Whack'a'pigeon!

Game Instructions

Pesky pigeons will be soaring across your precious screen, threatening to turn your pristine digital backyard into a feathery mess!

Your sacred duty is to smash them with your mighty hammer before disaster strikes! This isn't just a game; it's a mission to maintain the sanctity of your screen.

The Pigeons: Know Your Foe!

The dark-grey pigeon: This menace is the primary threat! If it unleashes its deposit right in the middle, your pristine yard is doomed! Hit them fast and hard to prevent an unsightly splat.

The light-grey pigeon: This coward will try to chicken out by flying away, often without leaving a "gift." Still, don't let it escape! While less dangerous, eliminating these earns you points and clears the screen.

Your Arsenal & Tactics

Unleash the fury! Click to swing that hammer like you mean it! Precision is key, my friend. Your hammer's hitbox requires accurate aiming – a true test of your reflexes.

The Challenge Ahead

Each level will crank up the speed! These feathery foes get angrier, faster, and more numerous. Your reaction time will be pushed to the limits!

Hidden Perks & Lifesavers

Psst! Keep your eyes peeled for a red balloon. Whack that little fella, and bam! An extra life for your heroic efforts! These are rare, so seize the opportunity when it appears.
