I'm sad you couldn't finish the game because it's really chill and beautiful game. You managed to make flying with all the details on the ground is a really cool feeling.

White UI was a bit hard to read too but it's the kind of game where you want it to be as discreet as possible. Maybe having absolutely no UI and just having some kind of button to display some king of sensor toward southwest would have made more sense or using the shadow of other geese groups appearing some time.  Displaying some kind of text when you have not enough geese to unlock the next biome could work too.

Nice work, I hope you'll finish it !

Taking off and landing might need a little bit of work, it took me a few tries to get the goose off the ground and then it was flopping around like a fish in the final landing zone.  Enjoyed my time with it though, it was nice and relaxing to soar around looking for geese and seeing the little cars drive around the farmland dioramas way down below.  The UI was also hard to read against the snow and grass.

Cool concept!

If you tap space and hold w sometimes the goose gets stuck when you try to take off from the beginning

I found another goose and then get stuck inside a mountain

A reset button would be nice in the future (or adjust position) if you get stuck

mirroring what a lot of people are saying here  about the look and uniqueness of the game, definitely is tricky to teach the game when its doing something unusual like the controls and concept. but very cool idea still. I think I spent 30 minutes trying to get through this gap in the rocks, but I guess you can't so I'm not sure what to do next.  I think landing soft locks me where i just spin. so I think this is unfortunately as far as I can get. would love to know what I'm missing! cool idea for sure

I really liked this game's vibe, but the controls were a little wonky, and the collisions sent my bird spinning. I really love the idea of a bird migration game. Keep working on it!

Such a cool look this one has! There's so many bird games this time haha, this was very relaxing and cozy to play, great job everyone involved!

We have just republished a fix. Two geese have to be found in the first landscape to go through the clouds then.

I like the graphics and concept, definitely a great fit for the jam's theme, but the text wouldn't load for me (I had a similar issue until I changed how I was uploading my fonts so it packaged cleaner),  and the white HUD was nearly invisible when against the snow.  All in all I love the concept and the audio was very well matched to the visuals and theme. Great job!

Beautiful atmosphere, great vibes, graphics, and music. I kept getting turned-around at the clouds, then like Annikat i tumbled into a mountain. Really nice though! We did a bird migration game too!

Developer

Use shift+0 cheat mode to get an extra goose, and then go through the gray clouds.

Oh no, I immediately seemingly got stuck upon starting... the graphics and concept look really cute and the music is pretty so I want to play... any tips?

Update: tried again and got off the ground but then clipped into a mountain. The ambience is great though! Might be partially a skill issue on my part ;P

Developer

Collision against the mountain are hard to manage. Avoid the mountains, and try to go across the clouds.

Thank you for your feedback.

A fix was uploaded, so you may collect two geese in the sky before going through clouds. Take care of the mountains. It is a narrow way.
