The extra detail that the chickens are named is a great addition. 

Great job.

Submitted

Definitely one of the best. I'm totally hooked on this game.

Why did the farmer chuck the chicken across the road?

To become a billionaire.

I’m clearly in the wrong business.

Fun game and cool use of the theme! I'm absolutely devastated every time my chickens die to a car instead of getting cooked alive for my financial benefit :)

YAAY Great game, got me very involved x)

very fun to play I sent a lot of chicken flying away deliberately so they could escape and they now live a better life.

(still had to burn some to win but shh)

Super fun. Also had to think of chickens, but I love your interpretation and what you did with it.

the chickens were on death row dw

really addictive incremental. Also well polished!

This is super fun. The sounds are great. I lost my first golden chicken to a car and actually said "Oh no!" out loud. Silly, the chicken sounds are great.

Probably the most fun game so far, and very addictive. Nice and thought-through game mechanics like the bigger chickens that give more money are of course also harder to throw through the cars on the street.

Hi!  I enjoyed flinging a couple of chickens across the road and collecting some money!  I am experiencing a bug possibly?  The title never goes away and I'm not able to progress to what your 2nd screenshot depicts?  Am I missing anything?  Cool artwork nice job!

edit:  dev fixed it by rolling back; game works great now

Developer(+1)

yes apparently the latest build was bugged so thank you for telling me, I rolled back to the latest working version so if you would like to try the game again I would appreciate it!

Submitted

Glad you were able to roll it back!  I had a great time playing and chuckled to myself once I realized all the chickens names started with C.  That's a nice joke in there.  I think the very beginning is perhaps a tad slow and then the mid game perhaps a bit too quick, but I had a ton of fun with this one.  Thanks for making and sharing!  Always glad to see another chicken and road game in the mix with this theme XD

I do like that feeling when you've got a big chicken and it's important that it gets cooked and you take an extra moment to be careful with your shot.  That's a good feeling and can be hard to create, so well done!
