Very click intensive game, wondering if adding something like a combo counter (that drops when you kill an egg/etc) might have made it more intense/etc.
Sore hand, but I managed to keep it going for a while :).

Those were some weirdly satisfying egg-laying noises. I liked how clicking on the eggs cracks them and costs you time, so it was a balancing act between having enough eggs to produce lots of chickens to add more time, and not having so many eggs that you're at risk of cracking them a bunch. I got into a groove where for I while I was basically always at 30 seconds left......and then I accidentally clicked an egg and that was a run-ending mistake. Oops. It was probably for the best - my wrist was getting sore from chasing chickens around with a trackpad, and while the game was fun in its simplicity, after that long I was getting a little bit bored xD (I ended up scoring 277 on that run.)
Anyway, what a weird and neat little game!

UnderAchieverVery weird, but a neat idea. Didn't think I was gonna get as into as I did after figuring it out from a very failed round. Simple, but fun to having to carefully click fast

Input To ActionThis feels like a Wario Ware mini game or something strange you would find as an easter egg in a Japanese game. Really weird and creative!

Treasure HuntedHonestly, the idea of swapping the roles of eggs and chicken made me a bit skeptical... And apparently for no reason, because yes, it did swap these roles, but it made it in an actually meaningful way! Eggs laying chickens instead actually leads to interesting consequences!
The premise of the game is pretty funy, but the game makes the best out of this premise! Great job at making this! I enjoyed this a lot!

CaverseI have to say that this is the weirdest concept of all the games in the jam so far, but in a good way.
I got a score of 50.
I think there's something weird going on with your RNG function becuase egs that spawn at the same time will move in identical ways.

Beware of the bunnyInteresting concept! Liked the looks and the sounds as well. Also the small score feedbacks are a nice touch.
