CawCaw by limered

[raw]
made by limered for Ludum Dare 59 (JAM)

crow-brown.png

Twelve crows I found, \ each one a whispered vow. \ My feet touched real ground, \ the only sound is caw.

crow-hooded.png

Their cry led me here, \ through streets I'd never seen. \ A sound too old for fear, \ a pull between the green.

Twelve names I keep, \ pressed still behind the glass. \ They followed me from sleep, \ like footprints in the grass.

Twelve crows, now mine - or am I somehow theirs?

I really like the idea! Unfortunately I'm not able to go walk 300m right now, but I'll try again later!

I got more invested than I expected to. Pretty nice getting an excuse to get out of the house after a game jam.

I already had a run this morning but this would have been a fun little side quest for a run, although I might have looked a bit erratic charging direction constantly to look for crows!

Awesome idea, great to get some steps in in between the other games hahah! Love the concept and the execution is great.

This was really fun and a nice refresh from how you generally expect to play a game. I liked the concept of finding the different birds as you go along to keep you playing and I was lucky to be able to enjoy the sun while doing it

Starting a timer on when someone will break into some church to catch a crow :)

Very cute idea and I don't think I've ever tried a mobile exclusive game before.

I can totally see myself playing this while out for a walk. Really great use of the theme!

I really like the idea of going actually outside to catch all the crows and the fact you added rare crows.
Graphics are beautifully made and the game is accessible via web, nice.
I tried to play it just by sound but it is hard to make out differences in a couple meters. i would've liked a different "caw" based on distance, not just pitch.

This game got me to step away from my computer and go on a walk, so that's a win! I think I really annoyed all the crows in my neighborhood though, lol.

Played it fo a bit while on a walk with my dog, pretty sure he got a bit annoyed with me, but I liked it and had a lot of fun, it's such a cool concept, first time I've seen a mobile exclusive game on this jam.
