Snack on the fly by pandavigoureux
You control a shark !
Jump out of the water to eat birds and refill your stomach. But be aware of the ships that sail the sea !
Play with mouse only, on browers and mobile devices.
Controls:
Use the yellow handle under the shark to adjust its direction and jump strength, then release.
Once you're in the air, click/tap once to take a bite (hopefully not of void).
Destroy the ships from above.
Try to get the best score before your hunger kills you!

Fun game, good work...!
Other than that the game its fun.
Some of the stuff could do with a bit more design but such is a 48 hour jam :)
but somehow I did not manage to kill boats (I just thumbed on the deck from above) but hey, I ate many birds!
I hope eating some birds makes up for all the sharks I blew up while making my game ;)
But I didn't really get when the game is over. Sometimes it lasts longer sometimes it's very short.
I wasn't so happy with the yellow-dot controls reactions when I got out of the game-area (which happened a lot since the dot was close to the edge). There could have been a springy-feeling to the dot so it stopped going further away from shark when it reach the maxSharkJump amount.
It took me a while to realize it really wasn't a game about eating birds but eating boats -- point-wise too.
One way I think the game could improve a bit is if the shark would start its next jump from where it landed. That way, how you handle the boats becomes a bit different. You could simply have the shark wrap around the world on the x-axis. And on that matter, it was a bit frustrating to have the shark go out of screen and would have been nice to have the camera track the shark as it flew high up.
Finally, I didn't understand or see any meter for the number of jumps left. A nice way to show that could have been to have the sun set a little every jump made (or go by play-time).
(And btw, I like lengthy comments)
Had some problems with the controls, as I kept moving my mouse out of the window when trying to launch the shark.
