It doesn't seem to work on my iPad - I see the intro screen but tapping doesn't do anything.. :( I'll have to try on the computer later... Nice graphics though.

Yeah, I didn't try to make touch controls. So you need to try on the computer. Sorry :(
Thanks about the graphics! ;)
It's nice but a little too hard. I couldn't make it too far without hitting a bird. I wish the birds came in a little later once the player gets the hang of flying, and I think it would be better if they only did damage, not insta-kill.
Wow! Really? Is it too hard? I will try to make some changes and if it is possible I will update the link. Thanks a lot for the feedback. :D
Nice scrolling background. It's a little tough to control the plane, the game is challenging. I agree with deathray; slowing down bird speed/spawn rate early on would help -- survival/endless games should have a continually increasing difficulty curve. I'd rather play with the spacebar than the LMB. When you go too high or too low the game kinda goes into limbo. I'd like to see an end game screen with my score (time). Or just put it on the start screen.
What I imagine is the "gas" meter at top is irrelevant. It's too easy to collect the teardrops that are everywhere. After a dozen attempts I managed to survive over a minute and avoid enough teardrops that the timer ran out -- but then the timer went negative and the game kept on going! :) I recommend you decrease the number of teardrops and make them give more gas. Or perhaps have a few birds "towing" gas cans, making it tricky but necessary to do on occasion to keep alive.
scriptorum, first of all, thanks a lot for your comment. :)
I add some things that I had planned to such as the thunder and the double drop of gas today. I also changed the collision with the birds. You don't loose now.
About the end game screen with the score: yeah, I also thought about it and I will try to make it.
I updated the link. Check this out! :)
