This game is so cool! I love everything about it! The tutorial seems a bit overwhelming at first, but everything falls into place so nicely! As I said: This is incredibly cool!

It brought back good memories of Metal Gear Solid! Simple and well executed!

Nice entry here, looks good and is a cute game, but the music does get a bit much after a while! Great work though. Good entry!

Very nice. Played a few levels. The in-game instructions felt overwhelming(and the game text wall description!), but once I started playing it wasn't too bad

Good chicken game! ^_^

Looks cool! The text dump at the start of the game could be smoother if the introduction to the game rules were gradual, either spread across levels or shown when you first encounter them.

Nice game! The visuals are cool and I like the theme, but the instructions at the start feel a bit overwhelming.

Great concept! The levels were a bit too difficult for my taste, but that's just a minor remark :)

Great job on the style, felt like the difficulty curve peaked very hard after the "tutorial" level having to skip turns and calculate patterns almost immediately. Didn't get quite far but that was just a skill-issue.

What I learned that life of a regular chicken is hella hard

The first levels were great and I thought : what a nice progression.. then on the third or fourth : incredible hard! ... that is such a shame, because I had a good time until I got frustrated by the farmer!

nicely done! i like the concept and art style a lot :)

5/5 in all categories from me.Awesome !.

Nice game, really impressive amount of features for a compo game!! The initial instructions felt a bit overwhelming though, I know it's hard to do that on such short notice, but maybe you could show the enemy or tile-specific tips only when needed (or skip some, since a few are pretty self-explanatory). Anyway, that doesn't take away from the fun. Some levels were quite tough: that farmer hatching the egg is gonna haunt my dreams tonight. Overall, great job!

There are an amazing amount of mechanics going on in this game! I think one of the hardest parts of making a puzzle game are the levels, but the difficulty seems to ramp nicely. Great job and cute art too!

Fun game! Sometimes the farmers got stuck and didn’t move, which made it easier to progress — let’s call that a feature, not a bug, haha Great game overall, the sounds and visuals are awesome. 10/10 chickens!

Great game, really cool the number of levels you have and the variety in them! The instructions confused me a bit so I skipped them and I didn't have any problems at all. The levels were very fun to solve, though level 10 was a bit too hard for me with the super range dog. The mechanics of the game fall in place so nicely as well: the fact that you can hide behind or even trap dogs behind wall, the ability to dodge foxes and other 2 speed enemies if you move a certain way, these were all very cool. One thing that was frustrating was that I kept accidentally pressing R instead of C, but that's totally my fault. Overall awesome game!

Wow, kudos for using pure JavaScript! I like how the game feels and looks, good job!

kenekkoo 2025-10-11 13:50

super fun entry ! I adore the artstyle and it can get really challenging in the best way !

atsh 2025-10-11 18:13

I'm really bad at this games, so I wish the difficulty curve was a little slower. Otherwise - cute game, well done

daupoh 2025-10-11 18:30

nice control, good flow, which teach you about mech one by one. Good job!

dhim 2025-10-11 20:51

You are missing the source code for a compo entry ?

cydouzo 2025-10-12 11:10

Excellent polish!

firellon 2025-10-13 15:27

Those farmers are pretty hard to get away from, even making noise does not always help

Solid entry.

It's a pretty funny game. The sounds of jumping and collecting eggs are atmospheric, and the graphics are also good. The tutorial screens are a bit too much information. The first two levels were fun and exciting, but unfortunately, I got stuck on the third level.

sevansevan 2025-10-19 20:44

Impressive amount of features! Hard level, lacking an undo button maybe?

kalbshack 2025-10-23 10:56

Funny game with a pretty polished gameloop. Great work.

Alright, level 10 got me. The fox picking up the eggs makes it so much harder. Not in a bad way, but man some of the eggs around the foxes are brutal. I'm not sure what the day night cycle is for. Is it just obscuring your vision? At first I thought there would be a layer of stealth involved, like maybe some tasks could only be done at night, or some enemies would sleep, but I don't think that's the case. Anyway, cool game!
