Concept

You are a detective who is a bird. You need to find clues and talk to witnesses to find out who the thief you're searching for is. If you find enough clues about the suspect you might be able to arrest him in the end. The rest of the game is a platformer where the unique mechanic is the glide function which creates more depth to the platforming.

Background

This game was created in 6 days as part of "Pixel Game Jam 2023".I lost a lot of time due to things I had to do outside of game development but overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I wish I had more time to make the gameplay a bit more engaging and also add sound but overall it was a fun experience.

Seems my description didn't update but tileset was from "https://free-game-assets.itch.io/power-station-free-tileset-pixel-art" slightly modified and additional art (birds, cover, end screen and game over screens) self made.

That was really fun! I loved the art, mechanics, and the story that was going on. I played without sound so I can't make a comment on that. I caught the thief the first time but I was curious what would happen if I chose the wrong one, so I played it all over again. Great game!

Hooray Bird Detective! WE LOVE YOU.
