Baby Bird Snatchers

Save the baby birds from the cruel hunters who are currently shooting birds while everyone else is encouraged to stay indoors. This is a trivial attempt at offering those against the murder of birds some form of virtual catharsis. Look out for future possible 'brutal' updates.  ;)

How to play: 

Up/ Down keys - Man move

Left/Right Keys - Woman move

Space - Start / Catch baby bird

Baby bird snatchers was originally an image based project created for a Masters degree module at the University of Malta, using Nintendo's classic Game & Watch platform. I decided to recreate it using the same assets on Game Maker Studio.

Game platform & sounds - taken from www.pica-pic.com / Donkey Kong. Please check out the Game&Watch repertoire on the site. They're amazing.
