What the Judges are Saying

I was thoroughly impressed with your creative adaptation of Flappy Bird! Your innovative approach to combining a popular game mechanic with an important environmental message about deforestation is both clever and impactful.

The backstory you have created of a bird searching for its family after losing its home to deforestation adds a powerful emotional dimension to what would otherwise be just another arcade game. This narrative transforms each playthrough into a meaningful journey that helps players understand the real-world consequences of habitat destruction on wildlife.

The game's simple, intuitive design makes it accessible while maintaining its addictive "just one more try" quality. I found myself constantly wanting to improve my score, and each attempt reminded me of the underlying environmental message. Great work on creating an entertaining game that also educates and raises awareness about an important environmental issue!
This project is a fantastic use of a game to remind users of critical environmental issues like deforestation and the impact they have on our world. The story and the gameplay nicely connect to the real-world problem in a very creative way. I would love to see how the story progresses in future levels, especially if it helps people understand what they can do to help stop deforestation. An impressive and well-executed project!
