Black Bird is a shoot'em up developed by Onion Games - a team whose portfolio includes such titles as Million Onion Hotel and Dandy Dungeon. The game, supervised by Yoshiro Kimura (producer and director of Little King's Story), is coming to the PC and Switch.

Mechanics

In Black Bird we observe the action from the side. During the game we play as a girl transformed into a black bird. Running to the right, the protagonist crosses a gloomy land and eliminates hordes of enemies by firing bubble-like missiles or dropping bombs. You'll need skill and reflexes - enemies often attack from all sides, and have varying resistance to damage.

Niche Gamer: 9 / 10 by Brandon Orselli

Black Bird is an excellent shoot ’em up and a landmark release for Onion Games. As this is their first release on proper gaming platforms, it makes sense they went all out and produced an exceptional game within a shiny package. It really is a fun time, and can get legit challenging.

GameSpot: 5 / 10 by Tom Mc Shea

Black Bird's irreverent take on shoot-'em-up is fun while it lasts, but there's not enough content to sustain repeat playthroughs.
