My sprites use the Eroge Copper palette by Arne Niklas Jansson and the hawk's scream is a slight edit of free red shouldered hawk audio by rjalker.itch.io

Took me a while to actually understand but this was cleverly made! I wish there were better explanations of what each item does though. The movement was unlike anything I've ever seen, I really felt like a hawk :0 (a hawk that died a looooot of time lol)

I was really bad at the start, but I slowly understood what to do. Good work on the concept!

Took a second to get used too, but it starts to click and is really nice! A very different way to engage with the game. The colors are a little issue cuz the eagle and snake blend into the background easily, but again that's only a slight issue and the gameplay is still solid!

Quite tricky at first, but I killed that snake twice! They call me Master-Eagle 5000.

A bit hard but very fun!

The controls are a bit hard to get used to, but overall a fun game!

The controls were a little hard for me and the snake too me a minute to see. 

Still, its a cool idea! Good job :D

the death screen is so funny. Hard to learn but easy to master game. I got the first item, afterwards it got kind of buggy? I defeated the boss multiple times but didnt get anything else besides the first item

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. You are guaranteed an item drop the first time you beat the boss. Afterwards it is random.

I'm thinking that I should have made this more clear within the game or even require more difficult challenges to unlock all items to increase the replayability

A bit of a weird game in that it's impossible at first and easy after 5 minutes or so.

A nice game concept! It took me a while to notice the snake was on the ground, though I assume it's on purpose, like in a camouflage way? I enjoyed the simple gameplay, but it does get repetitive after a while since I don't think the difficulty scales. I also wanna add that the art is also pretty nice in the game.

I've only gotten one item while playing, not sure how to get the other ones yet.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. The snake being hard to see was initially a coincidence, but I decided to keep it for the camouflage hahaha

For anyone wondering how to unlock all items: Whether you get an item and which one you get is random after each time killing the snake. some items are more rare than others
