If they wanted a good review, they shouldn’t have broken their own game.
This game wasn’t bad. At first. It’s lighthearted, silly, and makes you feel somewhat strategic. After that, it all dies. I bought this game a while ago on a different account. Back then, you clicked the bird and dragged the bird. That worked. The scheme where you don’t even have to click is alright if you enjoy wasting birds to backfires. Second, the physics is wrong. Sure, the birds follow some kind of arc that fits with the standard idea of how a projectile works. However, the birds are given too much mass for their size, and the force of gravity is 2 m/s^2, resulting in a game that is at bbest infuriating to anybody with a basic knowledge of physics. Finally, there is the difficulty. No matter how hard the level is supposed to be, the format of the game makes it always fairly easy to figure out which spots to aim the birds at to win. In fact, the only skill required is patience to waste shot after shot on near misses. So, this game gets 1 star on 3 counts: Terrible controls, terrible physics, and badly judged difficulty
