Just plain fun
Thank you !
Very fun but very chaotic and stressful ^^” good job ^^
Thank you so much !
very clean and polished.
So hectic.
Thank you!
Ka-boom
Damm bro ! That really fun to play. i am happy to see more form india participating in game jams
nice game bro i was holding 1 chicken and running here and there , too crazy I reached 10th wave
Thanks!! Also that has now become the universal strategy now i guess..
This is a super good game, really polished with a lot of great juice. I liked all the different chicken types. However, it got so overwhelming so fast. So many new things and enemies were thrown at me that I couldn't keep track of anything. Wave 2 felt like what wave 100 should be! If the game was a bit easier, this would be totally awesome.
Thank you for playing! We kind of intended the player to feel owerehelmed by all the chaos, as compensation you can get away with protecting even just one chicken. Will definitely try adjusting the difficult if I update it though
Thanks! Glad u liked it.. and yea, the final strategy becomes grabbing a chicken and running around with it 😂
This is so cute! It starts off simple enough but gets super chaotic and overwhelming really fast. The strategy ends up being picking up a chicken and running around to make sure the last one doesn’t die lol. The enemy variety is great and adds extra challenge! I just wish there was more for the player to do to protect the chickens. Other than that good work! Nice art, audio, and chaotic gameplay. Well done!
Thanks for playing ! The players ability is certainly one of the main issues that came up, we didn't get time to add many of the other stuff we had planned so maybe we'll try fixing that in a later update
This is very charming, I liked it. The chicken sprites look so silly and funny, and the audio paired well with the theme of the game.
At the end I managed to get to wave 15 (my strategy was to hold a chicken and let the others explode lmao, worked pretty well). I don't have any particular criticism for this one as it is just a simple chaotic chicken exploding game, so good job and good luck :)
Thank you so much ! I tried to make the chickens as goofy as possible while causing the most chaos, i'm glad you liked it
cool game! the explosion animation is so good! I wish you could pick up more than one chicken since it was quite hard but it's probably my fault lol! i like the art too!
Thank you for playing ! The difficulty was meant to be a bit hard to increase the chaos, I will definitely try to adjust it in a later update
This is so good! As others have said, it's hilarious, chaotic, and very difficult! I do wish that you could pick up chickens from slightly farther away, but that might just be a skill issue tbh. Easily the funniest game I've played so far!
Thank you so much ! I'm glad you enjoyed the goofy aspect of the game. I agree the pick up could have been better, I'll improve it in an update if I do one
Splash art is a definitive highlight!
The game is SO HARD, maybe a ramp up in the beginning to allow the player to experience more chickens would be goose.
Gonna add this one to the collection
Thanks so much man ! This genuinely made my day
Excellent main menu music - felt like I was in a fancy lift. This is a great use and execution of the theme. One piece of feedback: I automatically assumed I had to kill the chickens rather than save them, and for some reason that felt better, played better, and was more fun to me! Overall GG, definitely should work on this more.
Thank you so much man, the idea for the chaos mode came from one of our devs who also felt the same way! Glad you still liked the game !
Really chaotic game! The amounts of time I have only 1 chicken left and keep holding it with my dear life. Really fun gameplay!
Thank you so much for playing ! The idea was to make the player as desperate as possible !
At first I thought the bomb chickens were the only enemies, then I saw psychic chickens, skeletons, and even cyborg from xmen lol. Super fun gameplay loop that turns chaotic incredibly fast, really enjoyed playing it
Thank you so much! We tried to add as much variety as possibl
lmao its so chaotic i love it
Thanks so much ! Chaos was what we were going for
Hey!
Awesome job! This is a fun game!
Thank you so much !
I love the concept.
It's really difficult after to keep more than 1 chicken alive later. I think the strat is to just grab a chicken and run with it.
Thank you for playing! Yea that actually is the best strat but we've altered the later stages so that after a point that doesn't work as well so you're forced to juggle between multiple chickens. Since theirs so many different types of chickens it's so interesting seeing people develop different strategies with each one.
Very funny (and hard) game! There is so much potential on it, like a silly upgrade called "Use your other hand to catch a chicken too. You have two remember?" or items like chicken food to group them in a controlled manner. Amazing job
Thank you so much, upgrades were a thing we had in mind but we didn't get enough time to properly implement. Will definitely add them if we update the game in the future!
Very impressive amount of content for a 4 day jam! and the artwork is fantastic!
Little too hard imo maybe if the farmer was a little bit faster? making it easier to chase chickens
Cool concept nevertheless
Thank you! We had considered increasing the speed acctually but removed it later after testing, maybe we'll add it back in an update after the jam!
Fun and chaotic but its hard to protect more than 1 chicken at a time. Feels like I have little control over the chickens
Thank you so much, the idea was to make it as chaotic as possible so you have to frantically run behind the chickens
