About Anomaly Bird

Anomaly Bird is a psychological horror arcade game: a one-button bird game where you fly through the gaps between pipes and watch for anomalies.

When you spot an anomaly, hit the next pipe instead of going through its gap.

Go through the gap after an anomaly, and something will be waiting for you.

Hit a normal pipe, and you die like any other bird.

For the first few pipes, everything looks normal. Then a pipe leans. The sun looks back at you. The score counts the wrong way. Your reflexes say: go through the gap. The rule says: hit the pipe.

Features

  • Over 100 anomalies: in the pipes, the sky, the street below, the bird itself, and the game's own screen. Some are hard to miss. Some you'll only notice after they've killed you.
  • 21 ascensions. Each one adds new anomalies, and more of them per flight. Finish one to unlock the next, and see a little more of what the bird is flying toward.
  • The Anomaly Log keeps every anomaly you've met. Mark the ones that got you and practise them.
  • Flap like the classic, or glide, setting the bird's height with the mouse, the keyboard, or a controller.
  • Three save slots, each with its own mode, ascension, and way of flying.

Options

【Softened jumpscares】

The jumpscares can be softened at any time.

【Glide】

If flapping isn't for you, glide instead.

【Custom mode】

Set your own flying speed, allow pausing, or play only the anomalies you marked for practice.

Anomaly Bird is inspired by Flappy Bird, and by anomaly-spotting games like The Exit 8 and The Cabin Factory.
