If you see feathers, it’s a bird. If you don’t see feathers, run.

Lowk my creativity juice running out so who wanna be a skin in my game (or “suit”)

_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/announcement-makecode-arcade-mini-game-jam-36-bird-jam/44801/58))_

Please acknowledge that I am not @luke or Mr. Vincent Van Goh, so it might turn out looking like an 8-bit Pablo Picasso drawing. Also I can probably only take the first 3 people so vote early!
