A Quacktadtic Adventure

While all your friends went to feast on the beach, you remained stuck in the stinky old Pink City. Unable to fly after being stroke by lightning, you chose the less painful option: ending it all... But as you commit the irreparable, a Gnome appears from the void and makes you live forever! The only choice left to bear this life of yours now: to seek the Golden Feather in the hope of maybe one day, flying towards your dream!

Flap, Bounce, Cry

Your only means of movement? Hopping like a chicken and bouncing like a rubber ball! Uncover the depth of these mechanics, ridiculously easy-to-learn but so hard-to-master. Only blood, sweat and tears, will take you through the 72 handcrafted stages with an ever-growing difficulty! Not tired yet? Try getting all the eggs, and beat the best time for each level.

Hop in the absurd journey ahead, and flap your way through Hell and Heaven to fullfill your dream of becoming a real Duck!

A must-have for completionists if you like to cry and suffer ahahaha. I loved the demo and it took me just over 6 hours to finish it at 100% (all eggs). Cheer up and have fun!
