Birdigo (bird word game) is coming July 30th 2025!
Wishlist now! 🦜🦜🦜
Birdigo was created and designed by John August (Big Fish, Corpse Bride) and developed by Corey Martin (Bonfire Peaks, Tire Boy). The two met after John put out a call for a game dev collaborator on his screenwriting podcast Scriptnotes.
John wanted to adapt his physical word game AlphaBirds into a Slay the Spire/Balatro-like single player experience. Corey got in touch and, in spite of having played neither Slay the Spire nor Balatro, convinced John he was the person for the job.
The resulting game, Birdigo, is super fun. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Thanks for reading and, again, wishlist today!

We've also made many micro-improvements to the UI and SFX while developing the iOS version of the game, which is…v2025.09.02.22.04Fixes the bug reported herev2025.08.15.22.31singularity achievement now accounts for egg hunts properly (you can get the achievement whether you do egg hunts or not) · fixed: no longer possible to get a duplicate letter on restock/redraw · minor UI tweaks · feather & song descriptions no longer have bold hard-to-read text
