This is one of my all time fave Atari games retro acrade style platformers of yesteryear. I absolutely love "bird ass" also as it is sometimes referred to cause thats bascially the gameplay.You squash your enemy with your birds butt collect the eggs etc. one of those fun addictive games that you keep wanting to play over and over to keep challenging yourself to see how high you can get your score each time to beat your own self at it. very fun definite classic.

The name of it is what it is. U can either battle on multiplayer or against a cpu. U r at a stage with platforms and many floors to stand on and u throw ur arrow at the other player until they lose a life and u get more points. To get on the platforms u fly up. Ur charecter moves very fast and flys fast too so it is hard to beat ur enemy. The colors r plain and dull because there r not that many. The background is just one color. The controls r hard to use since ur charecter moves so fast. The multiplayer mode is very fun. It is a great game becides those features.
