Took a few seconds to get the hang of it but I think this is a pretty fun mechanic. I actually lol'd so I think that's a good sign. I think a more clear barrier of where you need to be to get kicked out would be good.

Don't be fooled by the graphics, this is not a very good game. But hey, it fits the rules.\r\n\r\nYou control a parrot. You need to push the other parrot out of (or onto) the ring using your microphone (or your mouse, if you don't have a microphone).\r\n\r\nRepeatedly hit Space to keep your parrot aloft, and use either A\/D or Left\/Right to move. Your voice power (the rings coming out of the parrots) are controlled with either your microphone volume or, if Unity doesn't detect one, the left mouse button.\r\n\r\nThe smoke rings on the title screen are also controlled with your mic. Use that to calibrate your microphone setup.\r\n\r\nThere's 3 difficulty settings, voice acting by a synthesized Queen Elizabeth (love you, Liz :3) and little else.\r\n\r\nNOTE: The game needs your permission to use your microphone. A popup asking for it will show up when you begin the game. If you see a black and blue screen on the web version, try the standalone version.\r\n\r\nPROTIP: You can also ram your body into the opponent if you're desperate. Try closing in from above or below so the noise won't push you away.","title":"BoomBurst"}
