Haha.. awesome! ^^

phnxphire 2013-04-29 21:51

That was pretty nice. I found myself excited while trying to cross.

entity2d 2013-04-30 15:22

Funny game :D

clavus 2013-04-30 15:26

That was pretty fun. It'd be nice if the chicken had some kind of shadow so you could see where it'd land.

cinnamonmelonpig 2013-04-30 15:27

cool concept, I can really the minimalism in it! I was a bit annoyed that the mouse rotates the camera tho.

hello23 2013-04-30 15:36

This is pretty nice. The music is interesting and I have never played a similar game. I could not cross the first bridge with the snow, I guess it is supposed to be hard.

matthias_zarzecki 2013-04-30 16:54

Ha, this is a great idea. There is a lot of fun in going through all the different variations.

haversack 2013-04-30 16:57

Fun! Would love to see more levels and for the camera on the mouse to be disabled :) I accidentally hit my mouse while playing and the camera freaked for a bit.

garethiw 2013-04-30 17:08

Charming game, left me wishing there were more levels!

ahm99 2013-04-30 17:39

This game is pretty cool. You did a good job :)

purplescape 2013-04-30 17:53

This was a very fun game. I didn't think I was going to get past that ice level! Good work!

porglezomp 2013-05-01 02:05

That was hilarious, really enjoyed it.

stromchin 2013-05-01 08:23

Very nice overall. I love games that use physics a lot.

captainkraft 2013-05-01 15:26

Your website was down when I wanted to play :/

greenpixeldev 2013-05-01 15:27

You've taken a single, simple concept (why did the chicken cross the bridge? ;D) and managed to throw in enough variation to keep the game fun and interesting! Great use of physics! :D Good job!

hypp 2013-05-01 17:02

Great one! Cool concept, truly minimal!

minionstudios 2013-05-01 23:51

Strange one... Somehow relaxing and undefinable.

john_conder9 2013-05-01 23:55

Absolutely loved it. The only complaint I have is that it didn't have more content, I started to play through it twice before I remembered the first few levels were kind of boring. But, it would have been super cool if there were a lot of levels and more like the last level. Did I mention I loved it?

leginar 2013-05-02 02:16

Pretty good! I chuckled when I finished the game.

nxsverigmail-com 2013-05-02 02:22

Pretty awesome! I had a lot of fun. A few weird physics things but fine for a game jam. Good work!

moomoo112 2013-05-02 03:46

i rather liked the physics you had for the bridge pieces, especially for the last levels

monxcleyrproductions 2013-05-02 04:00

I'll echo what a few have mentioned in that I was hoping it had more levels. What was there was fun, if a bit too easy. Good job!

whitetigle 2013-05-02 08:50

Nice game. A little bit short though.

Just a thought : even if the physics engine works well, like in many games using physics nowadays, I fail to see what it really adds to the gameplay :)

Anyway, well done :)

kddekadenz 2013-05-02 15:56

The game's size is huge D: Also the performance is veeeery bad. I had ~3 FPS.

thecze 2013-05-02 16:11

That was really fun to play. Good job on the levels.

zkenshin 2013-05-02 16:11

@kddekadenz Hello, we're sorry to hear you had such severe framerate issues with our game. If you would like, you could share your computer specs and we could try to see if there is anything we can improve on for future iterations?

ericthecooldude 2013-05-02 16:13

Hmm, I didn't really enjoy it. The jumping was inconsistent which often kept my jumps from registering. Probably should've been a GetButton instead of a GetButtonDown. Aside from that it's very unoptimized and the graphics look pretty bad. And what were you trying to do with the audio? It's annoying.

almax27 2013-05-02 18:04

Very good use of physics, the sound changing as I moved the camera was rather annoying though :D

queader 2013-05-02 18:19

Nice, very nice! ;)

redwater 2013-05-04 13:20

Chickenballs! Cool how much variation you could draw out of it! Nicely done.

cmjd 2013-05-04 14:05

It's a pretty cool game! I loved the music and sounds that played whilst trying to get across the bridge, nice work!

pabloalexandre31 2013-05-04 20:31

Fun game!

smilingcat 2013-05-06 03:23

Well, at first I thought, "Wow, this is easy." Then the bridge started flying apart and I peed myself a little. Then after I had gotten used to that, angry meteors arrived!

Great job!

taro 2013-05-06 04:08

I really liked this game. The controls could use some tweaking, but dang!

nimblegorilla 2013-05-06 05:09

Cool idea to take a minimal concept and flesh it out with some fancy graphics and a bunch of obstacles. The music is pretty catchy too. One minor nitpick is that I would have liked a countdown timer at the beginning of each level instead of seeing the level but being unable to move until it says "Go".

yellowlemming 2013-05-06 05:28

I'm surprised a game about an odd looking chicken crossing a bridge could be so fun

kyyninen 2013-05-06 18:09

Needs more bridges ASAP

szedouu 2013-05-07 18:37

awesome game :D best bridge-cross style game :D

fadobo 2013-05-08 10:29

Fun game overall. The jumping is a bit unresponsive some time (maybe it's missing feedback when you are actually touching the ground)

zener 2013-05-08 12:04

This game is pretty fun, the mechanics are very clear and the tribal music adds to the mood. Well done!

rafaelsales 2013-05-08 21:07

Funny game. It's really simple and fun. I believe that mouse could be avoided to simplify even more the controls. Congrats anyway!

finefin 2013-05-09 11:31

haha! nice game. great audio, graphics and gameplay. good job :)

enzo 2013-05-11 05:48

Do you know that scene in action movies (and cartoons) where someone is trying to cross a rope bridge, but then someone cuts it, and then they have to run almost vertically? The final level is pretty much that (except with less success, because of me, haha). Good variations on the theme!

psenfilip 2013-05-11 16:43

Interesting concept and use of physics. I like the music - don't really know why but it sounds interesting to say the least.

Too bad the controls are unresponsive and overall performance is not that good on a relatively modest 2yrs old laptop.

lightnarcissus 2013-05-12 04:39

Simple game but pretty fun and occasionally a little funny too. :D

sebastian 2013-05-15 18:01

I wish I didn't have to wait for the (very low quality) go text to appear every level/death.
Otherwise its a pretty creative idea that I could see being very fun with some polish and a lot more levels.
I made it across in 126 seconds with 6 deaths.

xanjos 2013-05-16 21:34

Probably the best bridge crossing simulator I have ever played. The music created a very nice mood and the physics was pretty cool.

gremlin 2013-05-17 04:08

Man, that chicken is hard to control.

martin_monosys 2013-05-17 22:34

Nice, but a bit short... and some of it felt random... Not bad, had an african/jungle style vibe to it! :)

codexus 2013-05-18 15:10

Pretty cool game, I liked how it looked like the same bridge getting worse with time right until the last level.

paulsinnett 2013-05-20 16:58

I love the music.
