The game features a charming aesthetic and creative mechanics, particularly the unique beak-based traversal that adds fun to the platforming experience.
It offers a lighthearted and enjoyable gameplay experience, with a relaxed difficulty curve and generous checkpoints that make it accessible for players of all ages.
The local co-op mode is a fantastic addition, allowing for fun couch co-op play, and the game is actively being developed with community feedback in mind.

Some levels feel empty and poorly laid out, lacking excitement and connection between stages, which can detract from the overall experience.
The story is minimal and lacks depth, leaving players with little context or direction throughout the game.
There are minor issues with controls and mechanics that could be better explained, and some players found the ending to be anti-climactic.
