Swooping Birds

Swoop to collect. But some swoops bite back. Swooping Birds is a side-scrolling vertical flyer where your bird climbs from the treetops to outer space — and everything you grab weighs you down. Feast, fight, and shed your load to stay airborne. One wrong dive and you're on the ground. Weight is the whole game This isn't a flat power-up meter. Every collectible has real weight. Load up on gear and food and your bird gets sluggish, sinks, and finally can't hold altitude at all. Lean flies high; heavy flies low. Choose what's worth carrying — and what to drop. Feast, then burn it off Food heals you… at first. Keep eating and your bird gets fatter, bloated, and harder to fly. But flying and fighting burn it back off — a natural feast-and-slim loop where your bird's body IS the status bar. No clutter, just a bird visibly getting stronger, rounder, and leaner as you play. Three ways to fly • RISE — hold to climb, if your load lets you • GLIDE — release for a gentle drift onto pickups • DIVE — commit to a plunge… but a heavy bird can't always pull up in time Gear up and fight back Collect armor, weapons, and speed and your bird morphs to show it — helmets, blades, and more layer right onto its body. Fight-back is automatic on contact, so telegraphed threats become split-second reads: dodge, tank the hit, or crash through it. Drop it to survive Overloaded and sinking toward the crash floor? Drop an item for instant lift — or hit the panic button and jettison everything at once. You'll survive stripped of your gear, and whatever you dropped just might land on the spider below. Ground to space Climb through undulating terrain, up past the clouds, and into the stars. Collectibles wait at every altitude — the higher you dare to fly, the better the haul.
