I love this game. The art style is cute and distinct. The sound effects are fun, and given the limited time you did an awesome job exploring the different consequences of the puzzle mechanic. I also love the interpretation of the theme! Burning down huge chunks of forest is super satisfying so I'd love to see a score at the end of each level based on how many trees you burned down to encourage players to do so. Excellent job 5 stars
Wow, that is a crazy polished game, well done
Thank you everyone for your very kind feedback! This was our first jam (and first game) ever. We were very rushed to finished it and published it in a very buggy state. Nevertheless we're still very happy with how it turned out and are continuing to work on it. If anyone wants to play a less buggy version that runs in browser you can do that here: https://clivethebird.itch.io/clives-flight
We will continue to update the project on that page

Thank you for your kind reviews :)
You need to hover near cherries for a while before you collect them
They should wiggle when you are close enough :)
Love this game! It reminds me of old school flash games. You could say you're keeping them alive since flash is dying this year. I love how there are no visible meters for Mr Fluff's wellbeing, getting to know his needs from the way he looks/moves makes me feel so attached!
eh its alright
great game ! it looks and sounds awesome and was satisfying to complete :)
The graphics were cute and it looks super polished ! unfortunately it might be bugged :( there are way too many bonobos and I die pretty quick :(
This is my favourite game in the jam so far ! A really unique idea that's very fun to play. It felt so polished as well, I love all the themes and the music. Well done :D
Great game ! the art is fantastic and I really liked the idea. Only suggestion is to randomly vary the pitch of the sound effects by a small amount each time they are played. It can sound a little odd hearing the exact same sound over and over. Good job !!
I really like this game :D its fast paced and exciting and the music is great. My only frustration is when the AI pushes me into a corner and I get stuck :( great job !
Adorable game, I always died due to lack of heat because sticks are the hardest to collect. The art is super cute
@math1369 Thanks for your review ! Our initial idea was actually reverse angry birds haha
@cad Thanks for your review ! The hit detection code was soooo buggy for most of the development so I'm glad you noticed it :D
Very funny and cute :) also super polished, I loved the little details like icons for the button press prompts and stuff. There was a weird bug I experienced where Josepi stood up on his hind legs like he was pretending to be human lmao. The dialogue was great and I would love to play Josepi again :D
This is such a cool game ! with a unique take on the theme and unique mechanics. Some of my favourite art so far this jam
Cool game ! I really like the controls, and the game has a very peaceful atmosphere. Unfortunately the results won't show up on the leaderboard for me but my high score was around 4000 :) My only complaint is that the camera kind of clips through the player model causing you to see little segments of it in the first person view. Other than that excellent job ! A really cool take on the theme. I'm especially impressed that you managed a start/end screen and a leaderboard in a jam game.

The upgrade system is quite cool, one suggestion would be to telegraph where the enemies are going to come through just before they do, so you don't die unexpectedly. The music and art are awesome :D
Cool game ! The art is super cute and its a cool take on the theme. I agree with the others that the tree growth could be a bit clearer visually. Well done, feels very polished :D
This is an amazing game ! especially for only 1 developer. The heroes have so much character, you did a great job making them all feel unique. P.S. the art is awesome
