Learning the movement was really fun, but I was a bit lost on where I was supposed to be going. The music and the simple art had a pretty relaxing mood to it, despite the difficulty of the game. Well done!

Really cool game. The bird animation and controls (once mastered) make it so satisfying to watch!

surprisingly fun after only a few seconds getting used to the controls. really nice music and I like the bird animation! also level design is well done to take advantage of the curving movement. it's satisfying to soar around a bend and also to keep a forward momentum going by keeping the back and forth sweeping rhythm. checkpoint system is excellent too

This game is simple but surprisingly addictive. The visuals are simple but still captivating. Well done!

Really good theme interpretation. Gameplay is fun, but very small checkpoints, i wish checkpoints made with lines. Great job anyway!

Always love seeing something made from scratch like this - makes a nice change from the slew of Unity games I've seen so far! The minimalist art is pretty nice too.

It's challenging but fun. Takes a while to figure out but it's worth it.

Wow this is crazy. The movement is very hard at first, but the game does a good idea of teaching you making the passages tighter and tighter. I got to the dash ability, got through a few more rooms, but then stuff started to look the same. I think I took a wrong turn somewhere! I never beat it, but I still had a lot of fun playing. Great game!

Such a nice little game! Really hard to control but you end up getting the hang of it. Cool music too! Sorry again I was unable to play it on stream.
