comment
BirdGut is a hand-drawn, free-to-play Puzzle Platformer released on Steam in May 2019. It was developed and published by one person, Micah Boursier.An underdeveloped bee is cast out from its hive, and soon after eaten by a bird. However, rather than the internal organs one would expect to find, the guts of the bird are facilities in which the consumed insects are brainwashed and enslaved. By a twist of fate the bee escapes brainwashing and tries to escape.

comment
Tempting Fate: In the Prologue, the main character cuts in front of an unemployment line for bugs, and the frustrated attendant quits on the spot and says he'd rather be stepped on than deal with this kind of disrespect any longer. Cue the bird, which steps on him before eating the other bugs.

Multiple Endings
 BirdGut (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: There are three possible outcomes, dependent on the protagonist's actions in the final room. Lose-Lose: The protagonist leaves the bird without launching the missiles. The resistance hangs their head in shame, and the protagonist lands on some lethal spikes on its way out. Going Down with the Ship: The protagonist launches the missiles, but doesn't leave the bird in time and dies in the explosion. The Hatless One: The protagonist launches the missile and leaves the bird before detonation. He gets out unscathed as the bird explodes.

Final Boss: After you've defeated all the rest of the security insects that attack you in the battle room, a large praying mantis shows up. It can stab you with its pincers, spit deadly poison at you, spawn smaller, flying mantises to attack you, and roar so that deadly garbage drops from the ceiling.
