Asburd humor! Quite challenging too, I like that instead of just getting a full gameover, you can improve and go again.

Who would have thought play as a chicken and get chased by a million people would be so much fun! Anyway, I really like the concept, it's a really fun little game.
I do have one question though: is there ANYONE in this game that would willingly pay their debt?
what a cool chicken. great job!
@accardo nope, the payments are just too steep for them :(
Surprisingly fun game, there was more strategy involved than i expected there to be. The upgrades are a nice touch and all the dialogue popups were pretty hilarious.
Great idea! Really loved the execution and how hard it got once you have people from 5 or more houses looking for you. Had a lot of fun.
So funny! Debt collectors usually scary but you make a fun concept using the idea of it. I like that I keep trying again and again despite of the short experience. The way you put upgrades in the end is also increasing the replayability. The artwork is really effective and charming too (love the 16bit chicken!)
Great job!
@marcherin Thank you! The art is 99% RareOnion's. When you look at it up close, you start to understand how much work pixel artists put in.
wonderful :) i mean bogawkk
Nice, fun challenge. With a good sense of humor.
It's really fun! It's simple but works well. Difficulty feels well balanced as well. Well done!
It's nice to play, but I couldn't get through, after opening 8 houses there are too many people. The graphics are nice, it feels like I'm back in Stardew Valley)
Ruthless haha Make soup out of that chicken. Nice art. Did get too difficult too fast
I love how hilarious this game is from the very core of its design all the way up to the small details like the chicken's ridiculous cowboy hat.
I got all 10, allowing me to finally live out my anti-stardew dream of closing down a peaceful american city with only the power of anti-consumer financial practices :)
@borodaolen @breadstick yep, like Stardew Valley but cursed :)
@ehtd there was supposed to be a roasted chicken on a fire on the upgrades screen, but had no time left
fun and funny. was a good challenge. came for the artwork, stayed for the dialogue lol. nice jam
Fun game just had to finish it 10/10. Topic is a bit grim but then again it happens.
I love to see games made with Phaser! Such a funny game, I enjoyed it so much. Congrats for the work! I just hope a chicken never comes to my house to collect debts!
@salvation Thank you! I was thinking should I finish it or not coz it's kinda dark.
@azahara Thank you, phaser is a blast to work with. You have so much freedom. No worries, Mr. Cluck is already cooked!
cute absurdity, enjoyable visual style
Any game with birds in them is an instant win for me. Loved the idea, maybe too much power for a chicken but then again, I like chicken.
my favourite game sofar, i was already sold on the theme but then i was able to upgrade the chicken! I guess you reap what you sow when you create so many homeless people but managed it nonetheless :D
@bananabobbert Thank you so much! Yep, that was the idea ;)
THIS GAME IS AWESOME! I absolutely loved the graphics and humor! Definitely one of the best this time!💜 ⭐ 💜
This is so simple yet so enjoyable. I had a lot of fun running from those homeless heads. Nice work
So, now we know, why does the chicken cross the road. That's awesome! Aggressive chicken in Stardew Valley is really fun! I've found myself trying to collect debts again and again. That was a really cool discovery, that it's rogue-like, by the way. Great job!
Awesome game idea! Love to collect taxes)
Funny crazy twist on the theme! I did it after a couple of tries but I dunno what the upgrades other than Speed do
This was really funny, I managed to beat it on my first try :D
Awesome game!
