Needs a beach cafe where you can shit on people having a overpriced coffee

Absolutely

Could also have a section where you regain energy by sitting outside my… I mean a window screaming the song of your people. Btw cool looking game, assuming it’s on PC though?

If they're using unity they should be able to make it available on mobile and other platforms without too much trouble when dealing with release

You also need three houses in the neighbourhood that feed you. But one feeds you mince and you get sick for 5 mins.

Also they all move away and the new residents don't like birds, so you die because you've become domesticated.

Yeah houses are random after 3 feeds at the same place and if you get 10 consecutive house feeds you get the domesticated penalty. Where your health is half.

Needs a deli where you can sneak in and steal 50g packs of twisties.

Double points if you hit the Avo toast.. although that might be the seagull version

Do you have a bin chicken mod?

And can they regurgitate bin juice to feed their baby bin chickens?

bin chicken could be a boss fight, magpie has to take them on in a battle on top of the building after unlocking all the achievements. After killing the bin chicken, its carcass explodes and rains down rubbish

Save that for the seagull expansion pack DLC where the goal of the mode is to steal as many chips from people as you can, add in a chips consumed meter and once you reach capacity you explode ending the game and your time gets placed on a ranking board.

Nah mate, chips give you fuel for pooping earning points based on what you hit

I approve of the beach name.

No no no, magpies are crafty little buggers. The real gameplay mechanic would be to convince people that you’re starving so they go off and buy some chips to share with you (and maybe they’re a bit peckish so they’ll finish off what they can’t give you). Then you swoop in and steal a talon full of chips all for yourself

My son and I actually got rolled by a gang of magpies that hang out on the corner near us. There were three of them, two juveniles up high on lookout duty and an older one on the ground. The older one appeared to have only one leg and seemed very sad and was calling to us in a weak, high pitched tone but as soon as we took pity on her and gave her some fruit from my son's lunch (we didn't have anything more appropriate) praise the Lord she was suddenly miraculously healed, producing a perfectly healthy second leg from her feathers and running over to it while the two juveniles sauntered down to share the bounty.

Better yet shitting in the coffee

You’re going to have to include a pit bull and perhaps the QLD premier to make it more realistic..

A friendly Pitbull is a given at this point I think.

Needs an Engadine Macca's map where you can shit Scomo's pants for him to get a special achievement.

Need the ability to caw on demand.

There's a dedicated button for it!

I adore magpies, but I cannot wait to fly around your game and be a fuckin menace. Bonus point if we can steal someones shit and drop it off onto a roof.

There will be many opportunities to steal things and misplace them.

There has to be an miniquest to give certain things to people to help the people who are nice to you or make them give you things like maybe an old lady needs money so you steal from the rich bastard who is always letting his cat out so she will start giving you the good seed. Or a policeman loses his keys to a set of cuffs and you can either give them to him or the crims, thus unlocking other story stuff....

I'd love a bit of demented carolling, Jericho Trumpet style.

My daughter would love this, she's obsessed with magpies 😂

Awesome!

I think you mean Cawsome

Swooperb!

Should add kids on bikes that go fast to chase

With ice cream tubs on their heads like mum used to make us wear in magpie swooping season. They had eyes drawn on them.

And cable tie helmet takedowns for bonus points

Definitely!

Bonus points if you make them pee themselves

Would love to see posters / signs in the area referencing classic Australian cultural references. Eg. A poster advertising "succulent chinese meals" Or An ad for a dating app called "Thousand Blossoms Bloom", and their mascot is a crocodile.

Hahaha. That's a great idea!

You gonna put this in steam man?

That's the plan! Aiming for January 2025

Hell yeah do you have a mailing list? 

No but you can follow me on my socials found at monstershopgames.com

OPEN WINDOWS, some windows are open and can allow you to fly through an apartment. Difficult to do without crashing but BIG points

The next goat simulator

Hopefully!

I was thinking Untitled Magpie Game

Why was this made in the Tonyhawk underground engine for the ps2

Because I'm nostalgic for PS2 Tony hawk games.

Put this bird on a tech deck on a bonus level and let the people K grind

I think it absolutely needs some TH:underground 2 style hidden vehicles in the form of the Magpies animal mates getting involved in the carnage.

Fair enough

Very cool 🤩 love the way the Maggie pov works? Not sure how to talk about game mechanics to compliment you properly.this looks really good!

Thank you for the feedback!

Is there gonna be a seagull bonus level where you smash down fish n chips? Like the Mario bonus levels that are just all coins?

That's a great idea!

Do you take damage from the zip ties in cyclists helmets?

Sure do!

Count me in, looks mad

Add fish and chips to the beach

Will do!

