Nice!!! It was a bit difficult to see how far away the acorns were though. I never was able to get the one at the end of the diving board :cry:

Great game!
Nice game! I like how it's actually possible to win on the first time. It would be nice if there was a way to restart the game.
Ha, you used emscripten on your game too! :) It took a bit to figure out what was going on, but after that it was kinda cool.
Nice game. Sometimes when trying to place a tower I would click on the tower placing button, and I would spend the money without it actually placing a tower. Is this repairing buildings? I managed to last for almost 17 minutes.
Nice game! I might suggest randomizing the meteors a bit more. It seemed to me that they came in the same pattern every game.
Nice game! Took a bit to get the hang of, but I managed to survive 4 minutes.
@lyghtningwither I'll try, but I don't really know much about Windows, so it probably won't work. I was able to compile the game with Emscripten, so you can play it in a web browser. I included a link to the output. Unzip it, the open a command prompt and do ``` cd Downloads/bluebird-web python -m http.server 8000 ``` Then open a web browser and in the search bar type `localhost:8000`.
I wasn't able to get the text working for it so I'll write it here: There are two green bars on the bottom of the screen. You may need to scroll down a bit to see them. The top one indicates how hungry your chick is. If this gets to low your chicks starve and you lose. The bottom one indicates how big your chick is. Once this is full, the game is over and you win. press the space bar to start over. If you bump into a hawk you also lose.
The other option is to compile from source.
@theomlet Yeah, it really needs that. I was thinking of adding some obstacles and making the hawks only able to turn in wide angles, so you can 'hide' between trees and make the hawk fly right past you. I also only play the online games; it seems like the few that aren't web hosted are only available for Windows. :wink: My dad does have an all-purpose website, but it's not working just now. So if it starts working anytime soon I'll definitely host it there. I could use a game hosting site, but I don't think the game's really worth it.
@meelo I'm glad you liked it. :) Thanks for the offer! I just uploaded a new web file and that fixed the non-rendering text (or rather worked around it by pre-making images of text and rendering those), so if you would host that and send me the URL I'd gratefully add the link.
@capital-asterisk Yeah, on second thought it probably isn't such a great idea to try reinstalling libc. I compiled it on Ubuntu 19.10; not sure it that has anything to do with it.
Oops...I guess I forgot to mention that. I guess I said it in the source code readme and didn't think to do so here.
You can find lib2d.h at https://lib2d.com. Just clone lib2d into bluebird's root directory and the cmake file should find it.
