The King's Bird is a momentum-driven, precision-platforming game that has players seamlessly dash, glide, and flow through a mysterious world with precision and grace.

Set in a cryptic world kept secret by a tyrant, The King’s Bird has players use a unique momentum-based flying mechanic to run, jump, and fly past challenges as they make their way through forgotten lost kingdoms. Only after mastering the world of flight can players discover the truth about their freedom.

New yet easily accessible take on the precision-platforming genre.

Flight · Flow · Freedom


“While The King’s Bird may look like a strenuous platformer, it actually has fluid controls that allows the game to be accessible for a variety of players, no matter their platforming prowess,” said Kevin Zhang, Producer at Serenity Forge. “In addition, we’ve added an Assist Mode that helps alleviate some of the hurdles that players will encounter, including flight limitations, for a more ‘Zen-like’ experience.”

Key Features:

  • Dynamic background music and sounds that change based on your movements
  • Text-less narrative told through visuals in motion
  • Five unique worlds to explore, full of vibrance and colorful silhouettes, with inspirations from ancient Mayan, Southeast Asian, and Roman cultures

The King’s Bird will be available for PC (Steam) on August 23, 2018 for $19.99.
