Birds is a flash metroidvania style explore and jump-em up.

It’s not anywhere near finished and the demo is just a compelling (IMO) collection of cute animations and mechanics. A proof of concept. When it came time to make some levels and storyline I kind of froze up. I’m good at mechanics and ‘nifty’. I’m not so good at substance and content.
If I revisit birds it will be from scratch (the codebase is dead, as is flash), but I really want to one day. Maybe when I’m more prepared, breadth-of-skills-wise, or find someone dead-set on helping me with the story and level design.
