Fledgling Heroes take flight on Switch

Fledgling Heroes is a side-scrolling flap ‘em up from Subtle Boom. It features brave birds battling a wild world beyond the nest in May.

Each feathered friend has their own treacherous tale to tell as they dodge pirate lizARRrds, dash through frozen forests, dive through sunken temples, and flap their way from fledglings to fully-fledged heroes! Fledgling Heroes also features a fully customisable online level editor enabling gamers to build their own adventures and test them against their friends or other players across the globe!

Features include:

  • Level editor - featuring the same tools the devs used to create the game! Explore, create and share levels with other players around the world.
  • Couch co-op - it’s dangerous to go alone - play with a friend! Drop-in another player at any time for some cooperative assistance… or some competitive capers.
  • Customise your birds - use wacky colours, or recreate your favourite variations found in the wild.
  • Collectathon challenge - scavenge with the best of them and collect everything the game has scattered about the world. Dodge obstacles, beat timers, and glide with pin-point accuracy to collect rabbits, feathers, skins, and editor blueprints.
