I don't know what's happening, after I destroy the chicken in the first level, the level just restarts, but without the chicken, why can't I access the other levels?

Developer

Ah sorry, the chickens are just easter eggs. The goal is to get to the white box on the left side. Should have marked them. Thanks for playing!

Really love the mechanics, super simple yet they're quite hard to master, every level is unique and good! I was a little weirded out when I got the egg in the basket, funny audio lol, but the every other audio fit perfectly, the physics of the egg are very nice (the way it cracks). Well done!

Submitted(+1)

Oh man, the sound effects really do the trick for this one. That egg crunch that gets louder and louder, **chef's kiss**! I like the simplicity, both in term of the mechanics and the presentation. It gets to the point quickly. The challenge is also where I think it should be. I mean, I am throwing an egg around. ;)

Well done!

Developer

Thank you!

This is a tough one! I like it. Really simple concept with some great challenge. Good work!

Developer

Thank you! Means a lot!

Chicken go boom. Nicely done.

You really nailed the ambience! It feels we are on a mission, I didn't expect that. It's a very nice game, I had lots of fun playing
I knew I shouldn't trust that chicken

Thanks a lot Cleo! Means alot :)

Simple mechanics, but you explored them well. It would be nice to have an indicator of when the egg will jump, so that the player can time their moves better. The game is fun! (I had a heart attack when the chicken freaking exploded XD)

Developer(+1)

Thanks! There is an audio cue but I think I might have mixed it to low since many has said the same thing. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Important info like this is nice to have both audio and visuals anyway, you never know when someone is playing without audio or low volume
Good luck on your game dev journey!

interesting idea quite challenging but fun. gj :)

Ok, as annoying as I found controls to be in this game, it made me laugh quite a bit... I definitely did NOT expect the chicken to commit explosion!

That was a fun experience for sure!

Submitted

really fun game to play good job !

Great game!!

Developer

Thank you!

After I got used to the controls, it became quite smooth, and the chicken explosion made me laugh out loud. Great job!

Submitted(+1)

Wow, that's a really clever game. On the first level I thought it is too simple, but with other physical mechanics it becomes quite challenging! Good job!

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

Nice fun game! I'd love it to see a small visual cue, before the egg jumps so you can time your actions!

Developer

Thanks! Did you reach the end? Yeah I didn't have time to add that but I have a sound cue that rises before the jump. Kept it kind of low to not make it to obvious.

Submitted

You're welcome. I did not reach the end cause I was having a bit of trouble timing my jumps. I did not notice the sound cue. But I did encounter a bug that might have caused it. When I initially started the game there was no sound at all. Then, after ~10 seconds it crashed. Then it ran again on its own. Then it crashed again. Then it ran again on its own and it did have sound. And it never crashed again.

A very cool concept and execution! The only thing that was bothersome was the sounds, they were a bit intrusive. Everything else is very smooth and interesting!

Developer(+1)

Okay good to know! Any sounds in particular?

Submitted

I think it was the switch platform sound that was most out of character 🙈

Submitted(+1)

Fun game and the explosion with the chicken was a great addition. Once getting through the initial controls it becomes very fluid. 

Submitted

Really cool!

Really cool!

Developer

Thanks man!

Super fun! and the mechanics are really smooth and intuitive!

Developer

Thanks man!

I really enjoyed the gameplay. Interesting mechanic, well implemented. Though the controls for the platforms are a bit hard to use.

Developer

Thanks! When throwing the egg or other times?

Submitted

The throwing was difficult, but that's fine as a mechanic. I didn't like or understand (at first) about using the arrows to switch between the platforms. It makes the game a bit harder than it should be in my opinion

Developer

Ah okay, you can use mouseWheel and or W,S to switch between the platforms. Maybe that's not what you meant?

Submitted(+1)

Ah I didn't know about the mouse wheel. But yes, that what I meant
