Yay for shooting crows! Die crows! Loved that part. Wish the targeting reticule was brighter and didn't blend as much into the trees.

The 3D panning is witchcraft! Nicely done. I think I bought the nuke without having the money for it, but you won't here me complaining.

Liked it, felt like I had everything under control and then I suffered a massive murder of crows and lost in a minute. Good time.

Fun game! Nice looking crows, I died though, have to try it more later, feel the need for that nuke! :-) good job!

Good entry and very slick 3D feeling. I found out that I suck at it though, had a hard time completing level 2. A little minimap/radar thingie would have helped so you know how many birds are incoming :) Also I felt a bit uneasy with the super sensitive panning, but that might just be me and lacking skills with FPS in general. And another + for doing it in C++ and publishing on the web 8)

That was fun! Only criticism that comes to mind is the crosshair should have a little more contrast. It's easy to lose sight of it when you pan through the trees.

that was great - loved it when the crows started wearing helmets - brilliant!

Really fun game! The upgrade system is very well done, and the controls are extremely responsive.
It is a shame that the crosshair is black, so I had no clue where I was aiming.

It's a nice game. The upgrades and the different crow types really save it from getting repetitive.

That was fun! My favorite moments were when I was heavily focused in one direction and then I turn to the other direction to see like a hundred crows!! Upgrades all felt meaningful, and it was extremely satisfying to nuke them crows!

Found this game on the LD mosaic and it's pretty cool. Game feel's nice, drawings are lovely. Could use some more variety. And music! :D
Good job!

Not bad. I liked the call back to Duck Hunt! Would've been nice with sound though, ah well. Still, nice!

Very nice game! Looking around feels really nice.
Got to level 5 easily, but then just got eaten...

Fun entry and liked that the crows came from different angles. The turning was also nice and smooth. Just wish I had a map to guide me of where they were all building up from.

Hi, I loved this game!
I reached level 9 before I got overwhelmed. I didn't use my shotgun enough but I'm sure I could have gotten even further. I will be uploading a YouTube video, if you don't mind!

Great game! Controls nicely, and I like the 3d view. Got pretty hard, even with the nuke. Good stuff

Perfect name for the game. I shouted "Aaaaaaah Crows" several times while playing! Fun too.
