BirdDown

Falling sounds simple until you realize how many ways it can go wrong. BirdDown puts a small bird at the top of a vertical gauntlet, and the only direction is down — through platforms riddled with traps waiting to catch a careless drop.

The challenge isn't speed or reflexes in the traditional sense. It's reading each platform before committing, choosing where to land among the hazards scattered across your only path forward. One wrong angle and the run ends quietly, without drama.

There's a particular tension in controlling something that's supposed to fall freely. Gravity is constant, but the decisions aren't.
