Lovely game, all in all!

Hand whisks

My game experience: When I first downloaded this game, I played it for five minutes, then deleted it. This happened twice or so. After re-downloading this game for the third time, I thought, "it's the app of the week, how hard can it be?" So I played it again, first tapping the screen rapidly, then realizing that you HOLD THE SCREEN DOWN TO MOVE. I laughed at myself a few times, then started to enjoy the game! I played it more and more and I liked it more and more each time! A lot of the bad reviews are about how this game is too difficult. Or how the controls are impossible to learn. Well I've learned them, and so has most of the school that I go to as well! About the game: The graphics are mesmerizing, the music is wonderful, and original. And the game story is funny and extremely creative! A hobo dreaming of flying and obsessively collecting doves? Hilarious! You can't find a flaw in a made up story! ? To be real: Every game causes the player to come to their breaking point where they badly fail at breaking their device. But I love this game so much that I figured out, to make it easier to play, ?turn off the games sound? the music is peaceful, but the sound of yourself dyeing over and over is enraging. So turn that feature off! I do wish that had made more levels, fingers crossed for an update! ?


Its a guessing game

The controls will switch depending on the level and has random difficulty spikes to make it "challenging." The moving platforms don't reset when you die so if they are off screen you cant time yourself to go at the right time. Some levels are annoying because everything is too close together so instead of trying to deal with the problem like moving at platforms the real challenge comes from your narrow pathways and confusing controls that are impossible to get use to because there will be a different challenge in the next level so you cant expect to stay consistent. I guess you are supposed to collect doves but nothing directly says that or maybe i didn't read it but its still kind of fun which is why after that I will give it a 2


Love it ?

This game is so great at first I thought ooh look this is one of those kind of games... But then I was addicted. In less Than a week I completed all the levels and now I don't even know what to do anymore. I was addicted on my first day. For all of those people who think this game is bad. Then you don't know what a good game is


The controls are horrible!

The controls of this game are one of the worst I've ever used.


I'm giving it up. Too hard for me?

This game is for hard-core players. It needs time and effort to adapt to the game control. So I practiced quite a bit and finally managed to get to Pack3(I didn't count but I think I died like hundreds of time to get there). I did it only because I really, awfully wanted to see the ending, but Pack3 was literally a night mare??? and it wasn't fun anymore. I stopped playing it as I was too upset to keep going. And now I'm feeling terrible and frustrated??? I shouldn't have downloaded it...


Two Thumbs Up & Two Thumbs Steady !

HustlerMag

This exhilarating game is a very exciting one where there are several variables in the aerodynamics category; which makes it challenging , addicting and overall fun. 8Bit-Dove has mastered it's retro style pixel art which has extraordinary graphics comparable any first generation hand held games, and sega games such as your favorites - Pokemon or Zelda. Yet there's no story, but you take on a heavy sleeper who's not so aware of his surroundings and yea.. Just don't wake him up. But remember it's all about the doves. Go back for doves. And to the first comment, I agree... This is nothing like "FLAPPY BIRD" BUT... It's like a rebirth of "RETRY" a other good game, that you should try... Except I like 8bit-Dove better...... You can do figure eights in this one!! Except it's no retry points, no upgrades and nothing to slow you down... Good Luck ! Happy Dove Collecting !


Awful

Bad controls, bad music


Review

GreatMindz

You're an overgrown animated 8bit-dove that springs out of bed when the screen is pressed. With intuitive gameplay similar to Iron Pants or the more commonly-known Flappy Bird, you fly radial circles and try to swoop through the obstacles in each level while making smaller birds follow you. If you enjoy simplistic style games and on-the-go, pick-up play then this game is for you. The only rebuttal I can think of is the price of $2.99. I got this game when it was Free and I don't think it would be worth paying money for.


Beat it in a week
