About this game
The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.
FLUTTERING
Fluttering is a punishing, precision platformer about Pip: a tiny, colorful bird who was born prematurely. Seeing him as too weak to survive, Pip’s mother decided not to waste resources and pushed him straight out of the nest. Now, Pip is stranded at the very bottom of a beautiful yet brutal world.
But Pip isn't giving up. Armed with nothing but raw willpower and a pair of underdeveloped wings, he is determined to flutter his way back to the top. His mission? To prove to his family, himself, and the universe that practice and sheer determination can conquer any obstacle.
Gameplay That Tests Your Sanity
Deeply inspired by genre titans like Jump King and Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, Fluttering is a masterclass in precision, patience, and emotional damage:
- The Art of the Flutter: Master a unique momentum-based flutter mechanic. This isn’t elegant soaring. It is a desperate, calculated fight for every inch of altitude.
- No Checkpoints, No Mercy: Every single jump is high-stakes. Miss your landing? Watch in horror as you flop all the way back to the forest floor.
- Fall Seven Times, Stand Up Eight: (Or fall seven hundred times). The climb is steep, painful, and dangerously addictive.
A Solo Dev Passion Project
Crafted by a solo developer as a debut passion project, Fluttering is a love letter to the power of resilience.
By supporting Fluttering, you are directly funding the future. 100% of all earnings from this game will go straight towards developing my next passion project: a small, combat-focused indie Souls-like game. It will feature high-stakes gameplay where learning enemy patterns and overcoming unforgiving boss fights is the path to victory.
Do you have the iron nerves required to help Pip reclaim his rightful spot in the nest?
Flutter. Fall. Rage. Repeat.
