That was my last egg by dq_201

you know what does egg means to a bird , especially for an abandoned one . A journey of a bird with physiological defect and an egg that didn't talk so much . Use your wisdom to overcome natural defects.

about how to play: you need to carry the egg to the end, but if you pick up the egg,you cant jump high,so you need to throw it(throw angle depended on your mouse position) in the air and jump,then pick up.(you lose when your egg crash into the ground or wall)

I REALLY liked the mechanics! well done! Too hard for me though, I'm stuck at the first checkpoint xD

Not sure how to play? It looks like it could be fun, but after I pick up the egg I can't jump, and if I throw the egg away as soon as it lands the level restarts.

Sprites so adorable :x And the mechanics have a good feel for a game made in only 48hours, good job, my only complaint is that the sounds are very high pitched..

I like the mechanics. It's fun to start to get good at "juggling" the egg by throwing and then quickly running. I got stuck at one of the yellow walls, but I spent a while playing with the mechanics to get better.

A cool game! I had a lot of fun with it.

Wow ok once figuring out how to play i loved it. Great concept of game mechanics. for those who struggling, you have to throw the egg in the air and catch (At least this is how i played it xD... hope it was the right way). And i love the description xD " a bird with physiological defect"

Same as others. At the begining is hard to understand how to play. It took me a while to realize that the eggs is thrown in the direction my mouse is. The game is really fun, the mechanic is great. I believe it could make for some good puzzles. I would change UI and how the controls are explained to the user, and add some background calm music. Good job!

I don't understand how to play the game. After you die, then you wake up in the first place with egg in your mouth, you can throw the egg, but if the egg goes down to the land, you die too and respawn in the checkpoint with egg in your mouth.. Please explain the game.. :smile:

I like the sound effect, the character graphic is so cute.. Really want to play it though..

Good game!

I made it to the end. Extremely addicting! I kept saying "just one more" to myself and the final section was extremely difficult but with the end in sight I just couldn't give up.
Great use of checkpoints. Interesting mechanics! It's hard at first but mastering it feels very satisfying. Love the art. Great job!

The sprites are so cute. The game is too hard for me though. It's a good game :)

I like the mechanics of managing the egg while also trying to do regular platforming challenges. The egg was a bit unpredictable and could use some adjustments, maybe an aiming guide like when you throwing eggs in Yoshi's Island. It also wasn't clear that I could charge the throw. Went much smoother when I figured that out!

Cool game. It's a bit hard tho. In a future update, could you make it so that you automatically pick up the egg? Without pressing E?

I like the idea :) but Im stuck at the first checkpoint... its quite hard to catch back the egg pressing E.

Cool game! Nice theme and graphics. It becomes difficult however (but you've already noted that). Pretty fun!

The mechanics are really cool.
It was really challenging, especially later in the game.
It would've been nice seeing how far i throw the Egg...
