Fun game with a lot of humor!

The fact that in the end you can slide in a form of a fat king make me laugh :)

Thank you! The end with the king moving was not supposed to happen XD but we didnt have time to correct it. However I'm glad it made you laugh :D

Smart way to approach an art style for a jam game. I didn't expect to swindle people in a game that looked like this.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)

Fun animatic style.  Music loop is slightly repetitive. Humorous dialog.  Subtle use of the theme. I like it!

Nice idea and art style! Felt like the gameplay rewarded the chicken way out of just always going back to your chess tho.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! We appreciate it very much ✲

Really loved the art style and concept, I felt that the music was excellent but got a bit repetitive after a while. I also really liked the day/night cycle.

Great work!

Developer

Thank you!

I liked the concept a lot, the idea of scaling but getting punished by greed.
There was some exploits, such as pressing e all the time during the steal sections. But great work for 48 hours
