About Bird Week

Bird Week is a game where the player directs a mother bird's actions. The central objective involves gathering nourishment for offspring.

Two baby birds remain stationary on a branch, dependent on the player. The mother bird flies through the environment to collect items like butterflies, which serve as food. This foraging activity is complicated by the presence of aggressive birds that pose a threat to the mother or her gathered provisions.

Successfully delivering a required amount of food to the young allows progression to a subsequent stage. The cycle of foraging while avoiding threats defines the primary gameplay loop.
