About This Demo

Hit the trail in this open-world birdwatching adventure, featuring real-world bird species! Feather Trail is a labor of love by a former bird biologist turned solo gamedev.

In the demo, you begin as a fledgling birder who's just been hired to conduct field surveys by the Ecology Institute. Grandma's here to show you the ropes!

• Enjoy a wide variety of bird species, presenting diverse behaviors and challenges for identification through timing-based minigames (soaring overhead, hiding in shrubs, diving underwater, etc.)

• Collect your "life list" through encounters in the field, cooperating and competing with local birders, and rising through the ranks of the Birding League

• Conduct surveys and scientific research alongside the Ecology Institute, improving your mastery as an ornithologist

• Build trails and trek to the outer reaches of the backcountry, helping the Nature Service to protect and improve the wilderness
