Unfortanetely the sound does not seem to work. Nice, polished well made game! Humor scores high with me. Awesome game mechanic on the spawning of the eggs. Job well done!

Unfortunately all my chickens got stuck between circles :(

The art is really nice! In terms of visuals it was nicely polished. When I was playing the chickens eventually got stuck and my score just kept increasing indefinitely, so it just became a matter of how long I could wait. I think music and sfx would really add to it too.

Really liked this game! Played a few times but still wasn't able to get even to 10000 points :)

Really great visuals! I especially like the animation on the tentacles - the way they move as separate sprites reminds me of paper mario :smile:

I also ended up with some stuck chickens that meant my score just kept on increasing.

You may think I'm crazy to say this, but the stuck chicken and eggs provided additional fun to me:

When I had 10 or more stuck in a pile, my thoughts became: "How can I loosen them up so that the whole pile comes down?"

Kinda like in Peggle, but with a way more satisfying chain reaction when it actually worked :D

Too bad there's no audio and the chickens get stuck so easy - otherwise this would be a perfect game! I think it's awesome that there's a leaderboard feature, but it's way too easy to cheese with the stuck chickens glitch. Fantastic art though! I give this game a solid :chicken: / 10

The idea is fun, and it's looking great. But like already said the game is a bit buggy.

Poor chickens... maybe the Thing is taking them to a better place. :) (Not likely...) Anyway, very solid entry! The exponential (eggs-ponential?) chicken-and-egg situation is a really fun twist on a physics-clicker like this, and it's a very fun thing to just set up and watch go. The little touches like the lighting effects and score pulsing do a lot to make things feel impactful, too. Good job!

My chickens done got stuck on me!

Very humorous game with great visuals. short and sweet.

The concepts seems like a good fun idea, sadly my chicken got stuck in the pegs. I hoped to shoot them out by other eggs, but it didn't work. My monster would have to go hungry :(

I enjoyed this! As others said, the chickens/eggs got stuck, but I think that's kind of the point - you can dislodge them with the next one. Nice art/animations, and nice work getting it done in one day.

Great little game. Gets pretty jammy in there after some time. You scoped well, but didn't shy away from a strange theme. Why chickens? Why eggs? Why the tentacled The Thing swallowing them? We shall never know, but its a good peggle-esque! Nice work
