Flying Around the City in a “Uwu” Bird Game!
Ever been curious how you could hint at your Singapore roots without saying “I’m from Singapore”? Meet Seetoh Wei Tung, a 21‑year‑old national serviceman who’s just turned his hometown pride into a hopping, chirping adventure called an “Uwu” bird game.
How It Happened
With a quick 10‑day jam and a few extra polishing sessions, Seetoh and his old game‑design professor, Jeff Hung, whipped up this gem at Republic Poly, where Seetoh earned a diploma in Game Design.
What The Game Is About
Picture a breezy park: you’re a cute, Asian koel bird — the kind of fluffy bird that’s a real “uwu” icon. You catapult yourself across platforms, climb nifty objects, and hit the “jump” key to keep flying high. The whole point? To make a little “uwu” noise that keeps crowds at bay.

controls your glide. - Jump: Spacebar.
- Uwu‑Scream: Left mouse button.
Why It Matters
When people hear the “uwu” sound, they’re suddenly faceless, put on a mask, and fly off, keeping the crowd from piling up. It’s a quirky, gentle way to enforce safe distancing at a public park — all while giving a nod to Seetoh’s Singaporean flavor.
Reddit Fans Love It
On December 28, Seetoh dropped the game on Reddit, and the replies were nothing short of heartwarming. Over 400 upvotes later, people’re laughing and pointing out just how fun a 3‑D bird could be in saving the day.
So if you want to hint at your Singapore origin without telling others, just hop into an “uwu” bird game and let the chirps do the talking.

Crazy About the “Uwu” Bird: How a Quirky Game Turned Playtime Into a Party
Seetoh and his lecturer were on a mission: capture the fever‑pitch chatter of the Asian koel. While they could have recorded a choir of plucky birds, they decided to grab the perfect chirp online instead. For stepping through the pixelated world, they slicked up the soundtrack with a humble handheld—slippers bouncing on hardwood, tile, and that one squeaky wooden floor you see only in old homes.
Why a Game for a Humble Avian Hero?
“When we hatched the idea, we wanted to spotlight a ‘person’ often left out of the spotlight,” Seetoh told AsiaOne. “The ‘uwu’ bird felt like an invisible pop‑star who deserves a fan club.” He added that the moment one of them whispered “uwu” in the distance felt like a friendly nod from the universe, hinting that this little bird could mirror our everyday idea of safe distancing.
Friends & Family = 100% Glee
Most of Seetoh’s crew fell in love with the game—laughs, wide smiles, and the kind of joyous friction that only “exclusively crappy” games bring. Even the big fish of an offline family grill couldn’t resist the green‑ish bird’s antics.
Reddit • 4‑AM Sessions Deets for the Dad‑Whisper
- A Reddit user stuck with the game until the
clock in the morning said, “–by the way, why not turn the volume down so I don’t have to beg my mother for peace?” - Seetoh, ever the accommodating programmer, made sure the audio settings were safe for the “entrances to the family war room.”
All in all, the “uwu” bird was no longer a silent, unassuming feathered friend. It became a playful force, good for a quick high‑speed flier, a meme‑worthy cameo, and an audio tour by the slipper‑pedal harmony that of course let Seetoh and his team brag about how wildly enjoyable the experience is. The result? A game that not only hits the high notes but also keeps you up looping through the midnight hours—full of laughter and paw‑paws.
Arduous Cha-ss: The TikTok Bird‑Battle That Had Everyone Talking
Picture this: you’re scrolling through TikTok on a lazy Sunday, the algorithm tosses you a random clip, and suddenly you’re in the witness seat of an epic showdown between a human and an incredibly melodious bird. That’s exactly what happened to a TikToker in November 2020, courtesy of an Asian koel that proved its feathers were more than just swish.
How It All Began
- A TikTok user stumbles upon a bright yellow throat‑blooming Asian koel singing a croak that sounds like a deep, echoing alarm.
- Without missing a beat, the user decides to challenge the bird to a “yell‑off.” The person shouts, the bird answers—
- The back‑and‑forth grows louder until the bird takes the crown as the likely victor.
It’s almost hard to believe that a bird, on instinct, out‑shout‑s a teenager in the middle of a viral dance battle. The result? Clips that made you think: “Did I just watch a war between a human and a bird?”
What Followers Are Saying
Because the world loves unexpected antics, the creator didn’t stop there. A dedicated Instagram account now holds the front seat for future updates: new encounters, shiny feathers, and even a Game‑Boosting Cheering Squad. Fans are working hard, calling it “hardcore” and it’s literally the most engaging content in the ‘gaming/curiosity’ niche.
Behind the Scenes
“It’s like a real‑life game of vocal karaoke—only with a bird that actually knows the song—” one observer commented. The cherry on top: SafeEntry-themed game crowdsourcing and the potential sequel, as teased by the original creator.
Food for Thought
So while you’re tempted to play the game (just one click away on the platform) or follow the Instagram for more improbable animal cameos, remember: the next contender could be sniffing for a crispy bacon scent. The universe, after all, can’t guarantee the bird’s next vocal victory.
Stay tuned, and let’s see if there’s a chance for a final duet. Will humanity win this battle, or will the Asian koel continue its lyrical dominion? Only time—and the internet—will tell.
