hahaha... i like the chicken's face. don't quite understand the game though. i feel like i was walking, turned into a plant, changed back, then beat the game? haha

Would've liked more interaction with the light, enjoyed the concept and excellent use of theme!

The chicken-sprite is funny/cute haha. Not much in terms of gameplay though; just a single item to collect and then you win.

There is kinda little of a "game" in here but the sprites look good and walking animation is fluid and funny. Good luck with your concept. I hope you will work on it because, I'm a beliver in this crazy chicken-plant transformation game.

@andreish, @zhelding, @seansmeedcomposer -- I can't take credit for the art. They were creative commons assets that came through my software. Thanks for reminding me I forgot to add the credits. I am putting them on the game page now.

@diler I will probably tweak the glow effect on the gem and crystal, though I do not know how much I will do beyond that. If I do decide to make a postgame version with more platforms and crystals, I would probably make the plant transformation last 5 seconds, since ten seconds is a long time to be stuck standing still...

This is a super cute game idea and it goes very well with the game! I do hope you decide to work on it outside of the Jam

I love the idea, and I think when fleshed out it would be great. Unfortunately it looks like you fell victim to a lack of time. :(

Interesting idea, looks promising.

The concept was definitely interesting, would love to see where you go with it! Personally, I didn't mind the waiting, but it would've been nice to have a timer or some kind of indicator to predict it better

@adam-gallina I think do recall wishing I had time to research adding a visible timer while making the game. Thank you for reminding me. It is definitely something my game engine is capable of doing.

I had fun as a chicken. I did not have as much fun as a plant :(. I enjoyed the sound design :)
