Angry Birds is a port of the mobile game of the same name for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. It was originally developed by Zhengyaxin_8bit. The game was republished on cartridges and "Firecore"-based plug & plays possibly with or without Zhengyaxin's permission. as well as develop additional hacks of the game. The game was later ported to Famicom/NES hardware as Super Angry Birds; the NES port was likely also developed by Zhengyaxin.
Overview[]
The Angry Birds Genesis port features rather stiff physics compared to the mobile original. The fortresses and wooden planks do not actually fall, merely disappearing when a lined-up "hit" is detected; a trait shared with Super Angry Birds and the later-released Angry Birds in Russia. This makes the game rather difficult to play as a result. The port is largely incomplete and contains a bug which makes the game crash after pressing the Reset button.
Angry Birds Season[]
Angry Birds Season is a hack of the game only known to exist on the ES-2016 16bit handheld, the hack changes the game to be based on the "Season's Greedings" update from Angry Birds Seasons, it adds new sprites, new levels, and a cutscene.[1] It's likely to have been made by Zhengyaxin.
