Really beautiful game, Really like the crisp audio and art style.

Wow, Great entry. I love how you made all the elements of the game fit the story. The balloons as a marker for health, The enemies being flying object and the reason why the player is falling from the sky is hilarious. Good job had a lot of fun.

The art and the audio is what sells it !

What a beautiful entry. It's both cute and humorous, and feels extremely well polished. I love what you did to the music every time the player lost a life. One thought though, is that it is a bit unforgiving as the gun doesn't really have that much power. Perhaps increase it somewhat? Well, good job anyways on this one!

Nice game, Liked the intro and game mechanic. When you start falling very fast it's difficult to control your movement + react, I think it would be better if the camera would start to focus more on what's below and not on where you are aiming.

Great game, I had a fun time playing it. One thing I'd change is to increase the strength of your air gun a bit - right now I've either had no way of reacting to some dangers and lost pretty quickly, or I've played most of the game with the gun pointed downwards, constantly shooting to slow my descent. Other than that, a really solid and fun entry. :)

@m8rix Thanks for the feedback! The recoil of the gun was indeed something I had some trouble with figuring out which was the perfect number for this.

@glaciereclipse That's a good point, thanks!

Fun little game. I like the concept but I only wish that there was a little more like power ups or something. Overall though I did have fun playing it. Very simple and effective.

It's very comfortable.

That was a really fun game! I loved that the shooting moved you as you fall. I think it would be cool if you could destroy the drones and they had a chance to drop a present. Might be a neat feature :) Also BIRDS ARE JERKS lol

That was a pretty fun game! I liked the recoil concept a lot and the balance between shooting birds/gifts and moving out of the way was really interesting to work with. I agree with other suggestions about moving the camera/increasing the recoil, but overall well done!

Nice game, proper art and music, at the beggining I was scared to shoot upwards to not hit my ballons. I love the fast music when you lost your balloon. Great entry bro.

Cool game! The graphics and music are charming and the shoot action that allows to push back birds and move is clever. Well done!

docgeraud 2020-04-22 13:44

Love this entry! It's like a cute mini retro game. The fact that the music speeds up when you have one life left is also really cool. And cute graphics. You did a great job :D

blackopsben 2020-04-22 15:05

Nice! I love the simplicity of control/play, and the dynamics of how losing a balloon makes you fall faster which is both a good and bad thing as far as helping you go faster but more dangerous.

sledzik 2020-04-22 16:56

nicely done game

chocolat-endive 2020-04-22 17:04

The graphics are cute and the controls are easy to understood. I didn't manage to get to the end. Is there one except for loosing?

keyo 2020-04-22 17:13

Sometimes I get a bad luck of falling without encountering anything, but I like the idea!

goldenevolution 2020-04-22 18:40

@chocolat-endive No, you basically try to fall as long as possible while obtaining as many gifts as possible

2kah 2020-04-29 10:43

This game is amazing! Everything about it is so well realised, well done
