34

Lovely minimalist style and hilarious game mechanic. I felt quite powerful harnessing the strength of a duck swarm. Great job!

cryotube 2015-04-24 04:34

Enjoyable duck animations! Those giants really take a long time to go down, though.

andrewkennedy 2015-04-24 21:13

Clever idea for a game. Spam-clicking was a little overpowered. Perhaps making the ducks much stronger and adding a bread throwing (clicking) limit would have made it more strategic.

terraneola 2015-04-25 12:50

As a child, I used the same weapon :) Really fun game and quite hard.

spriters2000 2015-04-25 16:28

the concept is smart, but the game is a bit too simple and short.

embalaje 2015-04-25 16:45

Good game! Good idea! Simple but effective graphs, good music and easy but powerfull gameplay.

arcturusdeluxe 2015-04-25 17:19

Cool idea. It's simple but pretty fun. I didn't realise ducks were such badasses.

jakob37 2015-04-26 14:14

I liked this a lot, great fun :) Some more feedback on ducks damaging golems (and bullets?) would have felt good, otherwise - no complains. Seems to have a lot of potential for future development, I hope you'll keep it up :)

nameoftheuser 2015-04-27 03:03

Nice job! I died many times, but my chicken strike-force defeated the things eventually!

deadbodyoutline 2015-04-27 03:43

Hahah, duck duck attack! pretty funny game, and nice music as well! Maybe the enemies could take different directions, at some point they are all moving together.

Pretty cool!

gil_villarreal 2015-04-27 05:35

Very clever idea! Simple controls and easy to play quickly! Well done.

seankimdesign 2015-04-27 05:58

That was pretty fun. I liked the charming graphics as well as the simple controls. Kudos!

retrogradeorbit 2015-04-27 06:19

You explored a mechanic that is a difficult undertaking and pulled it off and made it look good and most importantly, be fun to play! I really enjoyed it.

tdogandnatedizzleproductions 2015-04-27 07:06

Short and sweet.

curial 2015-04-27 08:34

I want more ducks special powers! Funny concept and great approach to the theme.

druid 2015-04-27 09:16

Really cool concept! Duck vs giant robots from space! :D Maybe best idea here :D

sararycow 2015-04-27 22:26

That's a fun game. Very playable but pretty easy and short when you get used to it.

But a nice experiment thought :).

wan 2015-04-29 18:09

Nice work on the graphics & sound! The flock movement works well too, at least when we're not spamming the mouse too much :P

The gameplay itself is fun for 3min it takes to finish it, otherwise sadly there's not much strategy/replayability in here, I kept clicking the golems to death and it worked :P

I've thought a bit about possible improvements to make the game more strategic... Maybe you could make the golems be afraid of the birds, but give finer control over the flock, letting the player try to surround the golems and attack them from all directions? Or something like that!

lochmann-apps 2015-05-04 09:45

Nice idea of a unconventional weapon! Good game!

jupiter_hadley 2015-05-11 15:24

Quite the funny game! I included it in part 9 of my Ludum Dare 32 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/eqkTJc6zIls
