That was fun. I love the overall concept. That coins as life is a new thing to me, it adds risk of losing in exchange for better income. I got cocky and spent more upgrade on wave, got surprised by the blazing fast golden chicken and that made me lost.

I found some problematic stuff in the map like the left fence near the road and the roof collision of shop are blocking the way when I want to move the net down. But maybe it was intended.

The pixal art graphics is lovely and consistent. The sounds are good but it plays louder when catching multiple chickens at once. The music in title is charming and those bark part are cute. Unfortunately there is no music in the gameplay that would add up to the vibe as we play. Nevertheless, great job!

I see this entry has low rating, people are missing out some good entries in terms of gameplay and design.

Thank you for playing and for the valuable feedback! I'm glad you liked the game. Should've deleted that left fence and tweaked the shop collider so players can catch the chickens more easily. By the way, I used the 'coins as life' concept exactly because of what you just experienced πŸ˜†so that the players would spare some coins in case a few chickens escaped.

Nice looking game! but I think initial start delay should be decreased to 3 seconds instead of 10 and chickens are too fast for catching all of them at once. But it was fun!

I forgot to change the start delay before exporting the game πŸ˜… Really appreciate you playing and giving feedback!

Fun game! quite unforgiving with only one life though! the upgrades give it an extra touch

Developer

It’s meant to be a little unforgiving so it stays fun ;) Thanks for playing!

Fun game! Catching chickens was satisfying but i felt like i couldnt buy the upgrade to the left without missing an entire wave

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! My tip is to upgrade your speed first so you can move around and upgrade other attributes more quickly

Those dang chickens are too fast! 

Developer

They get faster as each wave passes :D
