You're not wrong, MooRooster, the game would be a lot more fun with save/load. The code is even in there, just not enabled. The reason for this is that the game is not supposed to be fun or encouraging. It's meant to be at least frustrating but hopefully enraging. That's why Pavel designed the map to have both escalating difficulty and penalty for failure. If you *really* want to save, you can run it in a virtual machine and take regular snapshots, but that wouldn't be Rage Chicken, just Chicken :)
Yeah, we kinda had to embrace the terrible graphics to get it done in time. Among our other sins are rotating and arbitrarily rescaling pixel art. We're working on the sequel right now, we'll be taking more care over the graphics although the gratuitously large (4x4) pixels are here to stay. If you're interested in alpha testing hit me up on the TairaGames discord sometime.
I had to make some changes to the Linux build, so it was taken down for a day. It should be back up now! Please let me know if you have any problems getting it to run.
That's a good idea putting all the executables in one zip, it's how I like to download games, though it may be confusing to less technically proficient players.
