Nitrome’s continuing to work hard on putting out new games on a regular basis. Their latest game this year is Cooped Up, which releases on Wednesday. This game has you controlling a green finch that has to go upward and eat insects, because a bird’s gotta eat. Unfortunately, other birds stand in the way. Ugly, featherless birds, often too fat to even move by themselves. So, you must use your finger to propel this green finch upward, to get more points and to eat bugs, while avoiding those ugly other birds.
Much like other Nitrome high score games, this one features great pixel art, and simple gameplay that quickly proves to be quite challenging. It will be free with an in-app purchase to remove ads. It’s more of a straightforward high score chaser, but hey – Nitrome high score chasers are never a bad thing. This one should be rolling out worldwide on Wednesday, so you should be playing this sooner than later.
