Death comes in all forms.
\nFor billions of birds every year, death comes in the form of…windows.
\nCollisions with unseen windows result in billions of bird deaths annually and countless more injuries world wide!
\nIn UNSEEN, play as a bird trying to avoid windows, collecting money, and surviving as long as possible.
\nSpend your money to buy upgrades, making it easier to survive and collect even more money!
\nSpacebar, Left Mouse, or Touch moves the bird up. Release for the bird to go down.
\nCoil subscribers start with some money, have have extra items in the shop!

Controls are simple but good.

Felt a lot like flappy bird. After a few minutes of play I had every upgrade and had exhausted the gameplay. A PSA on the game description was the only reference to the theme, otherwise “dying” in the game was the only reference to “death”.
\nPlays well on mobile too, but the two side upgrades (neck brace and sabotage glass supply) aren’t visible.

The shop is a nice addition, although i wish I could buy the same items again (perhaps at extra cost), as well as items that let me play faster after upgrading my bird. It would give the game more progression potential.\nGreat animations and sounds, and responsive controls.

For instance, add dashing mechanic, power ups… something that would incentivize me to go for a second run.\nThe graphics work but the game could be elevated by adding a few details, like a parallax background, or different types of obstacles.\nSound works surprisingly well for me.
\nI also feel like there’s a bit of a missed opportunity with the theme. A group of crows is called a “murder”, and with the theme being “death”, this had more potential.

I like the concept but the gameplay is all too familiar in a flappy bird style. The shop aspect is nice and adds a bit of longevity. Not sure why the bird is collecting money rather than something bird related.

Web monetization is just making the game easy and does not provide anything for player to commeorate the moment…

\nThe bird animation and sounds are spot on.
\nNice touch to add the shop, give a reason to keep playing.

I think you should implement some mechanism to prevent this.

Though the visuals are simple, the animation is quite good and the sound effects do a good job conveying what they represent. The progression system is also a really good way to keep one motivated to try for even higher scores.

What I’m missing is some kind of info about Coil bonus for non-Subscribers. As a non-Subscriber I really would like to know I can support the game and get some extra stuff in exchange.
