That ending is priceless.... Well done, it plays well. The chicken are not to aggressive so at the end it really comes to how you control the crowd. The visuals, animations and music are great, only the SFX are missing which is a shame considered the quality level of the rest of the assets...

Edit: Just realized it was a Compo. I thought it was a jam because of how it looks. I've adjusted my scores. Double well done.

Controls are a bit frustrating. Going back to menu after losing and starting again makes the game freeze. You aren't really sacrificing if it isn't yours to begin with.

Nice graphics! Got overrun by some evil chicken before I knew what I was doing - trying again seemed to have broken the game (no chicken on 2nd try). Apart from that, nice job! :)

Quite a good game with excellent graphics! However, once the player restarts the level, the game appears to be frozen

Great looking game! Was fun to play however I quickly realised that the game can be played by just avoiding the grey chickens meaning that combat was unnecessary. Otherwise, good job!

Very fun game ! I just love the jumping dude behind the fence 😄 Nice style, great job !

Really nice game! really enjoyed it!!! Very funny, great gameplay. I'd love to see Upgrades or something like that, like you can pick up more chicken until you get hit. But the game is still really fun!

I laughed at the ending.

102 sacrfice level, where is he??? Really cool game, I love the idea and the vibe is great!

Black chicken can become a real threat after a while, if not for attacking you to block the campfire. I wish it could be played with a mouse and better attack feel and to be played slightly faster but apart from that, wonderful piece, well done!

PS: Make this a full game with co-op support ok? ;)

If you have time, come see our game

Cute. Really nice graphics. Took me a bit to realise killing the grey chickens was doing to opposite to what I wanted to do haha. Short and sweet. Love the dialog. Nice work.

This game is just perfect. There is nothing to say. The Only Down of the game is that the help Menu has to much text you could many do some pictures.(nobody wants to read a such lung text)

hungryghost 2018-12-03 17:31

Been waiting for this one! Love the visual style of the game though I kind of got attached to the chickens so didn't want to sacrifice them. Top stuff, really good fun - well done!

omercanbalandi 2018-12-03 17:55

I liked graphics.When I died and started again, my game crashed but overall it's fun stuff :).Good job!

zircon123 2018-12-03 18:17

Great graphics and gameplay. the music was good. Controls are quite frustrating especially the combat. Great game overall though!

Nice art! The shovel attack was kinda useless, couldn't get kills without getting killed. So I just ran around throwing chickens in the fire until I won :)

ale 2018-12-03 19:17

Satan? No no no. These chicken are for me.

What a fun to play game! It runs smoothly and I didn't stuck in the chickens despite not killing more than 5 of them! I first tried it and it feels so gooood! I've got the sense as though I made it through a very difficult and chaotic game although I was not supposed to, so great balance! Well done!

lorenz 2018-12-04 00:17

Funny Game! :D

nettleflap 2018-12-04 02:50

I like the visuals more than the game I think. It was pretty short and repetitive. Actually didn't kill any gray chickens till the end and finished it in second try :D Nice try but not very innovative or special.

benburgh 2018-12-04 03:20

Really goofy game!

mtanton 2018-12-04 07:06

Really fun game! The grey chickens were so slow though that I completely ignored them and just won with green chickens haha.

I'm a sucker for low poly

christina-antoinette-neofotistou 2018-12-06 04:25

OK this is fun, and the graphics are amazing. Very very well-done, and congrats for finishing all this on time!

designernap 2018-12-06 16:08

Looks lovely and a great presentation. A Little too tricky to play for me but a great entry.

Great graphics and an interesting concept that is well in line with the theme. Nice to use the chickens as projectiles. It's quite difficult not to get mobbed (or to crash out for another reason like health, tho the message is always mobbing...) The keyboard controls are quite awkward IMHO. It might be good to rethink the controls and do some more balancing, then definitely worth developing further.
