So i got one question for you, how did you place the same texture next to eachother, did you make your own grid system as an editor extension?
Also i miss the source code link :(.
Game is quite decent, only thing i dislike is how hard it is to make the jumps, the jumps are quite hard and have an low error margin.
That was in level 1 though, didn't beat the first level.

I didn't use a grid system. I used vertex snapping. In Unity this is hold down the V key. When you slice up a sprite sheet, you can pick where it is sliced. I will add the source code now. I have a github account.

Pretty good game. The controls bother me a bit, but thats just my opinion.
Dope little game! Real nice art and very easy to pick up and play. Good work for just starting out making games!
A little choppy for me, but quite fun!!
the jump is uncomfortable.. after all it's funny. I love how die the chicken
Cool little game. It is really hard to make jumps though. GUI was cut off a little, but still good overall. Good graphics, even if my framerate little choppy. Also good music.

Considering that you're new to making games, this is really great. I am one of those people like to jump with the W key in 2d games, it could easily be done so that both the W and space keys make the character jump.
It was kinda fun how, when the chicken/egg died, it became it's food version.
Awesome graphics and bumping music. However, the controls feel pretty constricting and sluggish. Good work :D

It seems like a lot of people didn't like me using space bar for jump and would have preferred to have that and the W key and possibly another key. Lesson learned. I'll try to keep good controls in mind for the future LDs. Thanks for the constructive criticism.

Nice concept. That song reminds of.. lady madonna!
I became an egg various times, it was fun.

hahah!! Love the sprites and animations for chick!! :D
Nice entry dude!
good graphics and music, but I hate when I die and I get taken right back to the main menu, controls are a little awkward. seems like a game i'd play for a while, I got chickens at home.
chicken or egg? simply and clever. A bit frustrating to control making the fun factor drop but you've done incredibly well overall for a beginner

Chicken is a bit creepu, But it's good, tastes like chicken overall. And the levels are well designed for the little time you have. Congratz

*becomes cooked egg/ chicken* Haha!
Tbh, I actually didn't even finish the first level as I got too frustrated with dying all the time. :c
The music really brings this game up a notch =)

Controls are a bit "floaty", makes it hard to precise and it's a bit frustrating. Other than that, good job on the graphics and coding. Nice game :)

Fun but pretty hard first level :)
Game is not bad. My only critique is that the view makes some jumps extra difficult.

This is Chicken Souls! Damn. I wish I had named it that.
The white fonts are a bit confusing, and the jump is unforgiving with the player.
But the game is fun and has a good humor, Nice work!
Nice twist on the music. The controls were a little clunky sometimes but its very good overall!
Cute lil game. A bit hard to jump on big chicken mode but funny, specially when you die as a fried egg. Audio is lovely.

Very good for a first attempt. The graphics and sound are all solid. There is a bit of a bump while walking, I think possibly because of a gap between floor block objects. The chicken double jump was a bit fiddly, I couldn't do it reliably.
Nice game. Cute take on the shape shifting theme, some of the jumping was tricky but I got the hang of it after a while. Good work!

it's a good start, and you finish a game!
I think it's discouraging to restart at the first level...
Cute game, the jumping mechanics are too difficult though. Couldn't make it past level 2.

Great Game, The physics of the jump could be a little more "dynamic" but except from that really good entry (great music by the way !!). Good job

A decent platformer for your first entry, good job overall!
Except for level 3. I spent like tens of tries cursing for that one platform to come down.
Good job for your first entry, next time, plan your jumps to see the destination platform avoiding jump of faith. :)

Why oh why did you put platforms outside of camera view? :(
But you have finished the game and it looks really nice! Congratz! :)

Funny :D Also a bit hard ! Congrats on finishing a game, starting out is the most difficult :)
The camera could maybe go a bit ahead of the chicken, so it'd be easier to see where you're jumping. Sometimes you even had to make a leap of faith, since you couldn't see where you're going :)
Also, OUCH on the level ending sound :D
For learning 50% of what you know during Ludum Dare, good job! As others have said, the movement were quite tricky to master. I really like the barn sprite for the end of the level. Good work!
Cool entry, keep working on this. Its a great start

Funny death sprites :)
Had some troubles with clunky jumping as the chicken just stopped all of its upwards momentum when it collided to platform walls. Nice, cheerful game overall.
Hey! Congratulations on yout first jam!
Good use of the theme on this platformer.
The music fits the game art. Good job!
Cute little game with a funny dead transformations! :-)
Keep up the good work!
