Description
Urbex Chicken is a parodic horror game. Mixed with exploration and a goal to resolve/understand the story by yourself

Humans have been on the downfall for a long time now and two chicken decide to leave the uncosy but secure hen house they sit in to take on a grand adventure and explore the wild and urban world around them.

You'll face classic "horror gameplay" situations but it's always goofy, funny and wacky... I mean, two chicken :p

The soundtrack I made is supposed to make the player feel the absurdity and fun of controlling our two terrorised chicken on their adventure. First, they'll be scared for no reason, at all ^^.
They'll start to discover creepy murders between humans and realise what they where used for before humanity downfall.
Then, maybe, they'll discover some ability to do "dangerous" things themselves, and avenge...

Message from the artist(s)
Songs :

1 - Could be the Menu Title screen
I imagined a short video playing while game is loading. You could see the two chicken going on exploration, having cartoonesque interactions with environement. Meeting angry human survivors trying to kill them for food. Dicovering mass poduction food sites and chicken coop.
Then on the breakdown towards the end of the song : SUNGLASSES, THUG ATTITUDE, AKIMBO GUN, and our chicken go rampage !! ^^

2 - In relation to song 4, It represents the boring and slow hen house life they are used to know. It is supposed to feel wacky but a bit uncomfortable so you want to go outside and explore. (it loops while you're at home, this is the place you come back to after each exploration)

3 - This is for a specific "dungeon" or "area". You get more creepy vibes, but still, the game is fun so I tried to keep both vibes. Loopable too.
(I originally planned more ambiant "dark" songs but changed direction during composition)

4 - So you're back to the HQ/Hen House after unlocking some traumatic/important event.
The place feels familiar but it's like it's broken? Something changed inside, the vision and meaning of it too.
After that specific event you're "home/rest song"" goes from 2 to 4.

5 - This one could work for different things. It has elements from the Home theme and lean more towards action.
It also feels more powerful so good for when our chicken will overcome their fears.

6 - Bonus for fun ^^
