As an elf shaman, befriend birds by feeding them in this Game Boy-styled game (featuring the four colors of Avocado Vision).

Controls

  • Movement: 
    • WASD keys
  • Action Keys: 
    • O: Throw Seed
    • P: Coo (Attract Bird to a Seed Mat) / Shoo Hungry Hawk

Gameplay

  • Walk up to a seed mat and press P to attract a bird.
  • Press O to throw seeds on the mat. Throw seeds multiple times to form a pile.
  • If a bird is eating, it is happy. If it isn't, it is upset.
  • When a bird eats enough, it becomes your friend and flies off.
  • If a bird becomes annoyed, it becomes your enemy and backs away.
  • Befriend 6 birds within 60 seconds to win a level. Make enemies of 3 birds or run out of time to lose a level.
  • If all four seed mats are occupied, a Hungry Hawk will swoop down and take a bird (counts as a bird enemy).
  • Walk to the top of the screen and press P to shoo the hawk away.
  • Don't slip on bird poop.
  • Complete all levels to unlock a Free Play mode where you can befriend unlimited birds without fear of failure.

Bird Types

Different birds have different requirements to befriend them.

  • Typical Pigeon - Baseline bird type. Feed enough to befriend.
  • Bashful Penguin - Doesn't eat while you are looking at it.
  • Egotist Toucan - Only eats when you are looking at it.
  • A-Hole Owl - When upset, owls will eat another bird's seed before leaving.
  • Finicky Flamingo - Only eats when it's seed pile is at maximum.
  • Diminutive Finch - Requires little seed to befriend. Do NOT overfeed.
  • Rascally Raccoon - Not a bird. Don't feed, and it will leave (does not count as an enemy).

Notes

I tried making an HTML5 engine from scratch. It worked kind of? There is a mobile-touch version included in the script, but it doesn't work embedded.
