I went to try it to see if it was fun and keep playing like 15 minutes. Nice visuals and overall fun.
Thank you so much for playing😊 I'm glad you liked it!👍
A very fun game! Awesome work mate!
Thank you so much mate! 😊 I'm glad you liked it! 👍
I love your profile picture ❤️🔥it looks awesome mate! 😁
The game looks, plays and sounds amazing!
The only thing I would have liked is a harder level.
Thank you so much! 😊 Yeah! a MUST!!
Thanks again👍
Amazing job! My favourite entry of the jam so far. The game feels great to play and the presentation is so polished. I love all the details that you put into the game animations and UI. You managed to do a lot as a solo developer, even with the help of AI. Great work! 😄
Wow, favorite entry?! That is Amazing! thank you so much! 😄
I spent a lot of time on this! the animations and UI, so I’m really glad you like it!
Thanks again for playing and for the kind words! 🐔
Nice idea to add different retro styles!
Thank you. I hope you liked it!
Buy the way, your game looks awesome!👍
Fun little side scroller! Reminds me a lot of the old days of Geometry Dash! I always love a good rhythm game!
Thank you so much! 😊 Geometry Dash was a big inspiration, so that means a lot!
I'm struggling with the grabing the hook bit,.. (on Normal)
Im holding the E key, the thing to grab highlights, but nothing happens. As no one else in comments mentions it, maybe I've just not got the knack :P. any tips?
Nice animations and set up, and speed of camera scroll and upcoming dangers is good.
Hi, thanks for playing and thanks for asking 😊
When you reach the hooks there will be a circle guide in air! Jump inside it the hold E!
Please let me know how it goes! Thanks again 👍
ahh thanks for that. Went to learning mode as well, and that helped as hit the checkpoint just before the E mechanic, so could quickly try it a couple of times until I got it. cleaned those 2 levels, then got to the one with the Bat (X) and didn't understand that one :D. More help please! :D
OK.. thanks for that! for the bat you need to jump on it then press jump again!
That's it! thanks for asking and if there is anything more, please ask 😊👍
Good luck
nice animations haha i love the animations that makes the game funny
Thank you so much! 😄 II’m really glad the animations made you laugh.
By the way, your game is amazing! Good luck 👍
Equal parts fun, addictive and terrifying! A thoroughly polished game with loads of fun content and extra modes. Although I fear that theme will be haunting my dreams tonight... Highly recommended!
Duuuude! this is the best summary I could ask for! 😂 Thank you so much for playing my game 😊
Wish you all the best 😊👍
Great game! Loved the look and especially the humour of it. I wasn't very good at actually playing but I did a number of rounds and enjoyed myself. Very good submission.
Thank you so much! 😊 So happy it landed! And no worries about the difficulty, Normal mode is tough. If you want a gentler run, try EASY on the title screen: same places, a friendlier path. Thanks again! 🐔
Hello,
The graphics are amazing and fit very well together, the sound effects and music were good, the intro screen felt almost professional in terms of art, I also liked the intro story and animations, you did very well, for the gameplay I wasn't too sure if it was me being bad, but I couldn't reach any checkpoint, so I had to start at the beginning every time, I also liked that it moved itself, I only had to worry about the jumps and hooks, very good entry! :)
Thank you so much! 😊 your msg really made my day❤️!
Oh about the check points! Normal mode is tough and in this kind of games its noramal to die and repeat😅 Each level has a lantern checkpoint about halfway, so once you pass it you’ll restart from there. If you’d like a gentler run, try EASY on the title screen: same places, a friendlier path. I’ve also just updated the camera so it’s calmer and you can see the spikes coming earlier, which should help too.
Thanks again for playing and for the kind words! 🐔
I absolutely love the art style! The pixel art is incredibly detailed and immersive, while keeping that lighthearted, playful charm that reminds me so much of classic indie games from the 90s. The music is fantastic too, perfectly matching the visuals and really making you feel like you're playing on an old-school console. Everything comes together to create such a lovely retro atmosphere. Definitely an experience I'd recommend!
Duuude, thank you so much! 😊 “Classic games from the 90s” this made my day❤️!
Great game and pure chicken :D Really got hooked and needed to finish it while getting frustrated to always start over after each mistake :D
I really enjoyed playing it, nice work!
🐔 Poor chickens 😂 Thank you so much for playing.
By the way, I really love your game! Amazing look and feel! great job 👍
Sorry i cant play your game... its so good i feel bad for the chickens each time i die ahah
nah for real gg it reminds me of geometry dash.
Hahaha, the poor chickens 😂 Thank you so much for playing! Geometry Dash was a big inspiration, so that means a lot. Thanks again ☺️
amazing gameplay and polished graphics.
Thank you so much! Really glad you enjoyed it 😊
Amazing graphics and SFX, and so many chickos has been sacrificed to some jumps XD.
The camera after a long jump can be tricky for the first time, I can suggest maybe if the character so much time in air the camera can go back and have a wide angle to include the ground.
Overall amazing game, Great work!!
Thank you so much! 😊 Your camera idea was spot on, so I built it: the camera now zooms out a bit when you're in the air for a long time and looks ahead for the ground. It's live in today's update. Give the big drops another try, and fewer chickos should get sacrificed 🐔😂
(But honestly I still feel something is off… must do more testing)
A full fun polished game good job, reminded me of the music levels in rayman origins. loads of content to for a jam game, Solid work
Really polished release. Good job.
I loved the little rage bait parts where the spring would throw you in to the spikes.
Had just tiny issues with the camera lingering after jumps too high so when I landed a jump and there were spikes ahead I had no time to react to them after I saw them so had to just memorize the part and jump without seeing basically. Other than that a really good entry for the jam!
Thank you so much! glad you enjoyed it ☺️
And thanks for the camera note. You're the third player to mention it, so it's definitely going to the top of my post-jam list: the camera will look further ahead after high jumps, so you can see the spikes coming!
Thanks again for playing and for the great feedback! 👍
Quick update: the camera fix is live! After high jumps and springs it now keeps the floor in view, so you can see the spikes in time. No more memorizing 😄 Thanks again for the great feedback!
Love it. Good old platformer with really cool "lets roll on a chicken" vehicle :D Well done!
Your game is just excellent. I normally don't stay and play game jam games too long but yours had me hooked. See what I did there.
Graphics are top notch. Music and sound effects are perfect. I only played on EASY but I still had some trouble.
All in all a great play. Thanks for entering the jam so we could play your great game.
😂 “hooked”, I see what you did there! 🪝🐔 Thank you so much, this made my day!
Glad you liked it! And thanks for the note about EASY still being tricky. If you have time tell me which part gave you trouble? any advice so I can improve it! I’m planning a post-jam update to make it friendlier.
Thanks again for playing! 😊
