Flip the Bird

Description

Flip the Bird™ is a fast paced game of obese avian acrobatics and explosive feathery follies. Fly as far as possible through the forest before running out of energy. Use the aid of favorable winds, other forest critters to catch a ride, or just bounce and careen off whatever you can to stay aloft. Replenish the energy used for every flap of your flight but watch out for the hard and pointy stuff as you dodge, bounce, flip, flap, fall, tumble, ride, and surf your way through the forest.

Features:

• Simple interface, quirky characters, great visuals and professional graphics.
• 4 unique "travel modes" to traverse the forest. Master them all or just use your favorite as long as you can catch a ride.
• Controls are easy to learn but challenging to master (E.G., tap to flap Flip, tilt to steer the crow, tap and hold to jump and glide with the squirrel, tilt to keep your balance on the turtle).
• Varied music depending on travel mode.
• Highly replayable. Every game is a different experience created using randomly balanced boosts and obstacles help and hinder your progress.
• Achievements and leaderboard tracking/sharing via Open Feint.

Plans for future Flip the Bird updates include:

• More achievements (and more bragging rights to go with it)
• More audio enhancements
• “Flight Lessons” an in-game tutorial
• HD graphics version of the game
• Incorporating your feedback and fixing any issues that we can address. Constructive feedback is always welcome.

Flip the Bird was created as a hard working, joint venture between Appsomniacs.com, CodeWorx Studios, and Mulch Media. We hope you enjoy our game as much as we did in creating it.

Background Story:

There comes a time when every bird has to the leave the nest. It's inevitable... There is a right time, but Flip is a bit of an enigma to his belabored parents and they need some help. We’re sure Flip's condition is due to gland issues and not overeating (well maybe it is overeating), but when he crosses the line his parents have had enough. It is time for him to go! That is where your journey with Flip begins...
