Had a good time trying to plan my route for the best bale placement, laughed at those chickens that just wouldn't get out of that one corner so I could harvest please. the tractor hit sfx and vfx go a bit too hard compared to the rest of the sfx especially, made me jump in my chair and shout each time I hit something. overall though I had a very good time!
The game starts really peaceful but I like how it becomes like a minefield quickly. Genuinely got startled when I got hit by a chicken and it exploded with the loud sound lol
Simple but fun! I like how the bundles being left behind create a little obstacle course as you go. Dodging the chickens gets pretty intense at the end, but I managed to pull it off. Also, dear lord was I not prepared for that chicken jumpscare! Overall, nice work!

Best 100% time 117s! Really appreciate the aesthetic cohesion. The chickens aren't so predictable so it seems like an important tactic is to clear out the upper right side early before it's filled with chickens? Overall a fun time.
Prior to running the game I noticed there were a LOT of files and I had to scroll to find the EXE. Could be handy to put all the game files in a subfolder of the zip, then place a shortcut or batch file to run the game? The minor-est of minor pain points, I know :P
Pretty fun and challenging. I managed to beat it in 92 seconds, but unfortunately, I massacred one chicken. Overall, the game is very enjoyable.
I have never been so nervous of chicken in my life. I could feel my hand shaking when trying to sneak near them. Simple but fun; great mood and comfortable controls. good job!
That was Fun !

Very fun and addictif
I like the idea of the game. Sadly i didnt make it to 100% I tried clearing the farm column by column but at the end chickens got me :sweat_smile:
Great and original gameplay. Anyway, we have to admit that chickens are stronger than harvesters :)
This game is awesome !! It's really really fun and as my daughter said "the best game we have tested until now"

Very fun game! I liked the idea where you can kilo the chickens or run into the walls and it becomes crazy over time! the only thing i would say is it would be nice if there was some more juice but overall its good! 4/5
mmm gliadin
The art and sound effects are wonderful, really reminiscent of older platforms!
Also bonus points for also doing a combine harvester game where you can drive into animals 😁 I had fun!
101s Is my best time. Loved the game it really fits the theme. The death animation is great. Simple to understand and the concept was well executed. The sounds were a bit annoying after some time but fitting generaly. Art was nice and Simple still great.
sound fx are supergood and it goes well with the Lo-fi atmosphere, if there was 1 more enemy type i think it would help alot!
Really nice concept as well as look & feel, polished to the point, great job! These chickens give me anxiety though! :D
Very nice game idea! Feels very much like an old arcade game and its really fun!
What a fun game! It feels very polished. The effect of dying makes me jump everytime haha. Some feecback:
- I love the graphics and sound design. - The scoring system is very well layed out and I like the font. Is it a font? Or your handwriting? - I don't like how I need to install your game. Usually I skip games where I need to install, but I made an exception for yours
Edit: what an unusual choice to create graphics in TIC80 and to export them, does that have an advantage I don't know about? I'm curious :-)
@Wouter52 Thanks for the feedback! The font menu is from Dafont. The ingame font is drawn by me. Regarding the export from tic80: I'm not an artist and I found very easy to draw 8x8 sprites with limited colors. The tic80 is perfect for that. I understand for the download but I wanted to use Monogame for this one and it doesn't support web.
@rockford ah, like that! I understand, a limited set of colors is a good way to make good looking textures
The downloading bit I don't mind. I just extract it in my downloads folder and delete it afterwards. Your game needs to be installed, which gives me much less controll over what is done to my system. That is the part I don't like :-) I've seen similar comments from LDers in the past couple of years, and as this is your first entry, I thought I would mention it :-)
@wouter52 Good point for the installer. I now propose with or without. Actually I changed for an installer because some people complained to have to seek for the executable in the archive :) Just to mention it's not my first entry, I did 3 more LD in the past but on the former website.
Really fun little arcade game- reminded me a lot of Dig Dug. I absolutely love the chicken sprites, and how you got them so cute given the resolution. :D Great work!
Cool game! After few tries I made it in 97s so not bad :) Maybe different types of animals that had different pattern to movement would be a nice addition... Anyway, good job with the game!
