Made for GBJAM 8. Inspired by Balloon Fight, especially Balloon Trip - even if I realised (clearly) that the controls were more like Flappy Bird... This jam was fun, and gave me a reason to release something!

I wanted to make a game that felt like one you'd play on a taxi or bus ride on the Game Boy, so nothing too complex. I actually never had a pure Game Boy - my first console was a Game Boy Color - but even so, I hope you enjoy this attempt to prod at nostalgia. (I am aware the score font alias-es a little, and I could not figure out how to fix it. My apologies.)

Loved the music, and really appreciated the simplicity of the controls. If you were gunna keep working on it I'd say maybe create more unique enemy types. But great job!

Too few enemies, and they move too fast to respond with the flappy bird controls. This creates weird difficulty spikes. Also, the bird chirps hurt my ears, I would go with a different sound effect. Cool soundtrack though, and I like the idea of a flappy bird bullet-hell shooter.  Just needs a bit more polish.
