Wings & Whiskers

A cute local co-op puzzle-platformer starring an unlikely duo: Wings the Pigeon and Whiskers the Ferret. Embark on a journey across the lush landscapes of Daisy Banks as you face a range of obstacles that can only be conquered through teamwork. 

Disclaimer- full-screen not recommended for wide-screen monitor users (you'll unintentionally be able to see outside the map) OR some users with smaller screens (causing the sides of the map to be cut off).

• Easter egg if all collectibles found!
• I may add more levels in the future for fun :D

Controls:
