Love the concept. The feeling of swooping down and chomping things is great. Had a few wonderful divebombs. That king is a jerk, very satisfying to chomp him.

Was fun but pretty easy. Still had a lot of fun just wish it was more difficult!

I don't quite know why, but the simplicity of this was really good, and it was really fun!

that difficulty spike at the end was, uhm, kingly.

overall the game reminds me of luftrausers. and like if you got to play as those dog missiles from super meat boy. (both of those are good things)

Very nice controls, though it would've been nice to have some music. Nicely done!

Simple but I love it. The controls are smooth and the artwork is good, but I'm also a fan of pixel art. Only thing missing is a soundtrack.

Great little game! I've never had more fun devouring farmers. The king was delicious. Nice work!

Cool game ! Simple and efficient... I was a bit hungry for more at game over, because difficulty progress was well leveled but it remained quite easy, i think.
Controls are simple, which is great, yet i found it original and pleasant to handle (not shooting, but eating enemies). Spiro's darkside...
Good job!

so much fun to play! awesome work. i think the firts levels should have enemies to. for a few seconds i was flying around a eating things like a mad man thinking i was invincible.
GJ!

Really fun! Sadly it's not particularly challenging until the battle against the King.
It's definitely missing music, but since it's a Compo entry I think it's more than impressive as it is. Loved the art btw!

It controlled really nicely and eating the enemies was fun. Only thing is I would have liked to have a penalty for hitting the ground -- the game was slightly too easy for me.

Sorry to report the page does not load for me. I see a black screen, and no errors in the developer console either.

This was a lot of fun. I wasn't sure if the axe guys were supposed to damage you? I flew straight into their weapons and didn't seem to take damage.
I like that the end boss was difficult until you realized he just required the opposite strategy from all the other enemies. This would be fun expanded into a full game with more difficulty.

It's fun, but i think the dragon must lose life if crush to wall or floor. But great game, my son love it!

Best innovation imo, at least I haven't played a game like this before! Really simple, but really awesome feeling when you glide at the perfect height to snatch a person. Amazing job!
