About Birdcakes
Birds + cupcakes = Birdcakes!!!
Step into a world of state-of-the-art cupcake-and-bird weaponry! After a picnic went horribly wrong, Pancake the Cupcake desperately tries to fend off hungry flies away from his girlfriend Cherry! Featuring colorful 2D art; tight shooting controls; and fluid aerial movement mechanics; you’ll be set for a wacky, zero-calorie romp through the kitchen and beyond.
Fly through 6 fly-infested worlds and destroy them with Pancake’s powerful candy bullets. This will be no walk in the park however! Die once, and it’s all the way back to the beginning; so make sure to buy power-ups from the bakery store and get ready to save the (cupcake) world!

Fun, cute, good graphics, kinda hard, arcady game with a roguelite-like upgrade system1 found this helpful
The game is awful.
eh... no, I mean if you have spare money than maybe but it's not a game that I want to put more hours on.
pretty fun defense shooter I wish I could change the default controls on the keyboard the game had really funky fps for me hovering between 45 and 50 until I changed AlternateSyncMethod=1 which had previously been set to 0 I would post that in the discussion group but having no knowledge of who is in charge of that place and the way they keep it I would rather not risk another community ban
I first played this game on Xbox One about a year ago, near the game releasing. I fell in love with the fusion style jazz soundtrack, the funny story, the chill gameplay, the never ending load screen story, and have mentioned it at some point to everyone who loves the top down shooter/comical/fun/relaxed style bullet hell gameplay. I don't want to write a bloated review, other than to say I was that impressed with it on Xbox I bought it again on PC when it went on sale. Had I never purchased it on Xbox, I'd happily have spent at least $5 on it to support the developer(s?) in hope they'll keep making awesome, fun, unique games that I really had a blast playing. If you want a fun little underrated gem of a game, made with a ton of passion and love, do yourself a favor and pick up Birdcakes. Like me, I'd wager chances are solid you too will fall in love with the charm. :-)
