Release Date: October 18, 2018
A shoot'em up, in which we play as a girl transformed into a black bird. As we play Black Bird, we explore a gloomy land and eliminate hordes of enemies using bombs or bubble-like projectiles.
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.
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.
Black Bird's two-dimensional graphics feature a pixelart style and a bit depressing colors, contrasting with a dynamic soundtrack that encourages you to play.

Pure Nintendo: 8 / 10 by Kirstie Summers
Black Bird has a distinctly creepy fairytale feel about it, with a dark story and the kind of retro explosions that will appeal to any lifelong gamer.
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.