Needs bin chickens

You should make an achievement for shitting in people food, like 10 people's food, and possibly one where you have to fly into 50 people's faces.

Hardest enemy: kids walking home from school swinging cricket bats at you.

I read it as including breakfast objects🤪

Confirming there will also be breakfast objects

I can just see someone lobbing a weetbix at it.

my autistic son would be way down for this. i’d add the seagulls, as an enemy.

Kookaburra to abuse and Myna bird swarm attacks

Needs human allies. People who feed you, so you never swoop them, and get extra points them for saving them from someone. 😜

So where can we play it?

Aiming for a January 2025 release on steam.

Where can we follow for updates mate?

Updates are posted on all of my social media. Links at the bottom of my website: https://monstershopgames.com/

Cheers bro I shall watch your updates with great interest.

i will definitely get it

Bro. Why am I getting Tony Hawk pro skater vibes 😂

All part of the plan my friend. THPS is a big influence

Needs to be a time penalty for flying into the volleyball net. Also needs “seagull on a chip” speed/bonus round. Everything else looks great

Second (or third, or fourth) people in the comments saying classic Aussie references in the background would really add a little bit of flavour. I have no idea how difficult it is to make this happen, but different points for difference swoops and how tricky or dangerous a snack steal is. I.e. if you pinch a chip right out of someone's hand it's extra points, but a sneaky steal from a picnic rug when no one is looking is less. Just went to like on your socials, mate, I cannot wait to be a sky menace and scare the crap out of my digital foes.

This is awesome. Can there be a collectable of 200 twigs to find throughout the levels that add up too unlocking a nest? Maybe having the nest unlocked give you green coloured poop and that's all lol, would achievement hunt for that.

What about NPC-BIRDS - add some random ones flying around, possibly attack/defend...

Tony Squawk; Pro Hater

Assume you can only play it for 5 weeks a year?

Maybe that's when it will be on sale. Swoop season sale.

You need to have an Aussie post guy to attack.. and also a bunnings to steal sausages from 😏

You could do with clotheslines (with clothes) for Maggie to hang upside down from (and perhaps pull the clothes off too!)

do you have plans to make swoopable and poopable targets less generic, like screaming kid on bike, old beer gut in budgies, karen, hipster barista, etc

Tactical sosig snatching! Right out the hand 20 points!

Definitely part of the plan.

Make sure you put a postie on there

I'd definitely play this keep going 👍

Can you make a Victoria park themed one were you can fly around the footy ground swooping Carlton supporters ?

you need a laxative item that lets you rapid fire shits on people

Birds can pick up incredible speed then tuck their wings in like a dart. That way their wings won't clip on branches. I once saw a noisy minor do this while chasing away a magpie. It was a near horizontal vector. It was like watching a fighter jet. Birds with nests don't like competing birds around.

Lemme swoop

Goat simulator magpie edition, love it

Nah seriously, are you 100% going to develop this into a proper game? If you port it to Nintendo Switch I'm buying it.

Add pooping mechanic for sweet revenge on mean people vehicles. Obviously, this requires an eating and stomach capacity feature.

Wait does that spell ‘Nangs’? Very Australian indeed!

If you have particular cities the game is based in, should totally add some rare legendary characters to the game. For example, in Melbourne we have carrot and bike man, fake seizure guy lol

Add Gatorade saxophones, Winnie blues, VB longnecks, meat pies for the culture

THIS could be a fantastic game. All the best with it.

Thanks op this is so freaking cool. I hope it all works out for you and your wonderful hard work. Little Indy classic right there

You created this yourself? Wow. Pretty good.

Mad game

This is AMAZING! Well done OP

Add the iconic Bin Chickens scavenging food from overflowing bins.


Need to add protective gear on the pedestrians, well some. During magpie seasons if I know im going through a nest, I usually have my bag or something protecting my head I'd play the fuck outta this, the potential here is real.

the perfect game doesn't exi... SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

Maggies swoop my cat when she's pooing in the backyard

PLEASE! I WILL STREAM THIS, THIS IS GOLD!

Swooping meat pies out of pedestrians hands...

This is very cool, I can see you have taken inspiration from Tony Hawks well atleast to me it feels like it.

Someone used to play Tony Hawk!!!

Still do!

Holy hell, I NEED THIS!

Need more Aussie animals

i need this

Looks fun

Lol. This is awesome. 10/10 I am traumatized.

What was that 5 letter word again?

Needs an old school Holden or Ford with chrome hubcaps as the Magpies nemesis, something forbidden to swoop at because if you do you end that level. A bit of a trap for the unsuspecting.

This is fkn awesome. I feel like this game will be very popular

What’s this game called? I need it

Pie in the Sky Follow my socials at monstershopgames.com

I want to play

Magpie GTO I LOVE IT

Bro this is sick. If you want some exposure make sure to send this to brown cardigan on Instagram - they will love it and share it.. garner some fans.

