About
Drill Bird is a cozy-yet-tense digging platformer where every trip underground counts. You play as a Bird, fallen from the sky, working to hatch your egg. With a drill for a beak you dig deep for precious ores, and bring them back to to empower your Egg and upgrade your abilities. Outsmart monsters, upgrade your drill, and don’t let night catch you too far from home.Explore underground caves, mine valuable ores, and uncover hidden treasure. Every block you break or not will bring you closer to helping your egg hatch.

takes less than an hour to beat and there's no replayability. the map is small, static, and there's nothing random about the despite there being absolutely no setpieces where the actual gameplay is taking place, just different types of dirt blocks scattered about. instead of playing the game you can just look at the 5 gifs on this page because that's literally all there is it's really boring, to top it all off. there is zero variation in gameplay from the very first second of playing. i only beat it because i wanted to see the egg hatch
A very fun little digging game
милая игра про птичку, но без геймпада или джойстика не очень удобно играть
Dobra gra tylko zdecydowanie za krótka.
2-х годинний шедевр!
A pleasant little mining game that can be beaten in a couple of hours! I did get stuck at one point because I hadn't yet figured out a mechanic necessary to complete the game, though that was mostly just due to me missing the area that explains that mechanic to you. It's cool that you don't have an 'attack,' and have to use falling blocks or spikes to defeat enemies. It turns combat into a sort of puzzle, which I think is pretty cool! Been replaying it to try and get all the achievements, some are pretty challenging!
fun short 1 hour platformer game similar to mr. driller
really perfect game, the ending chase scared the ♥♥♥♥ out of me lol
Une heure et demi de tranquillité et de plaisir !
Very short and sweet game. Cute designs and very smooth gameplay without overstaying its welcome. For that quick and easy mining fix.
