Pretty cool- the art and sound goes really well together, and are really well done.
The gameplay.. It feels a little too random. I understand why you choose to do it. Mixing it up can be good.
But playing it a few times the gold coin spawns in areas that it's impossible to get (lower left or right- at least it's very close to impossible ). And my natural instincts is to go after gold coin each possible pass but sometimes it spawns in front of obstacle for many passes rendering yourself a bad score.
That's just being ultra critical, overall very impressive and original idea!
@TouchMedia thanks for the feedback, the coin should always be above the crocs or below the top spikes but yes left and right is also random and you might have to wait for a snake to move before its possible, i wanted to implement a risk vs reward strategy with the coins.
The collision area on the bird is a lot smaller than it looks so its possible to fit between snakes even if theres a smallish gap if you time the tap right.

EDIT New Score of 133
Wow awesome score, I am pretty addicted to this game not sure I will ever break 100 though.
Shame more people didn't pick this up and challenge me on GC currently only about 80 odd players posted a score...if you can't give them away what chance have you got selling them
I had a play tonight and got 129 so determined to beat my best.

Yep, I don't get it. This is one of the most addicting games I have played in a good while, wonderful presentation and free. I am not sure what people want now days.
Only thing that was maybe against it was the app icon, probably could've been made to "pop" more. Still, I downloaded it - great game!
Goes to show that the App Store is getting more congested by the minute.

@DeepBlueApps thanks a lot guys, I'm on the verge of a divorce I'm so addicted to this game, the kids will just have to fend for themselves for awhile @Braydon_SFX Sorry man I just took second place from you! >:) @DeepBlueApps watch out I'm coming for you next >:) >:) great game guys!!
Freindly family competition over the weekend with this.
With a my best score of 57, I thought I was doing great.
My son just beat my score, and all your scores with 132 points... except for @DeepBlueApps , who still seems unbeatable.

Wonderful game, I wish I would have thought this up! Everything is perfect, controls, art music, super nice game. My best is 36 so far.
Neat game. I really like the art style. Nice work

Tried to beat 133 tonight and only managed 50s.

got 70
@CodeMonster 70 is great!!! I played this last night for an hour and managed to get over 100 a couple of times but still can't beat my 133
Darren.
My best is 76, I can't imagine getting over 100. Have downloads picked up at all?
Woo! Broke top 10.
Best score is 80-something... Addictive game.
Not sure why it got merged into the flappy thread but to answer an old question I had about sales....it's had 186 total installs.
Darren.
Only 186 downloads? Isn't it free? My goodness...People don't know what a good game looks like anymore.
@Braydon_SFX Check game center
new top score.
Darren.
@DeepBlueApps - I guess I'll have to take a good 2 hour slot of time tonight to reclaim my spot.
Not sure either. I was the one asking about downloads,I can't believe only 186, this is honestly one of my favorite games.
Only thing that was maybe against it was the app icon, probably could've been made to "pop" more. Still, I downloaded it - great game!

152!!! How??? @DeepBlueApps
@DeepBlueApps
A couple complaints about your game.
That will be all and I will catch your high score
Great way to break my Friday afternoon!
48 which makes me #15. My goal is top 10 before the day is over.
