A good twist of the flappy bird sub-genre. Congratulations!

Interesting concept, similar to flappy bird, but with some special touches.

as said in previous comments, similar to flappy bird, but I think I got frustrated even more. Really cute graphics!

Ha! This is great. The switch mechanic really adds fun reflex twister. I kept getting tripped up over two simple buttons. But I never got frustrated. Great job!

A nice twist on the flappy-bird formula. I liked how you had to determine when to jump as well as when to shapeshift to the different sized hitbox.

I wasn't a big fan of not having any control over the height of my jump, I think it would be nicer to be able to jump higher depending on how long I hold down the jump button.

Graphics were lacking a bit, but communicated the mechanics well. Good use of the theme.

Well done!

Thanks for trying our game out and the heads up! Sorry about the white squares, we've exported the same version but with an installer that should run better (give it another try hint hint). Otherwise, I'm team duck all the way! -t

Really neat game! I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/KyB-5ZqWXwk

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

Good game. The graphics worked, but your speed should ramp up as you progress, often we found ourselves jumping too early or too late, there's definitely a sweet spot between falling like a rock onto the poles and jumping into them too late.

About as hard as Flappy Bird. Still a well built game.

Cute game! I disagree that a cow can jump higher than a duck but that's just details ;)
