eh, it's a bit too empty sadly. maybe if it lasted just a little longer then it would be nice. graphics are pretty though.

Nice art!

Felt a little directionless once I got the sword.

blobo 2015-04-20 22:31

i had a great time killing the butterflies with the sword, but i got stuck in the ground after a few minutes of not knowing what to do.

hm i didn't hear any music. I using chrome

orava 2015-04-20 22:53

@petey @Blobo I've added a walkthrough spoiler section that should cover all your needs.

@mokujin working fine here on latest Chrome. It may take a bit to load since it's loading in dropbox. (Also make sure you don't start the game muted.)

Holy hells that animation of the flailing bird made me laugh xD

Very nice-looking art, I really dig the style, pretty unique for an LD. Music was very good, and so were the dialogues. Solid entry all around, good luck!

Very nice art. I can't choose the fly away option at the man, though.

cheshyr 2015-04-21 13:01

interesting concept. good art and music; the multiple endings was a nice touch. well done.

It's really pretty and it's a fun idea. Took some time to figure out what to do and it's quite easy to accidentally scroll past text. Eventually got stuck in the ground.

I think I might have encountered a bug, the first time I played it through I got Helping, Unity by chance, then seeing multiple endings tried to get them all. For some reason though I was unable to get beyond helping? As no matter which option I chose in speaking to the man, it took me to the ending where the man dies. I get the impression that "fly away" in that first conversation is MEANT to let me go get the fish but it just went to the end screen.

Shame because I really wanted to finish it, I liked it.

Very nice game, I really like the drawings, and the absurd story. It would be great with some noises

orava 2015-04-21 13:45

@The4thCircle Thanks, it should be fixed now. Restarting wasn't clearing a flag properly so it caused the dialogue to mess up.

sbot1101 2015-04-21 13:46

I spent way too long playing this. it's great. though i gave the man all the fish and the bag at the same time and he didn't want anything else from me after :(

orava 2015-04-21 13:47

If anyone can give me more details on the ground sticking bug, you know where to find me.

A sword is not an unconventional weapon... unless you are a bird! I loved the mood of this, and helping the lonely warrior was a great turn of story - loved it

frc_ol 2015-04-21 16:06

pretty bird

jungle 2015-04-21 16:21

Good game. I think that a sword is not an unconventional weapon. Graphs are great! Controls are ok. Multiple ending is AWESOME! Congrats!

hexdie 2015-04-22 03:57

I really enjoyed this one! Flying around was enjoyable, the art was fantastic and the music was very good and fitting. I got the "Helping, infinite perching, and friends" ending, which was pretty rewarding to figure out. Very nice work!

rallebauz 2015-04-22 09:50

The graphics and music is very well done

thegamefather 2015-04-22 09:53

It's uncommon to see this kind of game nowadays. I like it. It's like reading a story. Not a fun game, but is a good game.

newt_ 2015-04-22 23:39

Very nice looking! An initial goal or something could have been useful, but great work nonetheless!

kihira 2015-04-22 23:41

I'm not sure what's unconventional about a sword, but this game was adorable and I liked the multiple endings.

sorak86 2015-04-22 23:50

Nice, love this one :)

Gave u 5 in innovation, graphics and mood!

jmborden 2015-04-22 23:50

Poor bird.

Solid entry, cool graphics and music. Instructions were quite necessary, otherwise there'd be no way for me to figure things on my own. Still, a good game. Congrats!
