Hi! Here is our Bird Jam submission:

> **[Bird Jam 1.0](https://arcade.makecode.com/S82566-27556-74530-86705)**
>
> A bird action gme for the Bird Jam!
> Press B to flap and fly, but flying uses energy. :P
> Press Menu to open inventory...
> Good luck!

This is a bird action game. Press B to flap, use attacks to defeat enemies, and collect elemental items. Open the menu to use the items and activate different skills.

The bird levels up by defeating enemies. Defeated enemies respawn and become stronger.

Thanks for playing!

Nope. Only full game jams get posts on the MakeCode home page.

A little pigeon told me you can get these submissions in just before stream…  
…So here’s a silly little pigeon game inspired by ‘Pigeonetics’!

If you could play mine later/last, I might be late 🙂
