Drill Bird

Drill Bird is a digging platformer about a bird that has fallen from the sky and is trying to hatch its egg. You use your drill-like beak to dig underground for ores, then bring them home to feed the egg and upgrade your abilities. Each trip counts: dig deeper for greater opportunities, but weigh the risks and return before night falls.

Dig and survive

You explore underground caves, mine valuable ores and uncover hidden treasure. Breaking blocks brings you closer to helping the egg hatch. You can upgrade your drill, carrying strength, health and other abilities as you dig.

Monsters lurk underground, and you must drill, dodge and outmaneuver them to survive. Time is limited, so you need to make it home before darkness falls, or face what comes for you. The game’s atmospheric story is told without words, through a short loop of survival and care.

Cursed Mode

After completing the base game once, you can enter Cursed Mode. A demon offers to make your child the strongest bird in your bloodline, but at a cost. This mode adds a hand-crafted world with new enemies, puzzles and secrets, along with a new story and multiple endings. Cursed Mode doubles the game’s length.
