Wowzers!... I had carls JR today. Great jobah broooooaaaaaaahhh! :)

Pretty good climber. I like this better than that horrible "flappy" paradigm. The graphics are very nice. The music is fitting.

I'm not having trouble with the control as others are. For one, if the owl didn't stop flapping every few seconds, he would gain too much momentum and careen out of control. Second, I like the way you can command how fast he moves. Being able to slide across the screen quickly is useful for reaching far away gaps, but being able to move in little increments also helps to get through gaps that are very close. Good decision.

It would be nice if you informed us what power ups are available. I'm not sure what the trophy does, but I think it boosted me up a number of levels. The slow-down power up seems broken... it's duration is too short; by the time I picked it up and moved to the next gap, it was gone. The shield power up, however, works very well. Not too long, not too short.

I ran into a strange glitch. On a replay, I didn't get to the arrows keys fast enough, and suddenly the screen scrolled down to the bottom, where the grass is, and Owly slowly fluttered off the bottom of the screen. The screen turned grey, like when you get a slow-down power up, and it remained grey for all subsequent replays until I actually picked-up a slow-down (or if I'd reloaded the page, I presume). Also, I once saw Owly explode into feathers after I cleared a gap perfectly. That was during the "grey" problem, though.

I think you should have changing backgrounds. As Owly gets higher up, the sky should change, just to give some sense of progress. It can turn to evening, or he can reach space, or whatever. Maybe he does and I haven't gotten far enough. I also think there should be a warning when the shield power-up is about to run out. It can flash rapidly, are maybe there's a timer that counts down. that would give the player a second to get themselves back under control.

Otherwise, it's good.

Relatively fun, felt like your generic phone game. The only minor thing I'd change is the fact that you can still move after death.

Much pretty

The game is awesome. But one thing, I don't like how the owl just stops moving up every 3 seconds. You have to hit the up arrow key again whenever that happens, which really makes the gameplay a little bit of a hassle. So change that, add music (I think you're already planning that seeing how there is a sounds button) and this game would deserve a 5 star in my opinion!
