Tina’s Pro Birding

Game / Installation, 2018

Determined to one-up a rival birdwatcher, Tina, you grab your binoculars & head for the forest to spot more birds than she can. You’ll get points for every unique species you see, and bonus points for how much time you spend looking at each one.

Inspired by true events on a birdwatching forum.

Controls: Arrow Keys, Mouse (Menus)

IndieCade Night Games

In October 2019, I was invited to bring Tina’s Pro Birding to IndieCade’s “Night Games” event. I modified the original game to be operated through motion tracking hardware (a Bluetooth-connected WiiMote) and built a custom controller shaped like binoculars for players to use.
