Starlings Indie Game
Starlings is an independent game developed by Russ Morris that I’ve been keeping an eye on for a while now. Its an original concept, something often rare in the gaming world these days (sorry to sound quite so cynical!) which involves the player building a flock of starlings from just a single bird in flight.
A fascinating idea for a game that blends puzzle, art and flight sim in one.
Check out the vimeo video below and then go and try the latest build on the site here. You can also read Russ’s development blog here.
This reminds me a lot of Flower.
Kudos for the excellent use of Sigur Ros.
This isn’t original, it’s Flower with birds.
Nice and constructive! I think there’s plenty of difference, I haven’t played Flower a lot, but I like the flocking concept of Starlings. Play nice now!

Very good work, I commend the developer on his work and found it fun, but can’t really call it original.
The girls and boys at ThatGameCompany had the original vision with Flower. Amazing concept and excellent execution. Love the studio’s work.
