I think adding some extra controls could help, maybe something like I left click to form a tight ball and a right click to scatter."},{"author_name":"neondx","author_uid":"92909","time":"Apr 23, 2016 @ 2:04pm","epoch":1461419940,"text":"158 points! it was fun playing with the bird shapes, but the fact that you have less of less gives your main mechanic less power -&gt; more and more of them would be great as a reward for the player"},{"author_name":"Four Quarters","author_uid":"40789","time":"May 4, 2016 @ 4:41pm","epoch":1462379760,"text":"nice game!"},{"author_name":"A-Flat Miner Studios","author_uid":"42150","time":"May 4, 2016 @ 5:56pm","epoch":1462384260,"text":"Fun idea.

Wow wow!\r\nPlz use fullscreen.\r\nAnd plz be careful - music and sounds can be loud!\r\n\r\nYeah, i made it!.\r\n\r\nFlock - you are the leader of the group.\r\nLead your bird friends.\r\nGive them food (bugs).\r\nUse shelter (trees).\r\nAvoid hunters! (trees).\r\n\r\nAnd most important rule - STAY IN CIRCLE.\r\n\r\nHow long can you stay?\r\n... \r\n\r\nOk. Many of you may ask - \"Shape shift?\" ... Well for me when I see birds outside (ok. Not right now. It's the middle of the night) I feel impresive how the flock is changing. It's constant movement! So.. I decided to make game about it.\r\n\r\nBugs and issues I know about:\r\n* Performance.\r\n* Some strange movement glitching.\r\n* Performance.\r\n\r\nThings I'm proud of:\r\n* Music and sounds. Pure evil.\r\n* Flock algorithm.\r\n* Background.\r\n\r\nThings I'm not:\r\n* Flock algorithm, could be better\r\n* It's not juicy, I could add explosions, and blood and other very important stuff.\r\n* Performance - damn you javascript! (or my pour skills).\r\n\r\nSo.. Yeah... Good luck!.\r\n","title":"Flock!"}
