I see our games share some DNA...;-)
I've gotta admit: you did that street beautifully! the fog and the low camera angle really make it freightening! but boy-oh-boy, life as a zombie chicken ain't no walk in the park.

Developer

Thank you for giving it a try :D On my way to try your game too^^

I really enjoyed it! The fourth wall breaking dialogue, the chicken turning into a zombie at one point and many other things genuinely made me cackle. The game is a little tough, but in a good way. 

I'd say you could improve the jump a tad, as right now it feels quite floaty, so it's really tough to predict when it's going to land. 

It's a great entry and I had a good laugh playing it. Great job and congrats on succesfully finishing your jam entry!

Thanks a lot for playing the game and for the precious feedback :D

Yeah the jump needs some fixing, many people complained about how hard the river part is, haha. I will definitely check it out and come up with a way that would make it feel better and more predictacle. Thanks again^^

Awesome game!

Was laughing a lot, great humor! Really funny gameplay, challenging, but after death it was too hard for me, is there is any ending?

Music is fitting great for that genre of game, but sounds of chicken dying were very loud, maybe make them a little quiter. That character with dialog is awesome, could be implemented in actual game world!

But, overall it's a wonderful game, enjoyed it greatly! Would love to see your other game in the future!

Thanks a lot for trying it out and for the feedback :D

Currently there's no real ending apart from the game congratulating you for beating it, I didn't have enough time to make a proper ending unfortunately. And yeah I should have tweaked the sounds to make them better, will definitely fix it after the jam ends, and add new sounds for car engine, footsteps, etc.

Fun game. It was a little challenging at first but once I got the hang of staying in between the lanes, I managed to get through it all. The scripted ending made me laugh

Developer

Thanks a lot for giving it a try :D Haha yeah the death was a tad bit too forced I didn't have time to make it look more logical

Nice game, you could’ve add a horn sound to prevent the player. It was funny to hear the hen. And one thing is that, I’ve been trapped by going beyond the area haha. Crossing the river was hard for me. Nice work anyway! :)

Developer

Thanks :D Yeah I planned on adding more sounds like horns and vehicles engines, and footsteps on grass and asphalt, but I had no more time left so I just left it as is. Will definitely add a lot more polish after the voting phase ends though :) Haha yeah you're not allowed to go too far away cause you might see the void xD

I liked the game, it was a challenge. I did not beat it (due to lack of skill) but I will continue trying! One thing I noticed is the movement speed on the ground vs. in the air is hard to get used to. Timing the jumps was a bit awkward due to the far decreased movement speed while in air. I can totally see this being intentional to make the game harder, but from a player's perspective it is a bit odd. Overall really well done! It was fun and exciting to play!

Developer

Thanks for trying it out and for the feedbacks :) I myself haven't beaten it yet either, I kinda suck at it, haha. Yes I decreased mid-air speed on purpose, because the player could just jump over the rivers in one sprint jump if not. It's a way of somehow forcing the player to jump over the logs in order to cross the river. But yeah maybe the decrease is a little bit too much, I'll check on it. Thanks again :)

Pretty fun, I beat it in 4 tries >:)

Developer

Thank you for trying it out. And great job for beating the game, you rock! :D
