"Don't you dare sliding, silly chicken!"
I am not good with platform base games but i really liked yours. Slippery platforms and throwing egg mechanic is brilliant! Level design introduces and challenges the player in the right way. The art is simple and looks great together, it just fits to the game :D Congratulations!
First PICO-8 this jam I played! MUCH LOVE FOR PICO! Great work!
Fun game! I love the NES style aesthetic! The chicken gets really floaty when not holding the egg but I think thats just my taste. Very well put together! Great work!
Cool looking game and love the art style! The gameplay is super fun!
Beautiful game! I really enjoyed it, the graphics are great and the chicken transporting its egg is adorable. Great mechanics, nice movement, nice features - Good job!
Really polished and well looking game! It has a good concept and some interesting and challenging levels. Well done!
Simplistic style and great platforming level, but the live system makes it very frustrating to play especially after learning the mechanics just to fail once and reset the whole game.
Overall a challenging but fun and original game!
Nice graphics, the chicken was very funny.
Art and music are good but controls sometimes cause me to die. I finished the game in second try. I died 18 times total but i had fun :)
Grounds too slippery and you shouldn't have to start over, but I like the idea of a chicken carrying it's egg down the mountain
This is very fun, the platforming felt really good, felt very polished! The level design is also good, keep things challenging. The art style is also really cute, mixed in well with the sounds. Overall great work! :)
Easily the BEST platformer I have come across! Intuitive controls and fun gameplay! You hit a home run with this one!
Simple and fun! The ground is a little slippery and restarting from the beginning is a little underwhelming, but nothing that a couple of tries cannot solve.
Nice little game, which implements the theme of the jam very well.
Unfotunately, it was just a little frustrating that you have to start all over again when you run out of eggs. Especially because the chicken tends to slide on the floor. Makes sense for a snow level, but doesn't make the platformer aspect of the game easier.
Despite that, i think this is a very well made game. Good job.
Nice Pixel art. Good concept. Maybe give the egg more character.
BTW, Would love for you to try my game too.
It is an Action Platformer with unique controls.

Quite game ; I like this chicken and egg design;but I running out of lives in 3rd level;that makes me sad
Just speedran the game:
Lives and ice physics do not go well together. Having to restart from the beginning was brutal. Aside from that I really enjoyed it, but when I game over and restart from the beginning I just have no motivation to keep going.
I'm not a huge fan of the lives system, it feels unfairly punishing. I do like your concept though, and it is fun. It is also fairly realized for 48 hours. Good job!
