How to play
Stand or sit back so the camera sees your upper body. Flap both arms downward-and-up like wings — each sharp upward wrist movement gives the bird one flap of lift, with gravity doing the rest. Thread the gaps between the pipes; each pipe passed is a point. Gaps narrow and pipes come faster the longer you survive.
Movement is read from MediaPipe's pose landmarker (33 body points). Only the average vertical
speed of your two wrists matters, so big theatrical flaps and tiny efficient ones both work —
one flap registers at most every 260 ms, like a real bird with commitment issues. Your
best score is kept in localStorage on your device.
Privacy
The camera turns on only after you click start, and the light goes off the moment you hit stop camera or leave the page. Frames are processed by a WASM model served from this site — nothing is uploaded, no account, no tracking of any kind on your input. Verify it yourself: open DevTools → Network while playing and watch nothing leave.
Requirements
A webcam, a bit of room to swing your arms, and a reasonably recent browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari 16+). The tracker prefers your GPU and falls back to CPU. First load fetches ~16 MB of model + WASM once, then it's cached.
