Great Work on the Concept. I really liked Art in the Game specially the Bird and the UI Buttons

Neat little slingshot game! The LD game player doesn't do it justice, as there's not much room to pull back the slingshot. Great job, though, I liked it! :smile:

Amazing Game

Nice game! I enjoyed some of the back and forth the bird did, and the powerups where fun.

Moving targets + multiple targets + arcing projectile have a surprising amount of consequences to them. Take away any one of those elements and it falls apart and turns into a simple Angry Birds game that doesn't take any thought.

For this, I felt immediate calculations going through my head on each level. I had to figure out when and where to shoot based on the path that you designed. There's definitely some lizard brain fun in calculating these sorts of things, and I could feel that sensation happen.

So I'm quite impressed with how a few tweaks could change a gameplay up so much. It makes me think a few variations of this could be interesting too, such as lining up headshots in a sniper game. Very fun for such a short ride!

solid entry, the music was a bop and I never got annoyed by it.

Reminds me of angry birds. But nice game overall, liked the style and feel. Maybe a display about your "Health" would be nice?

Liked the music and art in the game. Had fun trying to predict my stone throw along the bird's path.

At times it felt like the paths were a bit short and everything moved kind of fast, if it were slower there could be more skill in lining up shots. Also occasionally the path blended into the background and made it quite hard to see.

Also I found the powerups a bit difficult to understand and use.

But otherwise nice game!

Good game. if you drag the stone and hold when the bird moves across the stone, the bird hits the stone and the player scores, and you can throw the stone immediately to earn points again. This isn't a big bug, but I don't think the player should be able to do that kkkkk Great game!

Good graphics! The irregular movement routes make it a little more difficult, but the routes that can be seen in advance allow the player to plan ahead, interesting design! Well polished!

Great concept and cute graphics! :)

Nice game. I liked the fact that you could still hit the bird offscreen for more points between the rounds.

It's a simple concept but pretty well executed. Yes it does reminds of angry birds but I like the idea the track change every 10 seconds. I think the game was a bit to easy though, I did get bored after scoring 33 points. I believe adding some obstacles could help with that.

Keep up the good work :smile:

The path line that the birds and powerups take is a little hard to see against the light background. Having said that, this is a very nicely executed game with a good amount of variety. I had a fun time playing it. Good job!

Love the graphics, really fun game!

You know at first I thought this would be similar to angry birds but it doesn't feel like it at all! Not showing the trajectory line and having to hit a moving target does make it more interesting. Although I felt the rock speed was pretty slow and didn't feel like it had much of an impact. It feels like the time between shots is too long and when you run out of rocks in the end you still have to wait for the timer to reach 10 before you get a game over screen. With some slight improvements I think the overall quality of the game can be improved by a lot because the mechanic itself is quite fun. Well done, overall :)

this was really fun to play and I like the spin on an angry birds style game! I would say maybe have the stone be faster than the bird imo

Funny game. I like the humour and the game is fun to play. Nice work.

nice game to play, maybe adding some gravity to the rock would be nice, but it was cool to play
