The Bird Gets the Worm... If the Dice Allow It! 🎲

Ever wonder why only the early bird gets the worm? It’s because they’re the only ones rolling for Initiative!

Early Bird is a cozy, d20-powered point-and-click game where your breakfast depends entirely on the whims of the dice. Forget reflexes—in this meadow, you’re playing against a Difficulty Class (DC). Will you feast like a king or go hungry because of a stray natural one?

How to Play 🐛

It’s simple! To try and snag a snack:

  • Click the number floating above a worm's head.
  • Watch the D20 spin.
  • Pray to the RNG gods that you meet or beat the score!

The Scoring Breakdown 📊

Your success depends on the roll of the die. Here is how the points shake out:

Roll Result Outcome Points
NAT 20 Critical Success! You’re a legend. +2 Points
Meet or Beat DC A successful hunt. Enjoy the protein. +1 Point
NAT 1 A critical fail (unless the DC was 1). -1 Point & Lose the Worm

Whether you're a seasoned Dungeon Master or just a bird looking for a bite, come test your luck in the grass. Just remember: the dice give, and the dice take away.

Happy hunting!

Under Construction! 🏗️

This is just the beginning for our feathered friend. This first phase is all about the pure thrill of the roll, but stay tuned for potential future updates including:

  • Bird Buffs: Modifiers to help you tilt the odds in your favor.
  • Cosmetics: You get to chose how you look swooping in to get the worm.

Some features may or may not be added as I am working on this in my free time.
