If you're in need of a new game to try, our deckbuilder demo just went up on Friday! We have 16 reviews so far (all positive), & we don't use AI. We're just 2 people & don't even have an artist, but we make our art with old public domain bird illustrations!

Every day we pick 3 random "modifiers" from a list of 27 modifiers. That's about 3000 possible combinations so we're already set for about 10 years. Except of course some of them exclude others and some enforce others so it's a bit less than that.
Sparrow Warfare update 0.4.29 dropped. Bring on the Misery (yes that's a new Daily Run mode). store.steampowered.com/news/app/347...
Giving @neonaurelius.bsky.social's Sparrow Warfare a try. Very cool setup, some creative stacking of attacks in this 'free the birds' class warfare card game. And I adore the music!
I've been playtesting Sparrow Warfare for a long time now, so I'm always up for weird experiments. I went a bit wild with this one and may have made too many bombs lol
Thanks for the laughs @neonaurelius.bsky.social 😂
Haven't played StS2 yet but I already like this game much better than StS1, even though StS1 is very good itself.
Sparrow Warfare will make you think a lot more about each play you make and will then reward you with some very fun synergies. It'll probably take a minute to click but it clicks GOOD.
A list of 259 Steam releases with the amazing Sparrow Warfare making it to the front page. The hype is real!
You love to see it (259 games is less than I thought but still qualifies as an avalanche).
Sparrow Warfare is part of the #WholesomeUnderdogs festival on Steam right now! It's a festival to celebrate "games made by small teams that don’t always get the spotlight, but absolutely deserve it" 🥹❤️

I playtested this! It's a really good deck builder!
A few weeks ago, a lovely videographer called Rob Allmand asked to come by & make a short documentary about our making of Sparrow Warfare.
& here it is!
Full of birds, our weird workarounds, & us being awkward:

2/ @neonaurelius.bsky.social has just launched a crazy fun demo of their bird-based #cardbattler SPARROW WARFARE. We happily spent a fair amount of our Sunday getting sucked in to the depth of this slick title.

Hey, new post! In this week's issue, I:
- examine the distressing but undeniable parallels between Bilbo Baggins and Ray Smuckles;
- traverse an extended metaphor for how it's hard, frustrating work to decommission the brain garbage we inherit;
- recommend a game that's overflowing with bird puns
In case you avoid Slay the Spire 2 because you don't wanna lose 1000 hours immediately, how about a StS-esque demo about birds?
Tho to be fair, if you play like me it's mostly about an awful sparrow setting everyone on fire, then blowing up repeatedly. But. Birds!
We'll be in this with Sparrow Warfare & we are SO EXCITED for it.
Éire abú!! 🇮🇪❤️
We’re delighted to reveal the Irish Games art-piece we commissioned from acclaimed Irish artist and game developer @denmanrooke.com, showcasing some of the incredible games and characters from across Irish games, alongside touchpoints of Irish culture.

Friends, chumps, wizards-of-ill-repute: today we launched our DEMO for Sparrow Warfare!
If you are into deckbuilders and somehow not already 110% consumed with Slay The Spire 2, give us a whirl over the weekend!

This game is very good. I know it’s a bit of a week for deckbuilders but you have to give it a go.
Char and Martin are:
a)some of the best people you will ever meet, and
b) great game makers.
So there's at least two reasons for you to go get the demo of their game. If you need another one:
c) it's a very, very good deckbuilder.
Get the demo on this beautiful brand new Demo page: store.steampowered.com/app/4396770/...
Screenshot of the best deckbuilder to ever grace this planet. In this demo, you can experience the core loop of the game. First, you can expect a tutorial. Then you can play with two different characters for the first half of the regular game, along with the “Daily Flight”: a brand new challenge every single day with a global leaderboard. Hours of playtime await you, and we hope you enjoy every single minute! Sparrow Warfare is a synergy-rich deckbuilder where you make wild combinations of tiles to free birds and battle against the fiendish Storyteller and his minions. In addition, daily flight mode offers endless replayability with different challenging modifiers and global leaderboards. Features: 🃏Deckbuilding: 150+ wildtiles to discover and infinite game-breaking combos to find ♾️ Endless Replayability: progressive difficulty, daily flights & challenging modifiers 🔥 Multiple Playstyles: suit your personal taste, whether you prefer aggression or cunning 🐦🔥 Big Bird Action: 100+ birds to free, each one featuring real bird sounds 🤺 Meta-Strategy: experiment with synergies & build new approaches run after run The full game of Sparrow Warfare will include all four different Ways (Fire, Song, Water, and Ghost), the full progression mode up to Level 12 for all four Ways, and Steam achievements. We plan to have full localisation for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, Spanish, and Russian in the full game. Sparrow Warfare is developed by just two veteran game developers (Martin Pichlmair & Charlene Putney) who share all of the work between them, but it wouldn’t be as good without the amazing assistance of our loyal playtesters: we love you guys! We truly hope you enjoy our demo. Please wishlist and follow Sparrow Warfare to keep informed about development and help us get the word out there. Fly free little sparrows! Martin & Char
And just like that, we've released our first public demo for Sparrow Warfare. From here on out we're building in the open. And you can be a part of that!
I cannot WAIT for more of you folks to get your hands on this. Watching it develop has been a treat. It's challenging in all the right places and makes you wanna play more and more.
FREE THE BIRBS.

One more day & a lovely pelican painting by my uncle, Robert Zeppel Sperl. I actually own that one. It's technically under copyright but he's my uncle and I'm sure he wouldn't mind. He was a lovely dude.
Tomorrow the Sparrow will be in your hands. Choose wisely how to play your tiles, lest things get out of hand.
Only two more days until it's Sparrow Warfare demo o'clock!
Only 3 days until our demo launches. Just made an even better build. Time for us and our playtesters to give it a final spin. Crazy how far this game has come with only two developers.
Thank you so much for including Sparrow Warfare in the list of top demos to try this week, @arturadawn.bsky.social & @gamegrin.com - what a lovely Monday surprise!!
