''[=BirdGut=]'' is a hand-drawn, free-to-play PuzzlePlatformer released on UsefulNotes/{{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.
!!Tropes:
* BiggerOnTheInside: The bird's guts feel much larger than the bird itself.
* {{Brainwashing}}: Eaten bugs are injected with chemicals and converted into mindless drones.
* TheChosenOne: The main character is called "The Hatless One" by the leader of the resistance, for being immune to the {{Brainwashing}} serum without needing a TinfoilHat.
* EasterEgg: There's a skull hidden (or simply hard to access) in every level, and activating them all unlocks a secret bonus.
* TheGrotesque: The protagonist, a larva with wings, is seen as this by the regular bees and quickly outcast.
* LaResistance: There's a secretive group of not-brainwashed bugs that are plotting to end the bird's tyranny by destroying missiles located in its colon.
* MultipleEndings: There are three possible outcomes, dependent on [[LastSecondEndingChoice the protagonist's actions in the final room]].
* TemptingFate: 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.
* TinfoilHat: The members of LaResistance wear them to block out the brainwashing.
