Funny game, funny music.

looks pretty nice, I liked the sound effects and the graphics. The player should just move a little smaller steps so it would look like actual animation...

Simple concept but nicely executed. The chicken sounds crack me up so much haha.

Wow I love your game! This is a great example of simple mechanics done perfectly right and I played way longer than I thought I would. Definitely one of my favorites! Thanks for the game!

Well made game! Simple but really fun! The reaper chicken after you lose is great

Good: - Graphics fitting to each other - graphic style at all - decent background music - not much explanation needed to play the game - sfx

neutral: - some other mechanics would have been cool, like a boost which costs fuel or items speeding you up

bad (nitpicky): - theme not too apparent - gets a bit stale after the first few tries

Very fun game, the music is pleasant and combined with the gameplay.

It's a simple game but I enjoyed it. I even became Reaper of the Month :)

The graphics are great and the gameplay is smooth. Nicely done.

The reaper is really funny!

I very much loved your game. It was surprisingly addicting, I found myself playing for half an hour before moving on!

The game is cool! Simple and interesting mechanics. Beautiful visual. After losing a long restart, if the tractor accelerated, it would be more interesting

You managed to use the theme twice (Soul harvesting AND regular harvesting) so kudos! SOME guilt at all the blood spilt but had fun playing through and loved the comedy vibe throughout! Music works great too :)

I kept coming back to this to try and beat my score :sob: love the art and liberal use of sound effects it makes me giggle

goldenxd 2023-01-11 00:53

Great graphics and hilarious! Nice theme use and like the game overall

Really cute/funny game. I laugged out when I died and saw the chicken in the reaper costume

sn4pi 2023-01-11 01:05

The graphics look nice and it was fun to play for the first few tries :smiley: I loved to just kick the hay bales and see them sweep every living thing out of existence, haha. Your game's overall appearance had stonked if there would have been the time to add some more animations.

Guess i'm not the reaper of the month!

Simple funny game with goofy characters, love it! The chicken keeps running from me :(

Score: 12850, simple concept executed well, I liked how the haybales cleared the map where it would otherwise be cluttered and diffcult to navigate. The stats at the end are also a nice touch.

Yeah I'm the Reaper of the Month ^^ Nice game by the way ! ReaperOfTheMonth.png

renneberg 2023-01-11 09:02

Got a score of 12150. Loved the sprites and BGM!

plepletier 2023-01-11 17:03

Simple and very fun game!!!! Good work! I really like the simple movement of the animations, they really work with the overall mood of the game and the music!

globul 2023-01-11 18:24

Fun game with simple and pleasant gameplay. Well done :)

scriptmage 2023-01-11 18:32

Great game! I found it really fun that we both had a similar idea of a grim reaper hopping up and down lanes, but executed it completely differently. I never would have thought of just putting the grim reaper on a tractor, brilliant!

I love the cute little graphics and had a good laugh at the sound effects!

Great idea visually indicating the different speeds of the chickens and the scarecrows by having them face towards or away from the player.

Good job!

javasaurus 2023-01-11 20:00

Absolutely love it :) You've scoped the game very well, didn't need much extra. Actually I can summarize my experience as follows : "Pakaawk"

magicstunts123 2023-01-11 20:02

Really funny idea! Music choice is great and those chicken sounds did make me laugh :D got 9500 Pts..so no reaper of the month...but really fun game!

Killed by mighty phone 🤣

jumpirate 2023-01-12 10:45

A good small chasing game. Really fun!

vphyre 2023-01-13 04:16

Simple game, but very fun! I would spend hours playing. It is an excellent approach to the theme. The graphics are functional, and the music is good. The gameplay is pretty solid too. Good work!

Simple, but very fun! I love the "ancient device", that's a brilliant idea. Having the health pickups also increase your speed is a great and subtle way of incrementing the difficulty, too.

Took me a few tries, but I managed to get Reaper of the Month:

Very nice game, the graphics and animtions were really cute. Also, i loved the rank names at the end.