Lmao love it, make it so you can steal food off people too

Superman 64 x THPS

Wait until I add rings to fly through!

Need people with umbrellas so the magpie has to come up with clever ways to dodge any counterattacks ..

I Just thought of the best idea to make this game unbeatable ! (Sorry for the second comment) -If you add Aussie voices to the people including slang and insults it'll really sell it. Think GTA 5 style, except Australian, better insults 😅🤣

Does the magpie free the budgies from the smugglers in the game.. or what’s the goal?

This is amazing. My partner has suggested being able to knock the thongs off the swooped beachgoers, and some sort of "find the shiny thing to bring back to the nest/treasure horde" in each level

The letters your collecting, in Tony hawk's it was SKATE, but you need to collect 5 letters and the three we saw are NIG... What are we spelling?

W-I-N-G-S!

Will it be available on steam?

Awesome. Thanks for the easy link to play your game.

Mate have you seen how popular goat simulator is. I think this could take off. Need to be able to steal glasses, hats and food off people.

You gonna add bin chickens?

Reminds me of goat simulator are you a solo because that is good for a solo developer

Is it modelled after any specific beach?

It is but it's missing an iconic building that is in the works

Is this on steam for wishlist yet? What's it called? I'd love to wishlist this bad boy :)

Pie in the Sky Not yet but soon!

This is so cool! I literally used to look for games like this as a kid (where you could be a bird) Will this have multiplayer? It would be fun to shit on people with a friend

Is this on steam yet??

Not yet. Steam page coming soon!

Do you think you'll add other playable birds as unlocks to play? Could add kookaburras, seagulls and other native birds.

Swoopy boy needs swoosh swoosh noises for his wing flaping

This is fantastic

Magpies like shiny stuff any chance to collect/steal shiny items like keys etc from humans?

Fuck how much will this cost and when can I expect to have it.

Can I play it

One of the levels would have you face a chip stealing seagull invasion

Chip throwers?

Needs a hunt for worms and bug mode, and walking, running and perching. Also needs more trees, and the presence of other birds.

Is this the spiritual successor to untitled goose game

This looks sick

looks better than superman 64

Can you shit on people? Cos I feel like that needs to be a feature.

Watch the vid, headshots a guy

Also really graphic and dramatic swoop combo's. The game looks great.

This looks like a really fun idea dude. Please keep it up. I get tony hawks meets crazy taxi vibes

This looks like a great start, can't wait to see where this goes.

Please let him have fights with cockatoos. Those little bastards. Maybe a fight over who can break the creepy crawlie in the pool!

Attack people with shiny keychains and get +50 points 🤣

Awesome, when can we test it for you?

Yeah boiiii, what a game.. should also include being friendly and protecting people who feed you hahaha. Also don't forget magpies are like ravens and are capable of doing puzzles to get food and shxt, thay would cool if you could figure out a puzzle like them ravens do with a stick and you get food for a boost in flight or something!!! Another idea for ya is you gotta go around and collect item to make a nest, raise some chick's etc

The adventures of a swoop chicken named Magpie.

Reminds me of Australia’s answer to crazy taxi.

This looks fantastic. If untitled goose game can make it big, so too can untitled magpie game 🤣🤣

Yea boi gonna get my kids onto this XD

This looks fucking sick! You got a demo or what?

Honestly a goat simulator type game but about magpies would be fire! Who agrees?

Love it man =)

It's cool to see ppl still playing superman64

Wait until I add rings to fly through!

Tony Hawk would love this

Swoopi boi

This is brilliant

Thought this was a shit post. Then you went into the options menu and I'm wondering how much on steam?

Aiming for a January 2025 release. Probably around $15-$20

You already got me down. I'm expecting something like goat simulator but magpie. Should be good for that price point.

Gotta add some cyclists with zip ties poking out their helmets. Swoop one of the bastards and you lose all the feathers you've collected haha

If you want someone to make it look a million bucks I’m your guy

Looks great! Nailed the aesthetic. What engine are you using for this?

I WOULD PLAY

Should have called it Swoopy Boy

There's already a mobile game called Swoopy Boi!

Needs a reference to mollie the magpie and you have to get away from government offficer

This is hilarious. Good job.

Excellent work! im curious, what tools did you use to make it?

This is a great idea. I wish you all the best

I wonder what the letters he was collecting what was it going to spell🤔

It would be nice if the movement was more characteristic of a swoop, im not sure how else to put it.

There is a menacing magpie that taps on my window every morning, maybe add some building interaction objectives later on haha

Awsome! Bud will defs be buying! Will you release on steam?
