    Revenge of the Bird King is a little rough around the edges. Bright and ugly colors, sometimes complicated combat. Tough to acquire guns from gun trees. Feels almost like a good game, but it just has a lot of flaws in design and gameplay. I'd still much rather play this than other games.

    Revenge of the Bird King is a homage to classic NES games, notably the Mega Man games. The gameplay has the same artificial difficulty of games of old, and although I personally don't like that type of game, I won't lesser the review because of my personal preference. The game was going for a run-and-gun style platformer but ends up feeling like a puzzle solving one.

The game was going for a run-and-gun style platformer but ends up feeling like a puzzle solving one. A lot of the enemies require you to kill them in a certain way - this is because of your almost limitless ammo. This could be fine, however, the enemies feel tedious and annoying rather than like an actual challenge. The textures are a little bland - this was most likely to replicate the NES's style, but games like SMB3 look wonderful while this leaves a lot to be desired. Despite all of my issues, it is very clear that the developers put a lot of passion into this game and I hope they continue their game development journey.… Expand

    I really enjoy the art style and gameplay mechanics, but I wonder why the story is longer than my family's bloodline.

    Even with some forgettable aspects, Revenge of the Bird King gives a lot of bang for its buck. The retro style is, on the whole, well done, the music is great, and it is an overall enjoyable platforming experience.
