Swoop
A late (too late) entry for the https://itch.io/jam/goms-flappy-jam/entries
Get the flappy bird experience while soaring high above the ocean looking for fish to swoop down on and eat. Feel like a break? Take a load off and sunbathe while floating in the ocean, but don't stay too long - something big lurks beneath.
I've tried to keep the controls somewhat the same as flappy bird with the addition of being able to change direction with the arrow keys.
- Tap space to flap your wings and increase your altitude.
- Release space to glide.
- Hold space to dive into the water and attempt to catch fish.
- Arrow keys allow you to change direction.
A little note on the UI:
- Top left:
- The clock is how long you've survived this go.
- The weight is the biggest fish you've caught this go.
- Top right:
- The amount of energy you have remaining.
- Bottom right are audio and full screen toggles.

Hi, i like to art, sound and general idea. but i struggle with the controls. having trouble to go left and right, and that space is used for flapping/flying AND ALSO for diving made problems for me.
other than that cool game
Hi! Thank you for the feedback. I tried to keep the controls close to the original flappy bird for the game jam which does means you don't directly control sideways movement but have to rely on gliding which does take a little getting used to.
As for the dual use of space for flapping and diving someone else also mentioned they had issues with this also and suggested a long hold time for the dive would be better which I completely agree with.
Thank you again for the feedback it's much appreciated.
