I love the application of theme! Especially with the headliner to explain that every chicken is built to scale irl. Reminds me of duck life in a good throwback way. It's a bit difficult on easy to stay in one position from the chicken nuggets T_T Otherwise, I love the art style and game idea a lot :D
Very cute art style! I found even the easy mode tough, probably because of the other chickens' AI being constantly a bit too aggressive, but I understand that balancing this requires a bunch of time and this is a 4-day jam. Regardless, very clever idea!
I don't know how to explain this, but the whole game itself looks like chicken and I love it. ♥
What a fun little game! I enjoyed the challenge of trying to place second, although it always jump-scared me when two big chickens would fly from off-screen to jump on me lol. Great work!
This was a fun little game. The implementation of the theme was hilarious . Of course I didn't read the description and got killed on my first playthrough. I loved the style and who wouldn't want to be a chicken?
Very stylish! Really like the art style and overall vibe, and the gameplay is deceptively simple - I found myself ramming smaller or larger chickens out of the way even more than visiting the trough myself. A fun play, great work.
Fun arcade-like experience!
The mechanics and concept is solid enough that I can see a fleshed out version of this being a popular game :)
Great and interesting experience! This can be a super fun party game or pvp game on steam. The issue is that I can not tell which chicken I am. Will be better if there's an arrow or a differe color.
HAHAH this game is so silly I love it!! Took me a bit to figure out which chicken I'm playing as once we all started feeding. In a way I like how arcade-styled and short the gameplay is, and it's also very original in mechanics from what I've seen :) The art style and color template also really adds to the game. Oh, and one more thing-- the music!!! Woah, it really felt like a boss battle when I survived til night... it got so intense as the farmer called us chickens back in. Felt like I was ready for the slaughter. Anyways, great job on the game and finishing early as a solo dev :)
I really liked the transition effect between screens and the colour palette (:
The pixel art looks pretty good! I didn't fully understand the gameplay though.
Enjoyment⭐⭐
The gameplay is eehhh, not the best part. The concept is cool but theres not enough feedback or challenge. I found that I survived by just running away every day.
Creativity ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great concept though! Took theme a lot of people ran with (win by being bigger) and flipped it.
Style ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Username checks out! Really beautiful art, though it makes me wish there was just a bit more substance. Some more animations for the chickens perhaps.
Very creative and unique concept! I enjoy the idea of having to essentially stay in second place, though it took me a while to see that my health bar was depleting at all. Adding some indication that the player took damage would help, I think, be that audio or visual. The art style was a good quality and very consistent.
I didn't know you were doing this! Great art; loved the palette, and the higher res picks on the lose screens were amazing! It was a little confusing as to why I lost sometimes, as it would happen kind of abruptly, and some sfx would give some nice feedback for when you're getting jumped on, jumping on someone else, or eating. Great job on this game! A really polished and interesting game indeed :D
this is actually lit!! the art is epic, the idea makes a lot of sense (kinda sad tho :( ), and its executed really well! (btw really really impressive for scratch lol) epik!! :D
