Bird game Battle Royale Devlog #1

Welcome to the first ever Bird Game Battle Royale update!

To catch you up on some things, in the past few weeks I’ve added 3 birds to start off as player 1 and player 2. These include the hummingbird, the dove, and the woodpecker. And here’s a quick debrief on what they do!

hummingbird

Ability 1: Nectar dash. Dash forward dealing damage to anything in your way.

Ability 2: Transpollentation: Teleport to a random spot in the map. 2 second cooldown.

Dove

Ability 1: Love Ray. Press A to launch many hearts in the direction you’re facing, but you must be moving to activate it.

Ability 2: Basic Healing. Heal a random amount from 12-45 HP. Cooldown 5 seconds.

Woodpecker

Ability 1: Doordash. Go into the trees on the side of the screen (left if you’re player 1, right if you’re player 2) and wait around half a second to launch the woodpecker uncontrollably from one side of the screen to another! Deals 50 damage.

Ability 2: Skydance. Once your Misc bar is filled up, press A to activate the Skydance. The woodpecker will fly across the screen rapidly while dealing fatal damage to those in its way. Once the rampage is over, you are glued to the center of the screen to get bombarded. Cooldown 20 seconds.

So, that’s basically all of the birds that I added. You can find their toggled in the On Start function (if you can find it). Another thing I added were the already mentioned trees on both sides of the screen. I added this because I thought the screen was mostly empty and also gives some advantages and disadvantages depending on which bird you are.

If you’re a hummingbird and use the Nectar Dash on the trees, you will be launched in the opposite direction for around half a second. This is handy when you’re cornered by a bird and need to bounce back at them with full force!

If you’re a dove near these trees, it’s pretty useless as it just bounces you back. Same as the woodpecker.

I also added a basic cloud generator with variable speeds! But that’s pretty minor.

So, that’s it for the first Devlog. Catch you in the next one!

I Love it! Question, what do the falling sand bags do? Also the art is great! The second bird is my favorite.

WOW this adds a lot!! The new dove is so cute, and the love ray is so silly :laughing:
Maybe in the next update you could add a selection menu, so you could change between birds and learn what they do from inside the game!

Thank you for the compliment! The falling sandbags in the game are supposed to be seed bags, I should probably change the texture to that lol. I’m so glad you got the reference!
