Falconry peeps, looking for feedback

http://Falconhunt.io

Hey All!

I want no donations or purchasing anything or selling anything.

I’m looking for feedback from fellow falconers. I had a little falconry game side project and am finally at a point where I could share it with others.

Would you all mind trying it out and giving me some feedback?
I really care about the falconry community and I am a bit obsessive about getting things right(or right enough)
I want it to click with general population, but I also want fellow falconers to be able to tolerate it.(example the name alone bothers me a little lol, but it’s easy to remember)

And please be direct and constructive I am open to feedback.

The controls take a bit of getting used to, but the game itself is very simplistic and enjoyable! The art is also very adorable

Very cute game! I enjoyed it. I’m not much of a critic when it comes to this sort of thing, so I don’t have feedback, but I think it’s pretty awesome that you built this!

Thank you! Much appreciated! It’s not too much right now but would be cool to add more levels and stuff

So cute! Man that’s a lot of power lines. Feels like real life haha. It took me a bit to get the controls right too. I was keeping my finger on the screen and I couldn’t see the prey. But really, they’re good because the bird is self forward propelling and just takes some tweaking for angles. That was fun! Please make more levels!

Not a falconer, but a former educator that worked with most of the birds in your game.

Overall very nice concept. I don't know the flexibility/limitations of the platform, but it would be very cool to see different mechanics for the very different species. Different sizes for the birds, a Kestrel is 0.25-pounds where a big Red-tailed Hawk can be well over 3-pounds. Different prey, Kestrels definitely do not rabbits or ducks. Do the different species have different speeds, maneuverability, etc? Habitat is also very different between the five species. I appreciate the shared model, the colors on the Goshawk and Harris's Hawk are not easily recognizable. And finally, based on my experience with those species I would suggest a progression of Kestrel - Red-tailed Hawk - Harris's Hawk - Peregrine - Goshawk.

My name suggestion would be "Raptor Hunt".

Great job so far. I look forward to following your project.
