The controls of the game are similar to the FlappyBird game, where you have to click on the screen to keep the bird airborne and avoid it from falling into the sea or hitting the obstacles. As you flap the bird to keep it airborne, you will be able to see that the health of the bird decreases with each flap that it makes, but it also recharges when the bird is not flapping. The aim of the game is to find the perfect balance between keeping the bird airborne and not using too many flaps in order to make the health of the bird last longer, and allow it to go a longer distance.
